"I would be interested in what anyone considers a minimum acceptible sampling rate. As you might guess, there may be less sampling rates required to know where a car is and what it's g-force is at any
second, than perhaps you might need for test purposes."
Randy,
The g-analyst samples at 100 Hz and averages 10 per 0.1 seconds and reads out the average. For some of our engineering needs, 1000 Hz is a minimum and the higher the better. The g-Analyst is a tri-axial accelerometer measuring and reading out in each orthogonal axis. The DOS software doesn't tend to work well with Wim95, WinNT, etc. So we tend to use the ascii files.
