Hardware and software
PSI5 POD
The PSI5 POD offers selected functions of the PSI5-Simulyzer and is therefore the right interface box for less complex measurement situations.
Professional data simulation
Facts about the PSI5 POD
In addition to the standard version, SesKion also offers modified versions as well as advanced hardware and software solutions for special measurement requirements.
- Standard Windows Gui application (optional): The protocol-specific Gui application offers a wide range of settings from the definition of signals, baud rates and error detection to trigger events. The visualization of the PSI5 bus communication facilitates troubleshooting and can also be easily saved. The PSI5 data is recorded with time stamps, whereby both import and export of data is possible.
- API-ANSI-C (included in the box)
- LabVIEW Lib (optional)

PSI5 POD
The PSI5-POD takes the role of an ECU and supplies the sensors with power and sync-pulses. The data communication between the PSI5-POD and up to 4 sensors is displayed and recorded.
