Your DAQ XP graph voltage was an excellent starting point. In case you are wondering what I am using this for, I am at http://www.reasonablepower.com . The Data Acquisition board manufacturers that I have found are quite helpful. Again, thank you. Mr. Leslie Wong, thank you.

I am looking for some EASY to use Turn-Key-systems. I supply the Windows computer, the turning shaft, the generator to be tested. That is all. I need a price for: (1) A tachometer which is hooked up to my Windows computer, which I can see the speed of a turning shaft, and automatically graph the speed of that turning shaft over time 24x7. seperately, (2) A volt-meter which is hooked up to my Windows computer, which I can see the voltage of the tested generator (less than 260 volts), and automatically graph the voltage over time 24x7. seperately, (3) An amp-meter (or a current meter) which is hooked up to my Windows computer, which I can see the amperage of the tested generator (less than 200 amps volts), and automatically graph the amperage over time 24x7. Please tell me where I can get the previous items. DACs that work with some non-specific "other manufacturer" are worse than totally worthless to me. I have been getting vague answers from other sources. Please help. Thanks Please help with some Turn-Key-solutions.

I don't really know where to point you, unless you live near a big city library that might have back issues. Call Popular Science? It must have been 1969 or 1970. You could take a regular tach, or one with an indicator light and hook it up to an oscillator to produce a tone. Something like a LM555. Makezine.com just had this <a href="http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2008/03/diy_tachometer_1.html?CMP=OTC-0D6B48984890" rel="nofollow">DIY Tachometer</a>. Good Luck. Have fun. Michael,
