VC4000DAQ Performance Computer
Over 25 years of research and development have gone into the design of the Vericom VC4000DAQ making it the most
innovative instrument for measuring tire to road friction and vehicle performance. Vericoms reputation for excellence is
truly displayed within the workings for the VC4000DAQ. Vericom is known world-wide for its accuracy in calculating
vehicle speed and distance from acceleration and time. Now with OBDII and 5 HZ GPS interface the VC4000DAQ is its
own working test module. Several more innovative enhancements have also been added.
The Accelerometer is a tri axis (X, Y, & Z) selectable range 2G to 6G with a variable sample rate of 1Hz, 10Hz, 100Hz,
500Hz or 1000Hz. Resolution is 16 bits with a bandwidth of 2,469Hz.
Mounting is now even easier. Utilizing the RAM mount, only one suction cup is needed. Digital leveling (self-leveling)
is done automatically. A variety of mounting brackets are now available including a handlebar mount for motorcycles and
bicycles. The complete unit comes in smaller camera-type case which is convenient to transport.
For Traffic Crash Investigation a built in yaw rate sensor and magnetometer (compass) have been added to aid in the
investigation of CSYs and spin outs.
Formulas for calculating vehicle speed have been expanded to include an acceptable range table to aid in court room presentations.
More Sensor ports, up to 18 sensors using the quick connect plug and play feature may be easily installed. Profile will
support all 16 sensors including 4 tachometer inputs, GPS and OBDII.
One Analog output port is available to connect a sensor to another data acquisition system.
Profile 4 software is a powerful graphic software that allows the user to graph, overlay, table, display and store the data.You can easily analyze and compare information using the preprogrammed graphs and tables or design your own reports
and graphs for presentations and courtroom testifying. The software may be used on several computers without any additional
cost.
Firmware (the software that runs the Vericom) is a menu select format and all upgrades can be made from the internet.
Simple calibration check procedures are displayed on the screen with step by step instructions.
PC interface has been upgraded from USB & RS232 to include Bluetooth, SD flash memory card and streaming data for
unlimited memory.

Profile Professional software is a powerful graphic software that creates tables, line graphs, analog meters, overlays,
stores data and performs calculations with range tables. Profile Professions is designed for courtroom
presentations. It is an essential requirement for comparing ABS to standard brakes and lateral G applications.
Profile Professional software is not licensed and may be installed on several computers at no extra cost.
