Learn how CIM and CERN developers designed a distributed system that features a flexible number of configurable DAQ stations based on CompactRIO. All stations are tightly synchronized and can send and receive triggers for recording electrical perturbations simultaneously on the CERN-distributed high-voltage network that supplies the Large Hadron Collider. They ultimately capture the most important information generated during milliseconds across the power system and then save it on a centralized Linux server.
