Overview
ENLIGHT Sensing Analysis Software is included with Luna's HYPERION sensing interrogation systems. It provides a single suite of tools for data acquisition, computation, data storage and analysis of optical sensor networks.
The software combines the functions of traditional sensor software with the specific needs of optical sensor systems, supporting optimization of optical properties during the design and implementation phases of an optical sensor system. It covers interrogator configuration, sensor configuration and management, data acquisition and logging, data processing and alarming, and data display and visualization.
Data archive
ENLIGHT's Data Archive automatically stores active FBG and sensor elements from the moment they are defined, giving a baseline of measurement data. Archived FBG and sensor elements can be plotted and viewed in the Archive tab, retrieved through the ENLIGHT Remote Command Interface (TCP commands), or accessed by a user-developed web application based on a RESTful HTTP interface.
Platform
The original Micron Optics datasheet states that ENLIGHT is included with all x25 and x30 core Optical Sensing Interrogators, and is also available pre-loaded on the sp125 or sp130 sensor processing units that interface directly with sm125 or sm130 Optical Sensing Interrogators.
Key Features

- Calculated macro-sensor elements combining two or more FBGs
- Pre-configured sensor templates with auto-insertion of standard constants
- Up to four charts displayed simultaneously, each with multiple sensor display capability
- Custom application images with positioned sensor status indicators
- Data saving by stop/start time, scheduled, repeated or triggered events, including pre-trigger data
- E-mail notifications by type and condition for multiple addresses
- Relay triggering to physical devices for audible alarms and warning lights
- Remote Command Interface for custom GUIs, data streaming and background operation
- Data Archive queries via TCP commands, RESTful HTTP interface or Silverlight web interface
