introduction 1 1. introduction congratulations on your purchase of a DI-500/510 or di-750/760 series data acquisition/measurement system. these instruments permit data acquisition on ibm personal computers and compatibles from the windows environment. this manual describes how to connect and use the DI-500 /510 and di-750/760 series instruments. from an opera- tional point of view, all of the instruments are approximate ly the same. throughout the majority of this manual, enough similarity exists to describe each instrument with th e same procedure. the conventions used to describe these universal applications are ?d i-500 series? (which means that the proce dure/information applies equally to the di- 500-16, DI-500-32, di-510-32, di-510 -48, di-510-64, or any of the chan nel expansion instruments), ?di-750 series? (applying to the di-750-16 and di-750-32) and ?di-760 series? (applyin g to the di-760-32, di-760-48, and di-760-64). in cases where the resemblance is not equal, separate procedures/descriptions exist for each instrument. features the DI-500/510 and di-750/760 series offers the following features: ? complete portability. connects to the parallel port of a ny desktop, transportable, notebook, or laptop pc-compat- ible computer. ? per channel software-configurable settings: input gain ; signal averaging; input and output measurement range. ? 250khz burst sampling to minimize channel skew. ? eight each digital input and output lines. ? a/d subsystem provides 14-bit resolution. ? d/a subsystem provides 14-bit resolution. ? programmed i/o (pio ) data transfers. ? signal averaging of up to 32,768 consecutive readings per channel. free datasheet http:/// free datasheet http:/// DI-500/510 series and di-750/760 series hardware manual specifications 3 2. specifications signal connections all portable instruments allow dual-access analog input si gnal connections. connect your input signals to the sheathed banana jacks or to the screw terminals. digital inputs and outputs are accessi ble from the 37-pin auxil- iary port connector on DI-500-16, di-750-16, di-510-48 and di-760-48 instruments only. all desktop and rack-mounted instruments support screw terminal input signal connections only (no sheathed banana jacks). interface characteristics compatible computer archit ecture any pc architecture. connects to co mputer via the parallel (or printer) port. supports standard, bi-directional, or epp parallel ports. analog channels DI-500-16, di-750-16: 16 signal-conditioned channels DI-500-32, di-750-32: 32 high-level channels di-510-32, di-760-32: 32 signal-conditioned channels di-510-48, di-760-48: 16 signal-conditione d channels and 32 high-level channels di-510-64, di-760-64: 64 high-level channels (note: all instruments are expandable to 240 channels) all analog inputs analog resolution 14-bit, 1 part in 8192 sample throughput rate standard parallel port: 40,000 samples/second max bi-directional parallel port: 80,000 samples/second max enhanced parallel port (epp): 250,000 samples/second max gain ranges 1, 2, 4, 8 (software selectable per channel) isolation 300v channel-to-c hannel; 600v input-to-output high level analog inputs type differential measurement range full scale (intended) 10vfs @ av=1 maximum analog input without damage 30v common mode rejection 80 db min @ av=1 gain accuracy < 0.05% input offset voltage 5 adc counts input settling time 4s to 0.01% at all gains input impedance 30k with power on; 20k with power off signal conditione d analog inputs measurement range full scale 5v if di-5b module is bypassed - otherwise defined by di-5b module all other specs defined by di-5b modules (module dependent) maximum analog input without damage 240v free datasheet http:/// DI-500/510 series and di-750/760 series hardware manual specifications 4 analog outputs number of channels two resolution 14-bit; 1 part in 8192 update rate 500,000 samples/second max output voltage ranges 10v current drive/impedance 5ma/0.3 output settling time to 0.01% 4s digital input/output capacity 8 each input and output compatibility ttl compatible max source current 0.4ma @ 2.4v max sink current 8ma @ 0.5v digital input termination 4.7k pull-up to +5vdc input scan list capacity 240 elements output scan list capacity 16 elements triggering pre-trigger length 64k samples post-trigger length 64k samples trigger channel any channel trigger level hysteresis 8-bit (256 counts) power requirements DI-500 and di-750 series instruments 700ma @ 12vdc typical, excluding 5b modules di-510 and di-760 series instruments 1000ma @ 12vdc typical, excluding 5b modules power supply voltage range 9 to 36vdc physical/environmental box dimensions portable models: 15?"d by 19?"w by 7?"h (500 models) 20?"d by 24"w by 8?"h (510 models) desktop models: 16.7"d by 16.88"w by 3.5"h (both models) i/o connector 1 male, 1 female 37-pin d-type operating environment component temperature: 0o to 70o c relative humidity: 5% to 90% non condensing storage environment temperature: -55o to 150o c relative humidity: 5% to 90% non condensing free datasheet http:/// DI-500/510 series and di-750/760 series hardware manual getting started 5 3. getting started unpacking the following items are included with a typical DI-500/510 or di-750/760 series system. verify that you have the following: ?
