1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The USB-2401 is a 24-bit, 4-channel simultaneous-sampling uni-
versal input USB DAQ module featuring built-in signal conditioning
and direct measurement of commonly used sensors, including
current output transducers, thermocouple, RTD, load cell, strain
gauge, and resistance. Individual channels can be programmed to
measure different signal types.
The USB-powered USB-2401 is equipped with removable
screw-down terminals for easy device connectivity, and the
included multi-functional stand fully supports desktop, rail, or wall
mounting.
The USB-2401 is suitable for basic measurement applications
requiring high resolution and accuracy, laboratory research and
material testing environments, and industrial temperature mea-
surement. U-Test, a free ready-to-use testing program is included
to enable operation or testing of all ADLINK USB DAQ series func-
tions with no programming requirements.
