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:

The DI-500/510 or DI-750/760 Series instrument

Communications cable assembly designed to connect the instrument to your computer's parallel (or printer) port

Power adapter and power cord

ActiveX Control Library with built-in documentation

This Hardware Manual.

If an item is missing or damaged, call DATAQ Instruments at 330-668-1444. We will guide you through the appropri-
ate steps for replacing missing or damaged items. Save the original packing material in the unlikely event that your 
unit must, for any reason, be sent back to DATAQ Instruments, Inc.

Connecting the Instrument to your Computer

DI-500/510 and DI-750/760 Series instruments use your computer’s parallel (or printer) port to interface digital and 
analog signals to your computer. Installation is as simple as connecting the provided communications cable to your 
computer.

1.

Plug the appropriate end of the supplied communications cable to the 25-pin female connector labeled PRINTER 
PORT on the DI-500/510 or DI-750/760 Series instrument.

2.

Connect the other end of the cable to your computer's parallel port.
