SIGNAL CONDITIONING MODULE CHANNEL REFERENCE
These numbers indicate the channel where the DI-5B module is installed. The channel number is also silk-screened
on the board, but when the module is plugged-in, you can no longer read the channel number on the board.
PRINTER PORT
The printer port connects the DI-500/510 or DI-750/760 Series instrument to your computer. It provides a way to get
your signals into your computer. Refer to the section titled “Connecting the Instrument to your Computer” on page 5
for more printer port details.
STATUS LAMPS
All DI-500/510 and DI-750/760 Series instruments except the expansion instruments have two status lamps:
