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 approximately the same. Throughout the majority of this manual,
enough similarity exists to describe each instrument with the same procedure. The conventions used to describe these
universal applications are “DI-500 Series” (which means that the procedure/information applies equally to the DI-
500-16, DI-500-32, DI-510-32, DI-510-48, DI-510-64, or any of the channel expansion instruments), “DI-750
Series” (applying to the DI-750-16 and DI-750-32) and “DI-760 Series” (applying 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.
