DI–710 Series and DI-715B Series Hardware Manual
Introduction
2
•
14-bit A/D converter for high resolution measurement accuracy.
•
16-entry input scan list allows you to scan any sequence of input channels at any available gain.
•
The Stand-alone option allows the user to configure a recording session through their PC then record data in the
field to an SD card (
without
being connected to their PC).
Analog Inputs
DI-710
models provide 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog inputs (programmable per channel) that allow your
analog signals to be converted into 14-bit digital data via an on board A/D converter. Two removable 16 position ter-
minal blocks allow you to easily connect and record signals. The DI-710 features the following software-programma-
ble input measurement ranges:
DI-715B
models provide 16
fixed
single-ended analog inputs that allow your analog signals to be converted into 14-
bit digital data via an on board A/D converter. Differential input is not supported. Channels 9-16 are accessible
through use of a DI-705 (see "The DI-705" on page 42). The DI-715B features the following software-programmable
input measurement ranges:
Digital Input and Output
All DI-710 and DI-715B models contain 8 software-programmable digital lines (bits) for input/output operations.
These lines provide an interface for the transfer of data between user memory and a peripheral device connected to
the instrument. Digital inputs can monitor alarms or sensors with TTL outputs, while digital outputs can drive TTL
inputs on control or measurement equipment. Remote control can be utilized with bits 0 and 1 and is easily accessed
using W
IN
D
AQ
Acquisition software or, for stand-alone models, in the stand-alone setup panel. To avoid using an
analog input channel for Digital I/O, Channel 17 may be enabled as the digital channel. To use the Remote Control
features in W

AQ
Acquisition software either Channel 1 or Channel 17
must
be configured as the Digital Input
channel. The digital bits on a DI-715B are only accessible through a DI-705 (see "The DI-705" on page 42).
