1-4 An Introduction to WaveBooks & WBKs

WaveBook/512 and WaveBook/512H
WBK16
Strain-Gage Module
8 channels via Standard Female DB9
WBK16 is an 8-channel strain-gage signal-conditioning module. Up
to eight WBK16 modules (64 channels) can be accommodated by
the WaveBook and scanned at 1 µs/channel. Almost all bridge
configurations are supported via a bridge-completion network and
software. High-gain differential-amplifier applications are also
supported. Software controls bridge configuration, gain, offset,
excitation voltage, polarity, filtering, and the calibration process.
WBK17
Counter-Input Module with Quadrature Encoder
Support
8 channels via Removable Screw Terminal Blocks
The WBK17 is an 8-channel multi-function counter/encoder module.
Each of the high-speed, 32-bit counter channels can be configured
for counter, period, pulse width, time between edges, or encoder
modes. All channels are capable of measuring analog inputs that are
digitized by a Wavebook/512A, WaveBook/516, or WaveBook/516A.
Note: WBK17 can not be used with WaveBook/512 or
WaveBook/512H.
WBK20A
WBK21
WBK20A – PCMCIA/EPP Interface Card
(for linking WaveBook to a Notebook PC)
WBK21 – ISA/EPP Interface Plug-in Board
(For linking WaveBook to a desktop PC)
These devices are shipped with separate documentation and are not
detailed in this manual; they are, however, discussed briefly in the
WBK20A and WBK21 Document Modules.
WBK30
WaveBook Memory Options
WBK30 is a DRAM-based memory board that installs inside a
WaveBook. There are three models of WBK30 available; each
significantly increases the capacity of WaveBook's standard data
buffer of 64 K samples. Capacities are as follows:
WBK30/16— 16 MB
WBK30/64— 64 MB
WBK30/128— 128 MB
WBK61 and WBK62
WBK61: High-Voltage Adapter with 200:1 Voltage
Divider (1 channel)
WBK62: High-Voltage Adapter with 20:1 Voltage
Divider (1 channel)
WBK61 and WBK62 are single-channel high-voltage adapters that
can be used with the WaveBook or WBK10/10H/10A expansion
modules. In addition, WBK61 and WBK62 can be used in conjunction
with WBK11, WBK12, and WBK13 series cards.
WBK61 and WBK62 include safety-style banana-jacks for the high
and low inputs, and 60-inch (152 cm) cables with probe tips and
alligator clips for easy input connection.
