Channels
Edit > Channels: Channels allows you to select which channels on all of your DI-1000 devices you want to acquire
data. Channels are selected by placing a check mark in the appropriate box. You will find the addresses of your
devices under the "Addr" column. If you are only using one device, you will select channels in the row across from
the "1" in the Addr Column. If you are using a four-channel device, you will only be able to select channels 1-4. If
you are using an eight-channel device, you can select channels 1-8. (Channels 1 through 6 are selected in the graphic
below.)
If you have more than one device, you will be able to select more channels. The second device's channels would be
selected across from the 2 in the "Addr" column on the right of the window. These channels are labeled 9-16 and they
correspond with 1-8 on your device. For example, if you wanted to select channels 1-4 and 7-8 on your second
device, you would place a checkmark in the 9-12 and 15-16 boxes. When you are looking at data in the W
IN
D
AQ
software, the channels will be identified by the numbers designated in this window. For example, the third channel
on your second device will be identified as Channel 11. Any more than two devices will follow the same pattern (odd
device addresses will have channels between 1 and 8 and even device addresses will have channels between 9 and
16), although they will have a letter appended to the channel number. For example, device 3 channels will be labeled
1A, 2A, 3A, etc., while device 10 channels will be labeled 9D, 10D, 11D, etc.
Once you have selected the channels you would like to record, click OK.
