RedLab 1024LS User's Guide 

Introducing the RedLab 1024LS 

Connecting a RedLab 1024LS to your computer is easy 

Installing a data acquisition device has never been easier.   

ƒ

 

The RedLab 1024LS relies upon the Microsoft Human Interface Device (HID) class drivers. The HID class 

drivers ship with every copy of Windows that is designed to work with USB ports. We use the Microsoft 
HID because it is a standard, and its performance delivers full control and maximizes data transfer rates for 
your RedLab 1024LS. No third-party device driver is required. 

ƒ

 

The RedLab 1024LS is plug-and-play. There are no jumpers to position, DIP switches to set, or interrupts 

to configure. 

ƒ

 

You can connect the RedLab 1024LS before or after you install the software, and without powering down 

your computer first. When you connect an HID to your system, your computer automatically detects it and 
configures the necessary software. You can connect and power multiple HID peripherals to your system 
using a USB hub.  

ƒ

 

You can connect your system to various devices using a standard four-wire cable. The USB connector 

replaces the serial and parallel port connectors with one standardized plug and port combination. 

ƒ

 

You do not need a separate power supply module. The USB automatically delivers the electrical power 

required by each peripheral connected to your system.  

ƒ

 

Data can flow two ways between a computer and peripheral over USB connections.
