INSTALLATION GUIDE

BNC-2120

Connector Accessory for E/M/S/X Series Devices

This installation guide describes how to install, configure, and use your BNC-2120 accessory 
with 68-pin or 100-pin E/M/S/X Series multifunction data acquisition (DAQ) devices. This 
document also contains accessory specifications.

The BNC-2120 has the following features:

Eight BNC connectors for analog input (AI) connection

Onboard temperature reference

Thermocouple connector

Resistor measurement screw terminals

Two BNC connectors for analog output (AO) connection

Screw terminals for digital I/O (DIO) connection with state indicators

Screw terminals for timing I/O (TIO) connection

Two user-defined BNC connectors

A function generator with the following outputs:

Frequency-adjustable, TTL-compatible square wave

Frequency- and amplitude-adjustable sine wave or triangle wave

Quadrature encoder

A 68-pin I/O connector that connects to multifunction DAQ devices

Can be used on a desktop or mounted on a DIN rail
