Introducing the E-1608-OEM

The E-1608-OEM is compatible with both TCP/IP (IPv4 only) and user datagram protocol (UDP) network
protocols.

The E-1608-OEM provides the following features:

 Four differential (DIFF) or eight single-ended (SE) analog input channels (16-bit)
 Sample rates up to 250 kS/s aggregate
 Two analog output channels (16-bit)
 Eight individually configurable digital I/O channels
 One counter channel (32-bit) that counts TTL pulses
 Header connectors for field wiring connections and power supply

Ethernet interface

The E-1608-OEM has one built-in 10/100 BASE-T auto-negotiation, high-speed communication port.

With the Ethernet interface, you can remotely access and configure your E-1608-OEM from anywhere on the
network. Only one computer can control the E-1608-OEM at one time. The networking protocols are TCP/IP
and UDP.

A unique media access control (MAC) address is assigned to each device at the factory.

You configure the Ethernet connection settings through software. A network name in the format

E-1608-

xxxxxx

, is assigned to the E-1608-OEM, where

xxxxxx

represents the lower six characters of the device MAC

address.
