STEP 4 – Power-up the System
What you will need:
A power supply with a range of +10 VDC to +30 VDC.
The power supply needs to have a male DIN5 connector.
Note: The switching-mode power supply that is commonly used with these systems has an input
range of 100 VAC to 240 VAC at 50 Hz to 60 Hz. The power supply’s output [to the
device] is typically 15 VDC @ 2.7 amps via a DIN5 connector.
Note: Various AC adapter models support power grids of USA, Europe, Japan, and Asia.
Reference Note: It is possible to use a VDC power source other than the commonly
used switching-mode power supply, often referred to as an adapter. However, be sure
to consult the power-related sections of DBK Basics before doing so. The DBK Basics
segment immediately follows chapter 1 of this user’s manual.
Reference Note:
Refer to the power-related sections of DBK Basics before powering up a system. The
DBK Basics
section is located near the end of this user’s manual.
How to make the connection:
In the following steps we use the term “Daq Device” to mean a DaqBook/2020, DaqBook/2001,
DaqBook/2005, DaqOEM/2001, or a DaqOEM/2005, as applicable to your system.
1. Using the unit’s power switch, turn the Daq device “OFF.” The switch will be in the “0”
position and the power LED will be unlit.
2. Connect the DIN5 end of the adapter’s cable to the power in connector on the Daq device.
3. Connect the adapter’s plug to a standard AC outlet.
4. If your adapter has a power switch, position it to “ON.”
5.
T urn ON the Daq device by placing the power switch to the “1” position. The power led will
light up.
