Input Sequencer

Analog, digital and counter inputs can be scanned synchronously based either on an internal programmable timer, or

an external clock source. Analog and digital outputs can be synchronized to either of these clocks.

Scan Clock Sources: 2

1.

Internal, programmable from 5

µs to 5.96 hours maximum in 1 µs steps

2.

External, TTL level input up to 200 kHz maximum

Programmable parameters per scan: channel (random order), gain, unipolar or bipolar

Depth: 16,384 locations

On-board Channel to channel scan rate: 5 or 10

µs per channel, programmable

Expansion Channel Scan Rate: 5 or 10

µs per channel, programmable; 1 ms with DBK90 or DBK100

External Acquisition Scan Clock Input

Maximum Rate: 200 kHz

Clock Signal Range: 0V to +5V

Minimum Pulse Width: 50 ns high, 50 ns low

External Sync Ports

Number of External Sync Ports: 2, on rear panel

Maximum Number of Units to be Synchronized: 4 units, scan-synchronous (post trigger)

Maximum Length of Sync Cables: 15 feet (4.57 m), total for all cables

Triggering

Trigger Sources:6, individually selectable for starting and stopping an acquisition. Stop acquisition can occur on a
different channel than start acquisition; stop acquisition can be triggered via modes 2, 4, 5, or 6 described below.
Pre-trigger is supported with fixed or variable pre-trigger periods.

1. Single-Channel Analog Hardware Trigger.

Any analog input channel, including any of the analog expansion channels, can be software programmed as
the analog trigger channel.

Input Signal Range: -10V to +10V max

Trigger

Level: Programmable, 11-bit resolution

Hysteresis: Programmable, 11-bit resolution

Latency: 5 µs max

2. Single-Channel Analog Software Trigger.

Any analog input channel, including any of the analog expansion channels, can be selected as the software
trigger channel. If the trigger channel involves a calculation, such as with temperature, then the driver
automatically compensates for the delay required to calculate the reading, resulting in a maximum latency of
one scan period.

Input Signal Range: Anywhere within the range of the selected trigger channel

Trigger

Level: Programmable, 16-bit resolution, including “window triggering”

Hysteresis: Programmable, 16-bit resolution

Latency: One scan period max.

3. Single-Channel Digital Trigger: A separate digital input is provided for digital triggering.

Input Signal Range: -15V to +15V max.

Trigger

Level: TTL

Minimum Pulse Width: 50 ns high, 50 ns low

Latency: 5

µs max.

4. Digital Pattern Triggering: 8 or 16-bit pattern triggering on any digital input. Programmable for trigger on

equal, above, below, or within or outside of a window. Individual bits can be masked for “don’t care”
condition.

Latency: One scan period maximum.
