STEP B.4 –
Power-up the System Components
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, you
should consult the Power Management Section of your DaqBook/2000 Series User’s
Manual (p/n 1103-0901) before doing so.
How to make the connection:
1. Using the unit’s power switch, turn the DaqBook/2000E or WaveBook/516E “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 DaqBook/2000E
or WaveBook/516E.
If using a power source other than the adapter, consult the Power Management Section of your
user’s manual prior to doing so.
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 DaqBook/2000E or the WaveBook/516E by placing the power switch to the
“1” position. The power led will light up.
Reference Note:
The power management and power requirements sections of the associated user’s manual should
be reviewed prior to powering up a system.
