LogBook User’s Manual PDF helpful. The PDF manual is included on the Data Acquisition CD and is also

available on our web-site.

WARNING

Electric shock hazard. Turn off power to all system-connected devices prior to connecting or

disconnecting cables, or setting hardware configurations. Failure to do so could result in electric shock

or death, and equipment damage, even under low-voltage conditions.

CAUTION

Use ESD tools, containers, and procedures during setup of DBK cards. Electrostatic

discharge can damage some components. To prevent pin damage, align DBK cards with the

backplane DB37 connectors, then gently press them together.

When using LogBook in attached mode, the PC-Card [in LogBook] must already have the file

logbook.sys.

Otherwise, LogView cannot communicate with LogBook, and LogBook will

appear dead.
