10. Power Supply – a TR-40U was connected to the POWER IN [DIN 5] connector to supply power at
+10 VDC to +30 VDC for the WBK40, WaveBook/516E, and WBK17.
11. Power Supply – From the WBK17 POWER OUT [DIN 5] +10 VDC to +30 VDC connector to the
WBK10A POWER IN [DIN 5] connector via a CA-115 power cable. The CA-115 is a 6-inch long
cable which has a 5-pin DIN male connector at each end.
CAUTION
An incorrect use of power can damage equipment or degrade performance. Prior to
connecting your devices to power, calculate your system’s power requirements.
Reference Note
Information pertaining to connecting the system to power and calculating the amount of
power needed can be found in the WaveBook User’s Manual. A PDF version is included on
the data acquisition CD and can be accessed from the CD’s intro-screen by using the
* Information regarding the use of CA-37-T cables is provided on page 10.
