Power-up Notice for WaveBook/516E and WBK25 Applications:
When powering up the data acquisition system it is important that the WaveBook/516E or WBK25 is
powered last, and that the most remote system components are powered first. Other power-up
sequences will result in software’s failure to recognize all components.*
• First, power-on the WBK expansion modules.
• Second, power-on the WBK40 or WBK41, or DBK modules that are connected to the expansion
ports of the WaveBook/516E or WBK25.
• Finally, power-on the WaveBook/516E or WBK25.
* An exception to this power-up scheme is to power-on the entire system at once.
