Control Panel. If the device is not configured or properly installed, worksheets will not
run. However, they can still be created and modified.
Notes Regarding Daisy-Chains
Example of WaveBook Daisy-Chain
Hardware Configuration (Matches Daisy-Chain)
A. Ensure that WBK modules are always positioned in sequential order.
B. Never leave a gap in connector assignments. For example, if three WBKs were added, they must
occupy connectors 0-1-2, not 0-1-3.
C. Make sure that the WBKs in the connector list are in the same order as they appear in the physical
hardware daisy chain (see previous figure).
D. The WBK11, WBK12, WBK13, and WBK30 options are automatically detected when a WaveBook is
selected.
E. Each WaveBook can have up to eight WBKs attached to it. The first WBK will have an identification of [0]
and the eighth WBK will have an identification number of [7] as indicated in the following figure.
