WBK18
Dynamic Signal Conditioning Module with
Transducer Electronic Data Sheet support (T.E.D.S).
8 channels via BNC Connectors
WBK18 provides 8 channels of dynamic signal input for WaveBook
systems. Each channel on the WBK18 has independent, software
control for AC or DC coupling, ICP biasing (0 or 4 mA), and low-pass
filter cut-off frequency. The 8-pole Butterworth filter on each channel
is programmable from 5 Hz to 50 kHz, in a 1-2-5 progression. The
filter can also be bypassed, resulting in a bandwidth of greater than
200 kHz.
WBK20A, WBK21, and WBK23
– Three Interface options that can be used to obtain an Enhanced Parallel Port.
WBK20A
PC-Card /EPP Interface
& Cable
WBK21
ISA/EPP Interface
Plug-in Board
WBK20A – PCMCIA/EPP Interface Card and Cable
For linking WaveBook to a Notebook PC. This interface
provides an Enhanced Parallel Port via a PC-Card Slot.
WBK21 – ISA/EPP Interface Plug-in Board
For linking WaveBook to a desktop PC. This interface
provides an Enhanced Parallel Port via an ISA Bus-slot.
WBK23
PCI/EPP Interface Plug-In Board
WBK23 – PCI/EPP Interface Plug-In Board
(For linking WaveBook to a desktop PC)
Provides an Enhanced Parallel Port from a PCI Bus-slot.
These three interfaces are shipped with separate documentation and
are not detailed in this manual.
WBK25
10/100BaseT Ethernet Interface Module
The WBK25 provides high-speed Ethernet connectivity for
WaveBook, DaqBook and WBK40 series products. The WBK25
contains one 10/100BaseT Ethernet port for connection to a PC,
and three expansion ports that can attach to a WaveBook, DaqBook,
WBK40 Series option, or any combination of these devices.
WBK30
WaveBook Memory Options
WBK30 is a DRAM-based memory board that installs inside a
WaveBook. There are three models of WBK30 available; each
significantly increases the capacity of WaveBook's standard data
buffer of 64 K samples. Capacities are as follows:
WBK30/16 - 16 MB
WBK30/64 - 64 MB
WBK30/128 - 128 MB
Note: If a WBK30 option is selected for WaveBook/516E,
it must be installed at the factory.
WBK40
Thermocouple Input Module
14 channels via Mini-T/C Connectors
The WBK40 attaches to any of the three parallel expansion ports on
the WaveBook/516E or the WBK25, and provides 14 thermocouple
input channels. The 14 built-in TC channels accept any type of
thermocouple, including types J, K, S, T, E, B, R, and N. Mini-TC
connections make it quick and easy to attach thermocouples. The
WBK40 can be expanded in 14 channel increments using the DBK84
TC expansion module. A total of 15 DBK84s can be attached to one
WBK40, for a total TC channel capacity of 224 channels.
