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.
