DATAQ Instruments Application Notes and News
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) Product Preview
Data Acquisition > PLC > < href="https://www.dataq.com/resources/obsolete/products/di-159-plc/">DI-159 PLC We’ve all been there: An application that needs to acquire data AND apply an element of control. Maybe it was a simple test against a limit threshold to set a digital output port. Maybe it was more complex like exerting control over an external process or test Read More
Jumping a DI-5B Module Socket
Data Acquisition > Mixed Measurements Use these pass-through connections to jumper a module socket so the channel passes through to the instrument: Connect "I/O Common" to "-In" Connect "Vout" to "+In" Follow Us
Scaling Non-Zero Offsets With WINDAQ Software
Data Acquisition > Software > WinDaq It wouldn’t be unreasonable to assume that a transducer, at a resting state, would output zero volts. In reality, this is rarely the case. Fortunately, features in WinDaq allow you to scale non-zero offsets. Using real-world examples, our updated application note on the subject shows you how to factor in DC offsets Read More
Strain Gage-Based Transducer and Amplifier Selection and Calibration
Data Acquisition > Mixed Measurements Check out our updated application note on the selection and calibration of amplifiers for strain-gage based transducers. This is an in-depth guide to selecting a transducer/amplifier combination based on supply voltage (excitation) requirements and the sensitivity (gage factor) of both the transducer and amplifier. Scaling to display engineering units (lbs, psi, etc.) using Read More
Using the HMP60 Temperature and Humidity Sensor with a DI-718B, DI-718Bx or DI-788 and a DI-8B43 Amplifier
Data Acquisition > Temperature and Humidity > HMP60 For years, the HMP60 Temperature and Humidity sensor was used primarily with DI-710 series instruments. The DI-710 was (and still is) able to provide the necessary supply voltage (5 to 28VDC) and acquire both 0 to 2.5VDC outputs (-40 to 60°C and 0-100% RH). With the recent Read More
