1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The USB-1210 is a 16-bit high-speed USB 2.0-based DAQ module equipped with 4 analog input channels providing simultaneous
sampling at up to 2MS/s per channel. The USB-1210 delivers high
accuracy and excellent dynamic performance at maximum sampling rates and features flexible trigger function. In addition,
onboard 256MS FIFO ensures no data loss during acquisition
even with heavy loading on CPU or system.
The USB-1210 is USB bus powered and equipped with removable
screw-down terminals for easy device connectivity, and the
included multi-functional stand can be used for desktop, rail, or
wall mounting.
Suitable for high-speed data acquisition, laboratory and medical
research, the USB-1210 provides a reliable measurement solution
at an affordable price.

1.5.2 Module Stand
The multi-function USB-1210 stand is compatible with desk, rail, or
wall mounting. To fix the module in the stand, slide the module
body into the stand until a click is heard. To remove the module
from the stand, twist the bottom of the stand in a back-and forth
motion and separate from the module.
