WBK10A

The WBK10A Analog Expansion Module can be used to provide WaveBook with 8 additional differential­analog-inputs. The WBK10A is equipped with a programmable gain instrumentation amplifier (PGA) and,
like the WaveBook, has a built-in expansion bus.

Up to eight WBK10A modules can be cascaded together for a system capacity of 72 differential channels.
Each module is capable of supporting a WBK11A, WBK12A, or WBK13A option card.

Important Notice! WaveBook/516E Users

WBK option cards for WaveBook/516E are installed at the factory per customer order.
Users are not to remove or install cards for these products as the cards are not “plug-and­play” for these devices and erroneous signal values could result. If you desire to remove
or add a card to WaveBook/516E contact the factory or your service representative.

Important Notice! WaveBook/516, /516A, /512A, and WBK10A Users

/512A, and WBK10A are installed at the factory per customer order. Users are not to

desire to remove or add a card to these products, contact the factory or your service
representative.
