Installing the E-1608
Unpacking
As with any electronic device, you should take care while handling to avoid damage from static
electricity. Before removing the device from its p ackaging, ground your s elf using a wrist strap or by simp ly
touching the computer chassis or other grounded object to eliminate any stored static charge.
Contact us immediately if any components are missing or damaged.
Installing the software
Refer to the MCC DAQ Quick Start for instructions on installing the software. Refer to the device product page
on the Measurement Computing website for information about the included and optional software supported by
the E-1608.
Install the software before you install your device
The drive r needed to run the E-1608 is installed with the software. Therefore, you need to install the software
package you plan to use before you install the hardware.
Connecting the external pow e r a dapter
Power to the E-1608 is provided with the 5 V external power adapter (PS-5V1AEPS). Connect the adapter cord
to the power connector on the E-1608 device, and plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet.
Power LED turns on when 5 V power is supplied to the E-1608. If the vol tage supply is less tha n 3.3 V or

Power LED.
Connecting the E-1608
The E-1608 requires a TCP /IP and UDP connection to a network or computer. Use the standard Ethernet cable
provided to connect the E-1608 to a 10Base-T- or 100Base-TX compatible Ethernet port, hub, or switch.
When connec ting the E-1608 for the first time, make sure that you connect to a local network with DHCP
enabled.
If you are unsure whether you have access to a local network or that DHCP is enabled on that network, you
should use a direct connection to a Windows PC.
It may take a minute or two to detect the device and assign the address. The green
lower left of the Ethernet connector turns on when there is a vali d Ethernet link, and blinks when network
activity is detected.
Once the E-1608 is physically connected to the local network or PC, you can run the software (InstaCal for
example) to establish a connection. If a connection cannot be established, make sure the device is using the
default co nfiguration by following the instructions i n the

E-1608 User's Guide Installing the E-1608
Configuring network se ttings
The following E-1608 network se t tings are software-selectable. Only one user at a time can connect to the
E-1608 to configure net wor k o p tio ns on the device. For typical local networks, the default settings are
recommended.
Address mode settings
The address mode setting determines whether the default IP parameters (IPv4 address, s ubnet mas k, and
gateway) are assigned to the E-1608 or an auto-addressing method is used to assign these parameters.
DHCP or link-local enabled (default)
If connected to a network with a DHCP server, the service automatically assigns IP addresses to the E-1608.
If the connected network does not have a DHCP server, the address stored in the default IP address is assigned
to the E-1608.
If the E-1608 is directly conne cte d to a Windows PC, a link-local address is assigned to the device. A link-local
address is valid only for communicati ons between the E-1608 and the PC to which it is connected
DHCP Only
Enables configuration by a DHCP server if one is available. The E-1608 is assigned an IP address shortly after
it is powered up and attached to the network.
Link Local Only
The E-1608 is assigned a link-local IP address by the Windows PC to which it is connected. A link-local
address is valid only for communicati ons between the E-1608 and the PC to which it is connected.
Static
The default
IPv4 Address is manually configured on the E-1608.
IP address settings
The default settings of the following IP address are assigned to the E-1608 when automatic addressing is
disabled or not available (DHCP or Link Loca l for example)
IPv4 address – The IP address that is stored on the device. The default IPv4 address is 192.168.0.101.
Subnet mask – The Subnet mask that is stored on the E-1608 . The subnet mask determines the number of
bits of the IP address that is used for the host portion of the address vs. the number of bits used for the
network portion. The default subnet mask is 255.255.255.000
Gateway – The gateway IP address that is stored on the E-1608. The gateway address of the device that
bridges subnets withi n a network. The default gateway is 192.168.0.1
Connection code
A number between 0 (default) and 999999999. Change this number from its default of 0 to prevent other users
from connec t ing to and configuring the device. The device remains visible to other users on the network, but
connection by another user is not allowed.
Setting up the E-1608 for communication across networks
In order to communicate with the E-1608 from a computer connected to a different net wor k – such as over the
Internet – you must change the network confi guration of the networ k router.
In the following procedure, the E-1608 is installed on the host LAN, and the computer is installed on the client
LAN.
Caution! This procedure should only be performed by a network administrator or computer professional.
Incorrect settings can significantly disrupt a network.

E-1608 User's Guide Installing the E-1608
1. Assuming you have successfully connected to a local network, determine the IP address of the device. If
the address was assigned by DHCP, it is recommended you change it to a static address by setting the
default address to the address assigned and s etting the d evice network configuration to static.
2. Configure the firewall/router to forward incoming traffic to the following ports to the IP address assigned
to the device:
o UDP:54211 (discovery)
o TCP:54211 (commands)
o TCP:54212 (scan data)
3. On the computer connected to the client LAN, manually enter the WAN address of the host router, and
specify the ports that were forwarded to connect to the remote E-1608.
If the ports listed above are not available on your router, you can use the following guidelines to select different
ports: The first port must be configured for both UDP and TCP. The second port must be adjacent to the first
and configured for TCP. For example, you could use 54221 (TCP and UDP) and 54222 (TCP).
Configuring network ala rm s
You can use software to configure any digital output bit and/or each analog output channel to generate specific
values to indicate when the device is connected and/or disconnected.
The settings can also be used to initialize an output to a specific value when the device connects or disconnects
from the net work.
Restoring factory default network settings
To reset the network configuration settings to the factory default values, complete the following steps (refer to
Device components on page 12 for the location of this button):
1. Remove power from the device.
2. Press and hold the Factory reset button while re-applying power.
3. Hold the button for at least four seconds until both the Power and Activity LEDs blink , indicating that the settings
have been restored to the factory defaults.
4. Release the button so the device continues start up with the default settings. If the button is released before the two
LEDs blink, the settin gs ar e not affected and the device s tarts up normally.
If InstaCal is open when default settings are restored, click the Refresh Boards button on the InstaCal toolbar
to reflect the changes.
Calibrating the hardware
The Measurement Computing Manufacturing Test department performs the initial factory calibration. Contact
Measurement Computing for details about how to return your device and have it calibrated to the factory
specifications. The recommended calibration interval is one year.
Field calibration is not supported.
Updating firmware
Your DAQ device contains firmware that can be updated in the field if required. Firmware is available for
download at
if an update to your device firmware is available.
www.mccdaq.com/firmware.aspx. MCC recommends that you check this page periodically to see

Functional Det ails
Analog input modes
The E-1608 can acquire analog input data in two basic modes – software paced and hardware paced.
Software paced
You can acquire one analog sample at a time in software-paced mode. You initiate the A/D conversion with a
software command. The analog value is converted to digital data and returned to the computer. Repeat this
procedure until you have the total number of samples that you want.
The sample rate in software paced mode is system-dependent and can range from 1000 S/s to 5000 S/s on local
networks (lower over the Internet or wireless networks).
Hardware paced
You can acquire data from up to eight channels in hardware-paced mode. The analog data is continuously
acquired, converted to digital values, a nd written into the FIFO buffer on the device until you s t op the scan. The
FIFO buffer is serviced in blocks as the data is transferred from the FIFO buffer to the computer memory
buffer. You start a continuous scan with either a software command or with an external hardware trigger event.
The maximum sample rate in hardware paced-mode from one to eight channels is 250 kS/s aggregate on local
hardwired networks (may b e lower over the Internet or local wireless networks).
External components
The E-1608 has the following ext ernal components:
Screw terminals

Floating voltage source
When connec ting DIFF voltag e inputs to a floating voltage source, make sure the DIFF input channel has a DC
return path to ground. To create this path, connect a resistor from each low channel input to an AGND pin. A
value of approximately 100 kΩ can be used for most applications.
Leave unused input channels either floa ting or tied to an AGND terminal. Source impedances should be kept as
small as possible to avoid settling time and accuracy errors.

Channel-Gain queue
The channel-gain queue feature allows you to configure a list of channels, modes, and gains for each scan. The
settings are stored in a channel-gain queue list that is written to local memor y on the d e vice.
The channel-gain queue list contains one or more channel numbers, modes, and range setti ngs. You can
configure up to 8 elements. The channels can be listed in any order, and can include duplicate channels for
sampling at different ranges.
An example of a 4-element list is shown in the table below.

Carefully match the gain to the expected voltage range on the associated channel or an over range condition
may occur. Although this condition does not damage the device, it does produce a useless full-scale reading,
and can introduce a long recovery time due to saturation of the input channel.

Analog output
Two 16-bit analog outputs are available at AOUT0 and AOUT1.
Each analo g output channel has an o utput range of ±10 V. Throughput is system-dependent.
The D/A is software-paced. Each 16-bit analog output (
AOUT0 and AOUT1) can be updated simultaneously at
rates from 1000 S/s to 5000 S/s. This is the typical throughput when the device and host are both hard-wired to
the same local network. Typical throughput is not guaranteed if a wireless connection is involved or data is sent
over the Internet.
External clock I/O
The E-1608 provides one external cl ock input (AICKI) and one clock output (AICKO) for analog i nputs.
You can connect an external clock signal to
When using the internal clock,
AICKO outputs the ADC scan clock.
AICKI.
Digital I/O
You can connect up to eight digital I/O lines to DIO0 through DIO7. Each digital channel is individually
configurable for input or output. The digital I/O terminals can detect the state of any TTL-level input and offer .
advanced BiCMOS output.
Refer to the schematic shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Schematic showing switch detection by digital channel DIO0
If you set the switch to the +5 V input, DIO0 reads TRUE (1). If you move the switch to GND, DIO0 reads
FALSE (0).
Pull-up/down configuration
Unconnected inputs are pulled high by default to 5 V through 47 kΩ resistors via jumper
W3 on the circuit
board (see Figure 6).
