Screw terminal pin out – differential

Figure 3. 16-channel differential mode pin out
Differential connection guidelines
When connecting differential voltage inputs to a "floating" voltage source, make sure there is a DC return
path from each voltage input to ground. You make this path by connecting a resistor from each input to a GND pin (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). A value of approximately 100 kΩ can be used for most applications.
Leave any unused input channels either floating or tied to GND (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). Source impedances should be kept as small as possible to avoid settling time and accuracy errors.
When configuring thermocouple sensors, keep any stray capacitance as small as possible relative to GND
(pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84) to avoid settling time and accuracy errors. For thermocouple channels, do not provide a return path to ground. This is done internally.

LEDs

When the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO is connected to a computer, in its normal idle state both LEDs are lit solid green.
Power LED
The Power LED is the top LED on the right side of the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO housing. The Power LED blinks when you plug the power supply into the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO, and continues to blink
while the device initializes the hardware. If it continues blinking for more than ½ second, then there is a problem with the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO and you should cycle the power.
If an application issues a "blink LED" command, then the power LED blinks a few times.
Activity LED
The (USB) Activity LED is the bottom LED on the right side of the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO housing. It blinks rapidly when both the USB cable and external power cables are plugged in. It continues blinking rapidly while the device is connecting to the computer, and then turns solid.
Whenever the device receives a USB command, the Activity LED blinks off and then returns to solid green. When an analog in or analog out scan is running, the Activity LED blinks continuously.

USB connector

The USB connector provides communication.

External power connector

Connect the OMB-DAQ-2416-ADAP power supply to this connector. The power supply provides 5 VDC, 10W regulated power.

Screw terminal wiring

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO has six groups of screw terminalsthree on each side of the housing. Each group has 16 connections. Pin numbers are identified in Figure 3 on page 11 and Figure 4 on page 12.

Analog/TC input terminals

You can connect up to 32 single-ended analog input connections or up to 16 differential analog/TC input connections to these screw terminal pins.
You can select a unique input range or signal type for each channel. For example, one channel could be used for volts and another for temperature.
When connecting differential voltage inputs to a "floating" voltage source, make sure there is a DC return path from each voltage input to ground. You make this path by connecting a resistor from each input to a GND pin (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). A value of approximately 100 kΩ can be used for most applications. This does not apply to channels configured for thermocouple input, as they have their own internal reference.
Leave unused input channels either floating or tied to GND (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). Source impedances should be kept as small as possible to avoid settling time and accuracy errors.

Analog input mode

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO makes high-resolution voltage measurements in either a single-ended or fully differential mode. You can configure the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO for the following voltage input ranges.
±20 V ±10 V ±5 V ±2.5 V ±1.25 V ±0.625 V ±0.3125 V ±0.15625 V ±0.078125 V
Each analog input channel has the following measurement parameters:
signal type of volts or thermocouple type J, K, T, E, R, S, B, or N full scale voltage from -20 to + 20 VDC

Thermocouple inputs

You can make up to 16 high-resolution differential thermocouple measurements with the OMB-DAQ-2416­4AO. Built-in cold-junction sensors are provided for each of the screw-terminal blocks, and any supported TC type can be attached to any of the 16 thermocouple channels.
Do not connect thermocouples as single-endeddoing so can cause false readings. You do not need to use ground-referencing resistors because the analog front-end circuit level-shifts the
thermocouple's output into the common-mode input range of the A/D. When configuring thermocouple sensors, keep any stray capacitance as small as possible relative to GND
(pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84) to avoid settling time and accuracy errors.

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO also provides an open thermocouple detection (OTD) feature for each of the analog input channels configured for thermocouple measurement. This feature is automatically enabled as part of the overall acquisition process, and detects if an open-circuit condition exists at the thermocouple sensor.
The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO provides electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for each of the thermocouple inputs. However, before handling thermocouple sensors, follow standard ESD practices and discharge any accumulated ESD charge.
The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO includes an ESD protection device at each of the analog input terminal block pins. If an ESD or transient voltage is coupled into the device, the input protection device(s) clamps the voltage to protect the thermocouple input circuitry from possible damage.
Once the thermocouple sensor is connected to the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO, the configuration options have been selected, and the recommended 45 minute warm up has elapsed, the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO is ready to make high-resolution differential voltage measurements.
Cold junction compensation (CJC) is needed to compensate for the additional thermal EMF's generated by connecting the thermocouple leads to the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO terminal blocks.
CJC is performed using a high-resolution temperature sensor connected close to the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO's terminal blocks. The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO includes four separate CJC sensorstwo on each side of the PCB. Software corrects for the additional thermocouples created at the terminal.
Once the A/D and CJC data is collected, the application software uses this data to linearize to an accurate temperature reading. The thermocouple linearization uses the latest NIST linearization coefficients for each of the eight thermocouple types supported by the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO.
Figure 11 below shows a typical thermocouple connection.

Noise filtering, data rate, and throughput rate

Although the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO's A/D converter has a maximum data rate of 3,750 samples per second, the actual throughput rate you observe for voltage and temperature data is determined by these formulas.
Maximum single-channel throughput:

Maximum multiple-channel throughput:
where n is the number of channels Refer to the tables in the Throughput rate section of the Specifications chapter for details. This drop-off in throughput rate is due to the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO's noise filtering feature. You can control
the amount of the noise filtering by adjusting the data rate setting. By reducing the data rate, the averaging of samples increases, and noise drops correspondingly.
Figure 12 below illustrates this inverse relationship. This graph applies to the A/D converter onlydo not expect this level of performance from the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO itself.
Figure 12. OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO A/D converter data rate vs. noise graph
If low noise is your main concern, you can operate the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO at very low data rates starting from 2.5 S/s. At low rates, much of the noise is averaged out of the data, and issues such as reference noise become less important.
At higher data rates, higher-frequency noise sources are not averaged out and begin to be troublesome. These noise sources include the noise inherent in the A/D converter itself, which is not reducible.
Since thermocouples can pick up noise in your environment, select a data rate based on the primary noise frequency. For example, to reduce the effect of 60 Hz noise, select a data rate of 60 (or a sub-multiple of 60, such as 10 or 20).

Multiple-channel throughput rates

When setting different sample rates for different channels, be aware that the all channels will be sampled within the same sample window based on the channel with the lowest sample rate.
For example, if you set a 10 Hz data rate for channel 0, and a 50 Hz data rate for channel 1, basically, both channels pass the same number of samples per second to the host computer. However, more averaging is performed on channel 0's samples; therefore, channel 0 is sampled at a higher resolution.
The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO's A/D converter performs averaging, and the number of averages equals 30,000/data rate.
In this example, channel 0 is sampled 3000 times over 100 ms, and all samples are averaged into one sample. Then, channel 1 is sampled 600 times over 20 ms, and samples are likewise averaged into one sample.
The final samples are available to you at a maximum rate of about 8 Hz (8.245 Hz).

Input isolation

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO is an isolated data acquisition device. The analog I/O, digital I/O, counters, and all the digital control/timing are referenced to an isolated ground as shown in the figure below. This ground is physically and electrically separate from the ground use by the circuit connected to the system bus interface.
Isolation provides a barrier between the host PC and potentially hazardous voltages by physically and electrically separating two parts of the measurement device.
The "non-isolated" ground is common to the chassis ground of the PC, while the "isolated" ground is not. All analog measurements are made relative to the isolated ground. See Figure 14 for details.
Figure 14. OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO input isolation diagram
When making measurements in industrial environments, DAQ devices can encounter hazardous voltages, transients, large common mode voltages and fluctuating ground potentials. Any one of these issues can seriously degrade the measurement accuracy of the device and possibly damage the measurement instrument. To overcome these issues, some DAQ devices provide physical and electrical isolation. Some of the benefits of isolation include:
Safety: A DAQ device employing physical and electrical isolation helps to keep high voltages and
transients from damaging the system-side host PC. Ground loops: Improper grounding of the signal source that the DAQ device is measuring is one of the
most common sources of noise and measurement inaccuracies. Isolation improves the measurement
accuracy by physically preventing ground loops. Ground loopsa common source of noise and errorare
the results of a measurement system having multiple grounds at different potentials. Common mode rejection: With isolation, a DAQ device can measure small signals in the presence of
large common mode voltages. Isolation increases the measurement system's ability to reject common mode
voltages. The common mode voltage is the signal that is common to both the positive and negative inputs
of the measurement device, but is not part of the signal to measure.

Analog output terminals (VDAC0 through VDAC3)

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO has four 16-bit analog output channels with a ±10 V output range. Analog outputs can be updated at a maximum rate of 1000 samples per second (S/s).

Digital I/O

Up to eight digital I/O lines are available in each OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO. Digital input voltage ranges of 0 to +15V are permitted, with thresholds of 0.6 V (low) and 2.6 V (high). Each
DIO channel is an open-drain, which, when used as an output, is capable of sinking up to 150 mA for direct drive applications. The maximum sink current is 150 mA per 8-channel bank, or if all eight channels are used, 18 mA (maximum) per channel.
Figure 15 represents a typical DIO connection for one channel. The other seven channels are connected in the same manner.
Figure 15. Digital output connection example

Internal pull-up/pull-down capability

Each of the eight DIO bits on the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO has a 47 pull-up/pull-down resistor. The pull­up/pull-down voltage is common to all of the internal 47 kΩ resistors.
All pins are pulled up to +5V by default. To configure these bits for the 0V pull-down option, open the OMB­DAQ-2416-4AO case to access the three-pin jumper labeled JP1.
To open the case and set the JP1 jumper, do the following.
1. Turn over the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO and rest it on its top on a flat, stable surface.
2. Remove the five screws shown in Figure 16 from the bottom of the module.
3. Holding both the top and bottom sections of the module, turn it back over, rest it on the surface, and
carefully remove the top portion of the case.
21
Figure 16. Location of screws connecting bottom and top sections of case
Figure 17. Location of JP1
4. To pull the digital pins down to ground, place the shorting block across pins 2 and 3 (refer to the jumper
orientation shown in Figure 17).
To pull the digital pins up to +5V, place the shorting block across pins 1 and 2.

External pull-up/pull-down capability

You can also place an external pull-up resistor on any of the DIO bits, which enables you to pull the DIO bit up to a voltage that exceeds the internal +5 V pull-up voltage.
When using external pull-up resistors, be aware of the following:
You should either remove the JP1 jumper, or store it by attaching it to one of the three pins. When using external pull-up resistors, the internal resistors cause slight impedance shifts to digital lines in
the "on" state as the number of lines in the "off" state changes.

Counter input terminals (CTR0, CTR1)

Two 32-bit event counters are built into the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO. Each counter accepts frequency inputs up to 1 MHz.
Refer to the "Screw terminal pin out" diagrams starting on page 11 for the location of these pins. The internal counter increments when the TTL levels transition from low to high. The counter can count frequencies of up to 1 MHz.

Calibrating the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO

The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO is initially calibrated using an NIST-traceable calibration method. This method stores a correction factor for each AIN and AOUT range in non-volatile memory on the device at the time of calibration.
Allow a 45 minute warm-up period before calibrating the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO.

Calibration methods

Factory calibration

You can return the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO once a year to Omega Engineering for a new factory calibration and calibration certificate.

Self calibration

Use InstaCal to calibrate the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO whenever the ambient temperature changes by more than ±10 °C from the last self-calibration
You can perform this procedure with thermocouple and voltage inputs connected to the input terminal blocks. To calibrate the AOUT circuits, disconnect the analog outputs at the terminal block pins to ensure optimum
calibration results.

2.5 S/s) further improves the common mode rejection of this frequency.

Channel configurations

When any item is changed, the firmware stores channel configurations in the EEPROM of the isolated microcontroller. An external application issues commands over the USB to make changes, and the configuration is made non-volatile through the use of the EEPROM.
When connecting differential voltage inputs to a floating voltage source, provide a DC return path from each voltage input to ground. To do this, connect a resistor from each input to a GND pin (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). A value of approximately 100 kΩ can be used for most applications.
Leave unused input channels either floating or tied to GND (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84). Source impedances should be kept as small as possible to avoid settling time and accuracy errors. For each voltage/thermocouple channel configured as differential, you essentially lose one single-ended
channel. You can add channels by connecting to an OMB-AI-EXP32.

Connect thermocouples to the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO such that they are floating with respect to GND (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84, 93, and 94).
When configuring thermocouple sensors, keep any stray capacitance relative to GND (pins 18, 36, 39, 42, 44, 46, 66, 81, 84) as small as possible to avoid settling time and accuracy errors.
The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO GND and DGND pins are isolated from earth ground. You can connect thermocouple sensors to voltages referenced to earth ground as long as isolation between the GND/DGND pins and earth ground is maintained.

Analog voltage output

Unused VDACx output channels should be left disconnected. The OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO output voltage level defaults to 0 V whenever the host PC is reset, shut down or
suspended, or if a reset command is issued to the device. The duration of the output transient depends highly on the enumeration process of the host PC. Typically, the
output of the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO is stable after two seconds.

Note 5: The external pull-up is connected to the digital output bit through an external pull-up resistor. Adding
an external pull-up resistor connects it in parallel with the internal 47 kΩ pull-up resistor of that particular digital input/output bit. Careful consideration should be made when considering the external pull-up resistor value and the resultant pull-up voltage produced at the load.
Note 6: Does not include the additional leakage current contribution that may occur when using an external
pull-up resistor.
