Includes 4 Analog Outputs
The OMB-DAQ-2416 and the
OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO are
highly accurate, multi-function
measurement and control modules
for the USB bus. These modules
are 24-bit analog input devices for
voltage or temperature, with eight
digital I/O lines and two counters.
In addition to the features listed,
the OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO also
includes four analog output
channels with 16-bit resolution,
±10V output range, and an
aggregate 1000 Hz update rate.
System Expansion
With the addition of an optional
OMB-AI-EXP32 analog input
expansion module, the number
of analog input channels on
the OMB-DAQ-2416 or
OMB-DAQ-2416-4AO can be
doubled—increasing from
16 differential/32 single-ended
inputs, to 32 differential/64 singleended inputs. The expansion
module also provides an additional
16 channels of DIO, bringing
the total DIO count of the mated
pair to 24.
All features of the OMB-DAQ-2416
series module are included when
the OMB-AI-EXP32 is attached,
including the ability to accommodate
thermocouples on any input
channel, built-in cold junction
compensation, and open
thermocouple detection. The
OMB-AI-EXP32 can be plugged
directly into a OMB-DAQ-2416
series module. The packaging for
the OMB-DAQ-2416 series and
the OMB-AI-EXP32 ensures ease
of use in a variety of applications.
Detachable screw terminals
facilitate attaching and removing
without re-wiring. The modules can
easily be DIN-rail mounted for rack
applications.
Software
The OMB-DAQ-2416 series
modules ship with an impressive
array of software, including the
new TracerDAQ, a full-featured,
out-of-the-box data logging,
viewing, and analysis application;
Universal Library™; and InstaCal™
installation, calibration, and
test utility—powerful software
solutions for programmers and
nonprogrammers alike. The
OMB-DAQ-2416 series modules
operate under Microsoft Windows
2000/XP/Vista (32-bit) operating
systems.

The OMB-DAQ-2416 Series data
acquisition modules are supplied
with TracerDAQ software which is a
collection of four virtual instrument
applications used to graphically
display and store input data and
generate output signals:
• Strip Chart—Log and
graph values acquire from
analog inputs, digital inputs,
temperature inputs and
counter inputs
• Oscilloscope—Display values
acquired from analog inputs
• Function Generator—Generate
waveforms for analog outputs
• Rate Generator—Generate
waveforms for counter outputs
TracerDAQ PRO is an enhanced
version of TracerDAQ.
