8-Channel High Speed Voltage Input USB Data Acquisition Modules
OM-USB-1208HS,
OM-USB-1208HS-2AO,
OM-USB-1208HS-4AO
4 Differential/8 Single-Ended
Analog Voltage Inputs
13-Bit Resolution
Up to 4 Analog Outputs
16 Digital I/O
Two 32-Bit Counters
No External Power
Supply Required
The OM-USB-1208HS,
OM-USB-1208HS-2AO
and OM-USB-1208HS-4AO are
USB 2.0 full-speed voltage input
data acquisition modules (fully
compatible with both USB 1.1
and USB 2.0 ports). These are
stand-alone plug-and-play modules
which draw power from the USB
cable– no external power supply
is required. All configurable options
(including individual channel
ranges) are software
programmable, and the modules
are fully software calibrated.
All three OM-USB-1208HS modules
provide 13-bit resolution, and 4
differential or 8 single-ended analog
inputs. These modules support
software programmable ranges from
±5 to ±20V in a differential
configuration, and ±2.5 to ±10V,
and 0 to 10V in a single-ended
configuration. In software-paced
mode, these modules can sample at
a maximum of 4 kS/s. In hardwarepaced mode, they can sample at a
maximum of 1 MS/s.
The OM-USB-1208HS-2AO
provides two 12-bit analog outputs,
and the OM-USB-1208HS-4AO
provides four 12-bit analog outputs.

smaller than actual size.
Both modules offer an output range
of ±10V. Analog outputs update at a
maximum rate of 5 kS/s in softwarepaced mode; in hardware-paced
mode, each analog output updates
at a maximum rate of 1 MS/s.
On these modules, 16 digital I/O can
be programmed on each individual
bit as either inputs or outputs. Each
module supports two 32-bit TTL-level
counters that accept frequency inputs
of up to 20 MHz.
The packaging for the
OM-USB-1208HS,
OM-USB-1208HS-2AO
and OM-USB-1208HS-4AO
ensures ease of use in a variety
of applications. The modules
can easily be DIN-rail mounted
for rack applications.
The OM-USB-1208HS,
OM-USB-1208HS-2AO
and OM-USB-1208HS-4AO modules
ship with an impressive array of
software, including the new
TracerDAQ
the-box data logging, viewing, and
analysis application. Driver support
and detailed example programs are
included for Universal Library
programming libraries for Microsoft
Visual Studio®programming
languages, and other languages,
including DASYLab®, and ULx for NI
LabVIEW®(comprehensive library
®
, a full-featured, out-of-
®
of VIs and example programs
compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit
LabVIEW v8.5 through 2011) and
InstaCal
and test utility-powerful solutions for
programmers and nonprogrammers
alike. These modules operate under
Microsoft Windows®XP/VISTA/7
(32-bit and 64-bit) operating
systems.
The OM-USB-1208HS,
OM-USB-1208HS-2AO
and OM-USB-1208HS-4AO 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:
