The USB-1408FS is a low-cost 14-bit analogue input USB device that fills the gap between the popular 12-bit and 16-bit models in the Measurement Computing USB range.
Adept Scientific announces the release of a new, low-cost USB data acquisition device.
The USB-1408FS rounds out the product line, and provides the cost-sensitive customer with an attractive choice.
"So many of our customers have been asking us for a product to fill the gap between our USB-1208FS and our USB-1608FS," remarked Bill Kennedy, MCC vice president of sales and marketing, "that we had to build one".
"The USB-1408FS features 14 bits of resolution, factory calibration and ten times the accuracy of the USB-1208FS.
While we continue to exceed our customers' price expectations, the engineers of our USB-1408FS have also provided additional features that will enhance our customers' overall measurement experience." The USB-1408FS provides eight single-ended or four differential analogue inputs, 14-bit resolution in differential mode, 13-bit resolution in single-ended mode, eight software selectable input ranges, with sample rates up to 48 kilosamples per second.
In addition to the analogue inputs, the unit provides two channels of 12-bit analogue output, a 32-bit counter and 16 bits of digital I/O.
It is fully compatible with USB 1.1 and USB 2.0, and is supported by the Windows 2000 and XP operating systems.
At 8.3cm wide by 7.9cm long by 2.5cm high, the USB-1408FS is just large enough to make connecting field wiring easy, yet small enough to fit on even the most crowded bench.
Magnetic and Velcro mounting options along with a 0.6cm attachment hole make mounting easy, even in unconventional installations.
The attachment hole can also be used with a cable lock or padlock in applications where unit security is required.
The USB-1408FS is bundled with a USB cable and the following software:.
InstaCal, an all-in-one installation, setup, calibration, and test application.
InstaCal makes setting up and retrieving data as simple as a few mouse clicks.
TracerDAQ, Measurement Computing's powerful stripchart recorder, oscilloscope and data logging application.
Universal Library and UL for Labview, powerful language interfaces that allow users to write programs in all of the popular programming languages using easy-to-understand, high-level command syntax.
