* The OMB-DAQ-54 does not have frequency, digital I/O or expansion capabilty.
The OMB-DAQ-54, OMB-DAQ-55 and OMB-DAQ-56
Personal Daqs are full-featured
data acquisition products that utilize
the Universal Serial Bus (USB),
which is built into almost every
new PC. Designed for high
accuracy and resolution, the 22-bit
OMB-DAQ-54/55/56 data acquisition
systems directly measure multiple
channels of voltage, thermocouple,
pulse, frequency, and digital I/O (the OMB-DAQ-54 does not have digital, frequency I/O). A
single cable to the PC provides
high-speed communication and
power to the OMB-DAQ-54/55/56. No
additional batteries or power
supplies are required, except when
using bus-powered hubs.
The OMB-DAQ-54/55/56 modules are
the first products in a new family of
low-cost, USB-based products from
OMEGA. Because of the strict
power limitations of the USB, the
modules incorporate special powermanagement
circuitry to ensure
adherence to USB specifications.
The OMB-DAQ-54/55/56 avoid many
of the limitations of PC-Card
(PCMCIA) data acquisition devices
and offer advantages over many
PC plug-in data acquisition boards
as well.
The OMB-DAQ-54 data
acquisition system offers 10 single-ended
or 5 differential analog (up
to ±20 V full scale) or thermocouple input channels with 16 programmable
ranges and 500 V optical isolation.
The OMB-DAQ-55 offers 10 single-ended
or 5 differential analog (up
to ±20 V full scale) or thermocouple
input channels,16 programmable
ranges, 500 V optical isolation, 8
digital I/O lines, and 2 frequency/
pulse/ duty-cycle channels.
The OMB-DAQ-56 offers twice the
I/O capacity as the OMB-DAQ-55 in
the same size package.
To simplify attachment of signals and
transducers, the OMB-DAQ-54/55/56
modules feature convenient,
removable screw-terminal input
connections.

real-time displays using built-in
display options, including digital, dial
meter, bar graph, and strip chart displays.
No programming is required — simply
point, click, and drag desired display
options to create a visual display screen.
The OMB-DAQ-54/55/56 are also
shipped with PostView, a postacquisition
application that permits
you to display acquired data
previously saved to a file. Drivers
for Visual Basic, Delphi and C++
for Windows XP/VISTA, are also
included. In addition, drivers are
