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 single-ended 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 TracerDAQ®, a full-featured, out-of-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 of VIs and example programs compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit LabVIEW 2010 or later) and InstaCalTM installation, calibration and test utility-powerful solutions for programmers and nonprogrammers alike. These modules operate under Microsoft Windows® VISTA/7/8/10 (32-bit and 64-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. A comparison of some of the features included in TracerDAQ vs TracerDAQ PRO is shown on the PDF.
