"Reporting Mode" in DI-2108 stand alone analog channel configuration doesn't stick
I noticed that when setting a Reporting Mode to anything other than Average/CIC on an analog channel configuration in stand alone mode, I can save the configuration to the DI-2108 without error, but when I go back into the stand alone configuration and
DI-2108 digital inputs confusion
I am having some trouble understanding how digital inputs on the DI-2108 using WinDAQ are supposed to work. I only see an option to enable "channel 9" in WinDAQ to enable the digital channels for input, why isn't there a separate enable setting for each
DI-2108 analog inputs measuring 18V
The DI-2108 has differential analog inputs that are spec'ed as being able to measure +/- 10V, does this mean that they have an overall measurement range of 20V between the - and + terminals? If so, can I connect an 18V DC signal to an input by connecting
DI-2108 writing files with UTC timestamps in stand alone mode
I use a DI-2108 in stand alone mode sometimes and I usually set the clock from the PC clock periodically. I noticed that then timestamps on the files written to the USB drive are in UTC time, but then when I use WinDaq to update the file it will change
Procedure for removing USB thumb drive from DI-2108
I sometimes use my DI-2108 in stand alone mode, recoding to a USB thumb drive. Is there a procedure that I need to follow prior to removing the thumb drive? What I have been doing when I am done recording is to press the button on the DI-2108, wait for
WinDaq no license information
I bought an unlocked, stand-alone mode DI-2108 from Amazon. I installed the WinDaq software from the included thumb drive. I notice that the software doesn't show who the software is licensed to. Is this something that I should have properly setup for
Dataq.Simple device discovery using C#
I have a DI-710 and a DI-155. I can discover the -155 using the Dataq.Simple namespace but not the -710. The -710 shows up in Device Manager and I can pull it up using the Dataq Hardware Manager. Does the Dataq.Simple namespace not support the -710? if
Connecting an active sensor
Who would think a two wire system could be so confusing? I have setup the 2108 system we have to connect to passive sensors so therefore i supply the 24V to power the device. Now i have a flowmeter that is an active sensor, it supplies its own power to
DI-2008 Digital IO programming

DI-1120 Programming with Visual Basic
Hi, I am trying to create a program that uses the DI-1120 to read and save data to a .csv file and send digital output to a microcontroller. It seems like the best way to achieve this is using Visual Basic, as there is a VB example specific to the Di-1120
DI-710 with 4-20mA sensors
Just picked one of these up to make a 16 channel system similar to our 8 channel units using the DI-2018. However, I cant see how you can fit (or do you need?) the shunt resistor between pins? I have no CD drive on the laptop so need to source an external
DI-2108 D1 Remote Storage
I'm new to Dataq products. Trying to setup the stand alone mode for my DI-2108. I use an output from the PLC to turn on/off a relay, and wire the relay output to D1 terminals. Also, I already configured the stand alone as start recording when D1 is low.

I have a DI-149/HS kit, S/N is 54EC8E86, but the displayed S/N in HELP, About is 54ECFFFF03. I tried to unlock the device with the corresponding PID, but displayed "value is illegal" . So I can't record at more than 240 S/s. Why this happened? How should
DI4718B-E with DI-8B38-05
I can only get 5V and i need to get to 10V. Where can i change the volt output/input I've tried to configure in stand alone and channel settings. In channel setting only has one option -5V/+5V. The load cell is 10V-20V.
Device for analog measurement of 24vdc
