Preface About this User's Guide What you will learn from this user's guide This user's guide describes the Measurement Computing WebDAQ 504 data acquisition device and the web interface, and lists device specifications. Conventions in this user's guide For more information Text presented in a box signifies additional information related to the subject matter.
WebDAQ Series devices are designed with an integrated operating system and web interface. You communicate with the device over a network connection using the web interface opened in a web browser. Mobile support – access the WebDAQ 504 from any device with a web browser, such as a phone or tablet ...
Introducing the WebDAQ 504 Functional block diagram Device functions are illustrated in the block diagram shown here. Figure 1. WebDAQ 504 functional block diagram Unpacking As with any electronic device, you should take care while handling to avoid damage from static electricity.
IP address from a DHCP server. If this fails, a link-local address is used. Use of a static address requires configuration via the web interface. The IP address identifies the WebDAQ 504 on the network, and is used to access the web interface.
WebDAQ 504 User's Guide Setting up the WebDAQ 504 Detecting the device on the network WebDAQ uses the "zeroconf" zero-configuration protocol to announce its presence on a local area network. Zeroconf uses a device name which can be accessed from other computers on the network.
WebDAQ 504 User's Guide Setting up the WebDAQ 504 Configuring the WebDAQ for wireless communication Once communication is established on a wireless network, you can connect a WiFi adapter to the USB port and use the web interface to configure the WebDAQ for communication over a wireless network. With the WebDAQ connected through the wired connection, perform the following procedure.
WebDAQ 504 User's Guide Setting up the WebDAQ 504 To change the security level or password, open the web interface and go to the Device window, Security tab. Use the device Reset button to restore security settings to factory default values.
Chapter 3 Functional Details Front panel components Front panel components are shown in Figure 3. Figure 3. Front panel Screw terminal BNC connectors Screw terminal Connect up to four digital I/O lines ( ) to the detachable screw terminal. Refer to Figure 4 for signal DIO0 DI03 locations.
If you make a ground-referenced connection between the signal source and the WebDAQ 504, make sure the voltage on the AI– shell is in the common-mode range to ensure proper operation. The AI- shell is protected against accidental contact with overvoltages within the overvoltage protection range.
WebDAQ 504 User's Guide Functional Details External power connector Connect the external AC adapter that shipped with the device to the connector labeled on the rear EXT PWR panel. The power supply provides 9 VDC, 1.67 A power to the WebDAQ.
WebDAQ 504 User's Guide Functional Details Label State Description 3: ERROR Blinking yellow Error condition is detected. This LED blinks even when the software is configured to ignore the error Error state is cleared when the next schedule starts. No error detected...
The WebDAQ 504 uses common-mode bias current to bias the current-limiting diodes when voltage inputs are connected. When the WebDAQ 504 is using grounded signal sources, the current causes an error that is dependent on the AI– lead impedance, and is approximately 50 ppm of range and 15 ppm of reading per Ω of AI–...
Anti-aliasing filters The WebDAQ 504 uses a combination of analog and digital filtering to provide an accurate representation of in- band signals while rejecting out-of-band signals. The filters discriminate between signals based on the frequency range, or bandwidth, of the signal.
Alias-free bandwidth Any signal that appears in the alias-free bandwidth of the WebDAQ 504 is not an aliased artifact of signals at a higher frequency. The alias-free bandwidth is defined by the ability of the filter to reject frequencies above the stopband frequency, and it is equal to the data rate minus the stopband frequency.
FAQ for instructions. Updating WebDAQ Firmware Calibrating the hardware The Measurement Computing Manufacturing Test department performs the initial factory calibration. Return the device to Measurement Computing Corporation when calibration is required. The recommended calibration interval is one year.
