WARNING: Connecting the USB-62401 Module 1. Turn on the computer. 2. Connect the USB-62401 module to one USB 2.0 port on the computer using the included USB cable. 3. The first time the USB-62401 module is connected, a New Hardware message appears. It will take around 6 seconds to load the firmware.
If the USB-62401 module cannot be detected, the power provided by the USB port may be insufficient. The USB-62401 module is exclusively powered by the USB port and requires 400 mA @ 5 V. Device ID A rotary control on the rear of the module (as shown) controls device ID setting and can be set from 1 to 8.
Hardware Configuration All remaining hardware configurations are software programmable, including sampling/update rate, input/output channel, input range, and others. Please see the UD-DASK Function Reference manual for details. Device Mounting 2.4.1 Rail Mounting The multi-function stand can be mounted on the DIN rail using the rail-mount kit as shown.
2.4.2 Wall Mounting The multi-function stand can be fixed to a wall using four flush head screws as shown. The four screw holes should be approximately 3.4 mm in diameter. 20.4 13.0 Figure 2-6: Wall Mount Holes Figure 2-7: Module with Wall Mount Apparatus Getting Started...

Operation Operation of the USB-62401 is described here to assist in configuration and programming of the module. Functions described include A/D conversion, programmable function I/O, and others Functional Layout The USB-62401 provides 4-channel 24-bit universal analog inputs and supports seven input modes, including voltage input, current input, thermocouple, RTD, full bridge, half bridge, and resistance measurement.
3.2.2 Ground-Referenced Signal Source Connected in some way to the existing ground system, to a common ground point with respect to the USB DAQ, when the computer is connected to the same power system. Non-isolated output of instruments and devices connected to the existing power systems are ground-referenced signal sources.
GND as well as the negative input of the Instrumentation Amplifier without any resistors. Connection of a floating signal source to the USB-62401 in differential input mode is as shown. Figure 3-3: Floating Source and Differential Input 3.3.2...
A bridge-based transducer is a passive device, requiring voltage exci- tation to convert the resistive change to an electrical signal. The USB-62401 provides a steady 2.5V excitation voltage for each analog input channel in full bridge and half bridge modes. For half-bridge trans- ducer, USB-62401 has built-in precision 20kΩ...

The resistance temperature detector (RTD) measures temperature by correlating the resistance of the RTD element with temperature. The USB-62401 can generate a steady 0.5 mA excitation current source to each channel in RTD input mode to measure cross-voltage on the RTD.
3.3.6 Wire Resistance Mode The USB-62401 can source precision 0.05 mA excitation current to the resistor to be measured and use a 2.5V input range to acquire cross-volt- age on the resistor. The formula of voltage to resistance conversion is: V(volt) 0.00005...

I/O) Polling mode benefits flexible timing and is suitable for retrieving the latest data without FIFO buffering latency. The USB-62401 continuously updates the latest acquired data onto a data port for specific channels. Data not retrieved in time is overwritten with new data without notice.
128 in continuous acquisition mode. Please refer to UD-DASK function reference for details of corresponding software API instruction. Programmable Function I/O The USB-62401 supports powerful programmable I/O function provided by an FPGA chip, configurable as TTL DI/DO, 32-bit timer/counters, and PWM output. These signals are single-ended and 5V TTL-compliant.
3.6.2 General Purpose Timer/Counter The USB-62401 is equipped with one general purpose timer/counter featuring: Count up/down controllable by hardware or software Programmable counter clock source (internal clock up to 80MHz, external clock up to 10 MHz) Programmable gate selection (hardware or software control) ...
3.6.3 General Purpose Timer/Counter Modes Ten programmable timer/counter modes are available. All initialize fol- lowing a software-start signal set by the software. The GPTC software reset initializes the status of the counter and reloads the initial value to the counter. The operation remains halted until software start is executed again.
Software start Gate Count value Figure 3-12: Mode 2-Single Period Measurement Mode 3: Single Pulse-Width Measurement The counter calculates the pulse-width of the signal on GPTC_GATE in terms of GPTC_CLK. Initial count can be loaded from the software application. After software start, the counter calculates the number of active edges on GPTC_CLK when GPTC_GATE is in its active state.
grammable parameters can be specified in terms of periods of the GPTC_CLK input by the software application. GPTC_GATE enables/disables calculation. When GPTC_GATE is inactive, the counter halts the current count value. Generation of a single pulse with a pulse delay of two and a pulse-width of four is shown. Software start Gate Count value...
Mode 6: Re-Triggered Single Pulse Generation This mode is similar to Mode 5 except that the counter generates a pulse following every active edge of GPTC_GATE. After software start, every active GPTC_GATE edge triggers a single pulse with pro- grammable delay and pulse width. Any GPTC_GATE triggers that occur when the prior pulse is not completed are ignored.
