This chapter will provide informa- tion on the features of the DAS module, a quick start guide for installation, and some brief infor- mation on software and accesso- ries for the USB-4716 Module. Section include: Features Software Overview...
The Advantech Navigator is a utility that allows you to set up, configure and test your device, and later stores your settings in a proprietary database. To set up the I/O device for your card, you should first run the Advantech Navi- gator program (by accessing Start/Programs/Advantech Automation/DAQNavi/ Advantech Navigator).
Unpacking After receiving your USB-4716 package, please inspect its contents first. The pack- age should contain the following items: USB-4716 Module Startup Manual The USB-4716 Module harbors certain electronic components vulnerable to electro- static discharge (ESD). ESD could easily damage the integrated circuits and certain components if preventive measures are not carefully paid attention to.
Driver Installation We recommend you install the software driver before you install the USB-4716 mod- ule into your system, since this will guarantee a smooth installation process. The driver package could be found on Advantech Support Portal (https://www.advan- tech.com/support). Search for the product model name on the support portal, then the corresponding driver/SDK package can be found.
Make sure you have installed the software driver before you install the module (please refer to Section 2.2 Driver Installation) After the driver installation is completed, you can now go on to install the USB-4716 module in any USB port that supports USB 2.0/3.0 standard, on your computer.
Chapter Signal Connections This chapter provides useful information on how to connect input and output signals to the USB-4716 via the I/O connectors. Sections include: Overview I/O Connectors Analog Input Connections Analog Output Connections Trigger Source Connections...
A good signal connection can avoid unnecessary and costly damage to your PC and other hard- ware devices. I/O Connectors USB-4716 is equipped with plug-in screw-terminal connectors that facilitate connec- tion to the module without terminal boards or cables. 3.2.1 Pin Assignment Figure 3.1 on next page shows the pin assignments for the five 10-pin I/O connectors...

Analog Input Connections USB-4716 supports 16 single-ended/8 differential (or combination) analog inputs. Each individual input channel is software-selected. 3.3.1 Single-ended Channel Connections The single-ended input configuration has only one signal wire for each channel, and the measured voltage (Vm) is the voltage of the wire as referenced against the com- mon ground.
USB-4716. With this connection, the PGIA rejects a common-mode voltage Vcm between the signal source and USB-4716 ground, shown as Vcm in Figure 3.3. Note! In differential input mode, the input channel n should be used with chan- nel n+1.
3.5.1 Internal Pacer Trigger Connection USB-4716 provides two 16-bit counters connected to a 10 MHz clock. Counter 0 is a counter that counts events from an input channel. Counter 1 is a 16-bit timer for pacer triggering. A low-to-high edge from the Counter 1 output will trigger an A/D conversion on USB-4716.
Field Wiring Considerations When you use USB-4716 to acquire data from outside, noise in the environment might significantly affect the accuracy of your measurements if due precautions are not taken. The following measures will be helpful to reduce possible interfer- ence running signal wires between signal sources and USB-4716.
