    #3 (Step 2) Connect your ADC-8U15HG Analog to Digital Converter to any available USB port on your computer using a analog input #4 CC-USBB cable (1 to 15 foot). A high percentage of systems will be up to date and you will not see any activity or a analog ground pop-up message (allow up to 30 seconds for any system message).

    Windows applications from ReadInputs(); sending or receiving data from the ADC-8U15HG. The data logger may be enabled by checking the box in the data logger section and entering the desired time interval and file type information. See page 12 for additional information.
  • Page 5 15 bit single ended or 16 bit fully differential - 1,024 increments per mv. The ADC-8U15HG may be set to accept (4) fully differential inputs in place of the (8) single ended inputs. The differential voltage input range is determined by the reference setting as shown on the previous page. The differential Option 11: .016 volt - allows a (0 to .016) volt input range or (-.016 to +.016) volts fully differential (= 0 to 16mv)
