D A separate socket (DIGITAL I/O) offers eight digital inputs and
eight lines which can be used as digital inputs or outputs, as
channel 8. The digital inputs can be measured synchronously
with the other channels or requested using a separate command.
This port also has a trigger input.
D A PC or another Spider8 can be connected to the PC/MASTER
socket. This enables up to eight Spider8s to be cascaded with a
total of 64 channels. No further settings are required for this, i.e.
the computer perceives a Spider8 system simply as one device
with 8, 16 or even 64 channels which are all synchronised with
each other.
The channels in the first device are automatically numbered 0 to
8, those in the second device 10 to 18 and those in the last
device 60 to 68.
If no printer port is available on the computer the Spider8 can
also be connected to the computer via an RS232 serial interface
using a cable which is likewise supplied.
