  2. WHAT IS A LABJACK? • An interface box that allows a computer to interact with the real world by collecting data and passing out instructions to allied equipment.

  3. USB, DB25 Plus 30 screw connectors to reach the real world • The external features of the LabJack U12 are: • • USB connector, • • DB25 digital I/O connector, • • Status LED, • • 30 screw terminals. • The USB connection provides power and communication. No external power supply is needed. The +5 volt connections available at various locations are outputs, do not connect a power supply.

  4. Connections AI0 – AI7 • The LabJack U12 has 8 screw terminals for analogue input signals. These can be configured individually and on-the-fly as 8 single-ended channels, 4 differential, or combinations in between. Each input has a 12-bit resolution and an input bias current of ±90 μA. • Single-Ended: The input range for a single-ended measurement is ±10 volts. • Differential channels can make use of the low noise precision PGA to provide gains up to 20, giving an effective resolution greater than 16-bits. In differential mode, the voltage of each AI with respect to ground must be between ±10 volts, but the range of voltage difference between the 2 AI is a function of gain (G)

  5. Included Software •LJconfig: Lists all LabJacks connected to the USB and allows the local ID to be set on each. • LJcounter: Reads the LabJack counter and provides the current frequency or count. • LJfg (Function Generator): Outputs basic waveforms on AO0 (analogue output zero). • LJlogger: Saves data to disk, writes data to an HTML page on the Internet, and performs various actions (including email) on trigger events. • LJscope: Simulates an oscilloscope by reading data from 2 AI channels in burst mode. • LJstream: Uses stream mode to read, graph, and write to file, 4 AI channels. • LJtest: Runs a sequence of tests on the LabJack itself. • LJSHT: Retrieves and records data from 1 or 2 EI-1050 digital temperature/humidity probes. • LJSHTmulti: Displays data from up to 20 EI-1050 digital temperature/humidity probes.
