DBK214

16-Connector BNC Interface ModuleFeatures• Provides BNC access to 16 inputs oroutputs, user configurable• Also provides screw-terminal connectors for all signals
The DBK214 BNC module provides 16 BNC
connectors for accessing analog I/O, digital
I/O, or counter/timer signals. In addition,screw-­terminal connections for all signals
are accessed by removing the DBK214’s
top cover.
Eight of the BNC connectors are predefined as analog inputs and are jumper
selectable as single ended or differential.
Another eight BNC connectors can be
configured by the user on a per channel
basis as an analog input or output, digitalI/O, or counter/timer channels. ­Signals
attached to screw-terminal connections
are routed through a slot in the front ofthe DBK214. The DBK214 is housed in ashielded metal enclosure which can bemounted to other DBK signal ­conditioning
and expansion modules.

The DBK214 provides 16 BNC inputs or outputs, and internal screw-terminal connections

TB916Ch 0When used with any DaqBoard/2000 Series
PCI board*, a single CA-195 100-pin cable
is used to connect a DaqBoard to the P4
port on the DBK214. Male DB37 connectors on the DBK214 provide P1, P2, and P3
ports for another way to access signals orto connect DBK signal ­conditioning and­expansion cards.
The DBK214 can also be used with any
DaqBook, DaqScan, DaqLab, or LogBook
Series product. The DB37 P1, P2, and P3
connectors on the DBK214 connect theseproducts to the DBK214. Multiple CA-37-1
or CA-255-4T cables are used to connect
each P1, P2, and P3 port on the DBK214
to the P1, P2 and P3 ports on the main
A/D unit. A separate cable is needed toconnect each port.
