Overview 
The DBK1 provides a convenient means of attaching analog input signals from BNC cables to a LogBook 
or Daq Device via the P1 interface. Each of the 16 inputs has a switchable 100 KΩ bias resistor to 
accommodate floating signal sources. The 16 inputs can be used as 16 single-ended inputs (channel 0 to 
15) or as 8 differential pairs (channel 0 to 7). The BNC inputs are grouped to reflect use in the differential 
mode (ch 0, ch 8, ch 1, ch 9, ch 2, ch 10 ...) where channel 8 serves as the low-signal line of channel 0 and 
so forth.
