DaqBook/100 Series & /200 Series and DaqBoard [ISA type] Configuration
Use of the DBK8 expansion card with DaqBooks/100 Series & /200 Series devices and
DaqBoards [ISA type] requires 3 jumper settings.
1. If not using auxiliary power, place the JP1 jumper in the expanded analog (Analog Option Card Use)
mode. This is indicated for JP1, in the following figure.

DaqBook/100 Series & /200 Series and DaqBoard [ISA-Type] Jumper Settings for the DBK8
Note: JP1’s default position is necessary to power the interface circuitry of the DBK42 via the internal
+15 VDC power supply. If using auxiliary power cards DBK32A or DBK33, you must remove
both JP1 jumpers. Refer to Power Requirements in the DBK Basics section, as well as to the
DBK32A and DBK33 sections of the manual.
2. For DaqBook/100, DaqBook/112, and DaqBook/120 only, place the JP3 jumper in Bipolar Mode.
3. For DaqBook/100, DaqBook/112, and DaqBook/120 only, place the JP4 jumper in Single-Ended
Mode.
DaqBook/2000 Series & DaqBoard/2000 Series Configuration
No jumper configurations are required for these 2000 series devices.
Daq Device Connection
Several options exist for placement of the DBK8 card in a system. Because the inputs can be high-voltage,
the card should be physically secure and out of harm’s way. DBK8 will install in the 3-position DBK10
chassis, 10-position DBK41 card cage, the card slot in either the DaqBook/112 or /216, or in a section of a
snap-in mounting track (mounted to a secure surface), or used as an insulated holder for a loose DBK8.
Safe Mounting
Several options exist for placement of the DBK8 card in a system. Because the inputs can be high-voltage,
the card should be physically secure and out of harm’s way. The DBK8 will install readily in the 3-
position DBK10 chassis, the 10-position DBK41 card cage, or in a section of a snap-in mounting track
mounted to a secure surface or used as an insulated holder for a loose DBK8.
