4.
In the Analog and Binary Signal Acquisition dialogue window:
a.
Specify the desired Channel counts by clicking the down-arrow next to the Used:
1)
Binary entry field to specify the number of binary input signals to be used, (tagged), and/or
2)
Analog entry field to specify the number of analog input signals to be used, (tagged).
NOTE
The Available display windows, for both Binary and Analog indicate the number of channels
supported.
b.
Select the desired Samples by click on the associated radial button:
1)
1 Sample per image directs the system to capture 1 sample per image.
2)
Max samples per image directs the system to capture multiple samples to each image. This
maximum number of samples is displayed in the Sample per Image field.
NOTE
The more channels being sampled the smaller the Sample per image will become. You can
choose "1 Samples per image" or a "Maximum number of samples per image", which will be
calculated by the Phantom Camera Control application. The maximum number of samples is
determined by the frame rate and the number of channels be sampled.
c.
Define the Analog Channels, (ACh0 through ACh7 that represent the analog channel inputs
connect to the data acquisition module).
1)
Enable, (check), Bipolar range to instruct the system to capture a value defined by two
inputs, (positive and negative value samples), or
2)
Enable, (check), Differential inp. to instruct the system to capture a differential input.
3)
Specify a Name to define a nomenclature to channels ACh0 through ACh7, (Analog Channel
0 through Analog Channel 7), for ease of reference.
4)
Use the down-arrow next the an AnaGain, (Analog Gain), entry window to adjust the gain
value in preset gains.
5)
Enter a Gain to adjust the value to the required measurement value.
6)
Specify the Unit, the measurement unit, (i.e., PSI - Pounds per Square Inch, etc.)
7)
Enter the ACh channel number, (the analog channel ACh8 through ACh32), to view its
sample value. When more than 8 channels are selected, the values for AnaGain and Gain
parameters of channels ACh8 through ACh32 is the same with those of ACh7.
NOTE
The Current Value information fields display the current sample value. The Parameters from
ACh7 indicates the Current Value for the channel specified in the ACh field just to the left of the
Parameter from ACh7 field.
d.
Define the Binary Channels, (BCh0 through BCh7 that represent the binary channel inputs
connect to the data acquisition module).
1)
Specify a Name to define a nomenclature to channels BCh0 through BCh7, (Binary Channel
0 through Binary Channel 7), for ease of reference.
2)
Enter the BCh channel number, (the binary channel BCh8 (DT9802), or BCh8 through
BCh14 (DT3010), to incorporate the sample value information, when more than 8 binary
channels are sampling data via the data acquisition module.
