With the Datacontrol DC 2 laboratory instruments or instruments of other manufacturers with
analog output signals can be integrated in the labworldsoft control and evaluation program; these
instruments will be called analog instruments for short in the following.
The Datalogger converts the analog signal, e.g. in the range between 0 and 1 V into a
proportional standard signal which can be interpreted by
ODEZRUOGVRIW
.
The signals digitalized in the DC 2 can generally be used for further processing in downstream
functional units, e.g. for result display or arithmetic evaluation.
Several current and voltage classes are available for the analog instruments:
0 to 20 mA
4 to 20 mA
0 to 1 V
0 to 5 V
0 to 10 V
Measuring variables from a maximum of four analog instruments can be output
simultaneously via the DC2. The output paths or analog channels can be activated in the
parameter window. In the subsequent parameter window the analog instruments are
assigned to the channels of the DC2.
The analog instruments are classified into certain current and voltage ranges in a separate
window of the instrument configuration. This configuration must take place in a prior step.
Important:
Note the permissible current and voltage ranges of the Datacontrol DC2 before connecting
the analog instruments.
Analog instruments used in
ODEZRUOGVRIW
must be recorded in the selection list of the
instrument configuration.
A maximum of four instruments per Datacontrol can be assigned via the appropriate labels.
The parameter settings of the Datacontrol can be found under the following topics:

Defining analog channels
Proceed as follows:
1. Open the parameter window by double clicking on the symbol.
The parameter window appears. In the basic setting the analog channel No. 1 is
activated.
2. Set the general parameters (port code, Datalogger label).
3. Activate other analog channels by clicking on the corresponding control fields.
