Section 1 - Intr oduction Please read this manual completely befor e installing and operating your Omega data acquisition system. It’s important to read and follow all notes, cautions, warnings and safety precautions befor e operating this device. “Device” refers to your data acquisition unit.
When using OM-DAQ-USB-2401 unit to acquire data, computer energy save modes can cause false data readings. Prior to using the unit, ensure your computer’ s energy save mode is disabled. If needed, consult your PC user’ s manual to disable energy save (power suspension) modes.
*At highest scan rate, 1000 samples/sec +/- 1% with one channel on, +/- 5% with all channels on. The main items you will be using in your data acquisition system are the OM-DAQ-USB-2401 unit, its USB cable, and power adaptor .
Section 2 - Hardware It is important that you read this manual completely and follow all safety precautions befor e operating this instrument. 2.1 Package Inspection Remove the packing list and verify that you have received all your equipment.
Section 3 - Hardware Setup 3.1 OM-DAQ-USB-2401 System Components Figure 3-1. OM-DAQ-USB-2401 Hardware and Dimensions The external power por t is used in applications which have USB hubs that are not self-powered. See the next section for more information.
3.2.1 USB-powered Hubs These hubs draw all power from the host USB connector ’s power pins. The power is used for hub internal functions and for the hub’s ports.
3.3 Connecting Y our OM-DAQ-USB-2401 Acquisition System to PC When using a power adaptor with your DAQ system, be sure to supply power (from the adaptor to the DAQ) before connecting the USB cable. This allows your DAQ to inform the host computer (upon connection of the USB cable) that the unit requires minimal power from the computer .
3.4 Connecting V arious Hardware Setups ON-DAQ-USB-2401 data acquisition systems range from simple to complex. One example of a simple system is that of one OM-DAQ-USB-2401 connected to a PC’s USB connector . A much more complex system is one that contains 10 OM- DAQ-USB-2401 units and a combination of USB-powered and self-power ed hubs.
3.4.2 Connection to USB-powered Hub In this example, two OM-DAQ-USB-2401s are connected by cable to individual ports of a single USB-powered hub. Since the hub r eceives all its power from the computer ’s USB, the hub cannot supply adequate power to the DAQ units.

3.5.1 OM-DAQ-USB-2401 W all Mounting In order to mount the OM-DAQ-USB-2401 to the wall, you will need to: 1. Remove the rear scr ews from the OM-DAQ-USB-2401. 2. Align the mounting brackets with the rear holes on the DAQ unit (make sur e that the ears are facing outwar ds, like in the figure below).
Hardware Setup 3 3-8 3.5.2 OM-DAQ-USB-2401 DIN Rail Mounting In order to mount the OM-DAQ-USB-2401 to a DIN-Rail, you will need to: 1. Attach the DIN-rail plastic adaptors to the mounting brackets, using the four shorter screws. 2. Remove the rear scr ews from the OM-DAQ-USB-2401.

Software 4 4-14 4.4 Power Line Rejection The OM-DAQ-USB-2401 Series can take readings while making use of 50/60Hz line cycle rejection. While in the line cycle r ejection mode, the maximum sample rate is as follows: • 50 Hz rejection: Scan Rate (SR) Range: 0.
The converter is comprised of a 4th-order , delta-sigma ( Δ∑ ) analog-to-digital (A/D) converter modulator followed by a programmable digital filter . A flexible input multiplexer handles differ ential or single-ended signals; the programmable filter allows the user to optimize between a resolution of up to 23 bits noise-fr ee.
In DAQ applications, thermocouples should not be connected single-ended. Doing so can result in noise and false readings. This is especially true when acquiring other high-amplitude signals in conjunction with thermocouple signals that are connected single-ended.
Resolution (Effective Number of Bits - ENOB, RMS) – The number of r eliable data bits that exist for a signal’s measurement. The gr eater the resolution, the more detailed the r eading. For example, with an increased r esolution, a reading of 5.12 V could become 5.
4.11 Thermocouple Measurements The OM-DAQ-USB-2401 provides ef fortless thermocouple (TC) measurements. The unit includes built-in cold-junction compensation (CJC), which is automatically invoked when you select TC measurements. The DAQ unit automatically converts acquired voltage r eadings into compensated-linearized temperature r eadings.
Section 5 – Signal Management 5.1 Channel Control and Expansion In the OM-DAQ-USB-2401 system, the quantities and types of DAQ units used determine the system’s channel capacity . Up to 10 OM-DAQ-USB-2401s can be used with one host PC. See the Specifications for more detailed channel information.
Scan Rate vs. Resolution 2 Resolution Scan Rate 3,4 (Scans (ENOB 5 Speed Designation Scan Time 1 (s) per Second - SPS) RMS) V er y Slow , 50 / 60 Hz rejection 3600s>=ST >= 6.5s 0.0002778=< SR <= 22.5 0.153 Slow , 50 Hz rejection 6.5s> ST >= 1s 0.
The following table provides general advice r egarding the selection of Scan T ime. The concepts are further illustrated by the figur e, Examples of Under Sampling. Scan Time (Measurement Scan Rate Analog Input Signal Duration) (Sample Rate) Resolution Steady , or gradual change Long Low High Highly variable (unsteady) Short High Low Figure 5-1.
5.4 T riggering T riggering controls an acquisition cycle. Once the system is armed, a trigger is requir ed to collect the data. The user must determine the triggering requir ement based on the nature of the measurement and the amount of data needed to satisfy the system’s purpose.
Differential mode r efers to a mode, or circuit set-up, in which a voltage is measured between two signal lines. The measur ed differ ential voltage is used for a single channel. An advantage of using differ ential inputs is that they reduce signal errors and the induction of noise r esulting from gr ound current.
Resolution: An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts an analog voltage to a digital number . The digital number represents the input voltage in discr ete steps with finite resolution. ADC resolution is determined by the number of bits that repr esent the digital number .
5.9 Input and Source Impedance As illustrated below , the input impedance (Ri) of an analog-to-digital converter combines with the transducer ’s source impedance (Rs) forming a voltage divider . This divider distorts the voltage being read at the analog-to-digital converter .
Section 6 - CE Conformity 6.1 OM-DAQ-USB-2401 Design for CE Conformity The OM-DAQ-USB-2401 has been designed to meet requir ements as outlined in European Community EMC Dir ective EN61326. Three ferrite cor es are included in the OM-DAQ-USB-2401 package.
Figure 6-2 Ferrite Core The ferrite cores may be r emoved from the DAQ unit; however , in order to conform to CE standards, all of the ferrite cor es must be attached to the USB cable and power adapter . If the user is not using the power adapter but relying on power from the host USB connection, no ferrites are required.
Section 7 – T roubleshooting 7.1 Basic Checklist Power – Check USB cable connection. The green “PWR IND” LED should be lit on the DAQ device. If using a powered USB hub, make sur e its power cable is plugged in. Signal – Check signal lines and connections.
