Product Highlights

• Logs when, how long, and how many times events occur
• Eight measurement channels
• Isolated high voltage inputs connect to any ±300V or 230 VAC rms source
• Four low voltage inputs to detect activity from switch closures, TTL-level signals, or DC levels (up to 30 Volts)
• Records to removable, SD-style memory in csv (comma-separated value) file format
• Four measurement modes
• Built-in USB interface
• CE approved

The DI-160 features programmable capture modes to detect events (when the events happen), states (how long between events) and counts (how many events). An internal real time clock provides time and date stamping for each captured quantity, and storage is accomplished to a removable SD-style memory card.

Data storage format is comma-separated value (CSV) so recorded files are humanreadable and easily imported to other applications like Microsoft Excel.

The DI-160 features eight input channels split between four high voltage and four low voltage types. The high voltage channels may be connected to any ±300V or 230 VAC rms source and feature input-to-output and channel-to-channel isolation of 500 VDC or ±250 V peak AC. The four low voltage inputs are internally pulled-up and may be used to detect activity from switch closures, TTL-level signals, or DC levels up to 30 Volts.

A USB interface is provided to allow the DI-160 to be configured for measurements. The unit can be powered by an AC adaptor or an internal rechargeable battery. Three status LEDs are provided: USB interface detected, sampling, and battery charging.

Built-in battery with AC power option

Allows the DI-160 to operate independent of AC power, and also to bridge power outages if running on AC power.

Twenty-one programmable sample intervals

Allows the DI-160 to adapt to a wide range of event input intervals from one second to 24 hours.

Isolated high voltage inputs

Connects directly to real world signals like motors, actuators, controllers, etc. and eliminates the need for extraneous external conditioners.

Removable, SD-style memory

Allows the DI-160 to store virtually limitless quantities of data, and facilitates data extraction by simply swapping memory cards (Please Note: Memory cards cannot be swapped during a recording session).

Built-in USB interface

Connects directly to a PC without the need for external adaptors.

Four measurement modes in one instrument

Allows the DI-160 to be easily reconfigured for a range of different measurements without needing to deploy separate instruments.

Eight measurement channels

Provides the flexibility to measure several quantities at once, since each channel can be programmed for either event or state operation, with as many as three pulse counter inputs.

CSV file generation

Creates human-readable ASCII files that are easily imported to a variety of applications and operating systems for detailed analysis and report generation. The most popular application, Microsoft Excel, is directly compatible.

Internal nonvolatile configuration memory

Stores configuration information and allows the instrument to be easily programmed in one location and deployed in another. The configuration stays with the instrument, eliminating the need to track multiple SD memory cards.
