Model 6000U, Enclosure 16-Slot, USB Data & Control Interface



Features

  • Enclosure for 16 I/O modules
  • USB 2.0 Interface provides up to 4.8 MS/s aggregate data rate
  • Calibration voltage distribution
  • Alarm busses for control external equipment
  • Optional remote operation using gigabit Ethernet
  • Optional on-board data storage
  • Built-in fans and cable tray

Description

The 6000U enclosure has 16 slots for Series 6000 input and output modules with a Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0) computer interface for programming, control and data output. For larger systems, up to 32 enclosures may be combined using USB 2.0 hubs or a computer with multiple USB 2.0 ports. The enclosures are 8U 19-inch rack mount. The enclosures have integral fans providing air circulation and an internal cable tray that routes the input and output cables from the front of the installed modules to exit the rear of the enclosure.

A sample clock bus is provided for multi-rack installations. Control and data transfer interface is USB 2.0, which provides high data transfer rates with low, predictable latency, readily available on most PC computers, including laptops. Maximum length of the interface cable is 3 meters but it may be extended further using Ethernet with the Control & Data Processor (CDP) option or a USB to Fiber/Ethernet extender.

Data Redundancy is optionally available. A 2.5" HD (Module 6095) mounts on the USB controller board in each 6000U enclosure and provides a redundant recording point for the DAS. In the unlikely event the Operators Workstation or DAS Software fails, data will continue to record in each enclosure. Data can be recovered from the system post-test.

The Control & Data Processor (CDP) interfaces multiple 6000U enclosures to gigabit Ethernet providing remote and/or distributed operation. The CDP is typically installed with the Series 6000 DAS and provides an Ethernet interface to the Operators Workstation. The CDP includes a high-speed processor and software that performs low-level operations freeing resources on the Operators Workstation computer for data display, storage, distribution and reduction.

The Operators Workstation (PCCOWU-DHD) is the primary control and data recording point for the Series 6000 DAS. The PCCOWU-DHD is typically installed in the control room and runs PI660 Data Acquisition Software for system setup, calibration, display, recording, distribution and export. In installations where the DAS is not remote from the Operators Workstation, the PCCOWU-DHD will connect directly to Series 6000 Enclosures and does not require the CDP.

16 or 32-bits, 2's complement binary.

Scan Table

Maximum format length is 65,536 samples.

Sample Rate

Multiple sample rates consisting of the highest sample rate divided by binary numbers. Highest sample rate is programmable with 1 µS resolution.


Data Interface

Output Rate

Processor dependent, up to 4.8 million 16-bit samples/second (4.8 MS/s).

Latency

Processor and scan table dependent, typically less than 5 milliseconds.

Clock Stability

Operation

Protocol

Control and data interface is USB 2.0.

Software

Windows 10 64-bit driver provides a high-level operating command set. Fully compatible with all implementations of PI660 operating software.

Control Inputs

TTL inputs for Start, Stop and Trigger assert flags in the header of output data that initiate software control operations.

Alarms

Warning and alarm buses may be independent or shared between enclosures and may initiate an output from a digital I/O type module.


Connections

Calibration

15-Pin Type D mounted on rear panel. Mating connector supplied.

Control

9-Pin Type D mounted on rear panel. Mating connector supplied.
