If connecting your DaqBook to a notebook PC,
you can use a WBK20A, PCMCIA Interface Card.
Refer to separate instructions (supplied with the
WBK20A) if applicable.
If connecting your DaqBook to a desktop PC (with no
available EPP port), you can use a WBK21 Interface
card. Refer to separate instructions (supplied with the
WBK21) if applicable.
Reference Note: It is possible to use a VDC power source other than an AC-to-DC adapter.
Both the DBK Basics document module (included in this manual) and the DBK Option Cards
and Modules User’s Manual contain power-related information. The DBK manual is installed
on your hard drive during software installation. The default location is the Programs
directory.
