CAUTION
Turn off power to all devices connected to the system before connecting cables or
setting configuration jumpers and switches. Electrical shock or damage to
equipment can result even under low-voltage conditions.
CAUTION
The discharge of static electricity can damage some electronic components.
Semiconductor devices are especially susceptible to ESD damage. You should
always handle components carefully, and you should never touch connector pins or
circuit components unless you are following ESD guidelines in an appropriate ESD
controlled area. Such guidelines include the use of properly grounded mats and
wrist straps, ESD bags and cartons, and related procedures.
Overview
DaqCal is a Windows-based program used to calibrate Daq systems, for example: DaqBoards, DaqBooks,
DaqScans, and DaqLabs. DaqCal can also be used to calibrate optional analog expansion cards.
Daq devices are factory-calibrated and you do not need to recalibrate the devices upon initially receiving
them.
Note: Certain DBK options are self-calibrating and do not require manual calibration by the user. Such
devices are disassociated from DaqCal, i.e., you cannot use DaqCal to calibrate them.
