LabMaster DeskTop ST - BNC 20
(Front View
showing the BNC connections)
The DeskTop ST - BNC 20 provides convenient industry standard BNC
connections
for
20 of the LabMaster signals in a small compact desktop unit measuring
only
11" wide
by 2" high by 7" deep (280mm x 51mm x 178mm).
Internally, each BNC connector has two wires - one for signal, and the
other for ground. Also inside the unit is a full custom screw
terminal that has "ALL" of the LabMaster signals. This unit
provides the user with the ability to "customize" the front panel
connections. Many applications
don't need all of the signals that the LabMaster can handle. The
DeskTop ST-BNC 20 was
created for those applications that just need a few of the signals (up
to 20). For
those applications that need all of the signals, Scientific Solutions
offers a different product, The DeskTop BNC unit
How do you configure the ST-BNC 20? You can either order the unit
pre-wired to what you want, or when you get the unit just open it up
and make the desired connections from the back of the BNC connectors
(wires already attached) to the internal
screw terminals. Inside the unit, you will also find a set of
"stickers" that can be placed on the front panel under each of the BNC
connectors. There is a label for each of the signals
available on the screw terminal.
For example, if you wanted 16 Analog input signals, 2 Digital IN and
2 Digital OUT; then you could connect the 20 BNC connections to these
signals. Then you would use the AIN 0, AIN 1, AIN 2, ...AIN 15
and the DI 0, DI 1, DO 0, DO 1 stickers (assuming these are the digital
connections you used) and apply these to the front
panel. That's all there is to it!
The DeskTop ST-BNC 20 provides the convenience of a fully-custom unit
with the cost-savings of an off-the-shelf design. You
"mechanically program" the unit by wiring the 20 BNC connections to any
of the signals on the internal screw terminal. You choose the
signals you want, in a small convenient DeskTop unit!
BNC connections are ideal for many applications. They are widely
used and
standard patch cables are easily obtained. They are rugged, yet easy to
use
and stay connected with the "twist-on" locking feature of the connector.
Front of the DeskTop ST- BNC 20 unit:
- 20 BNC Connections
- Can be wired to ANY of the LabMaster signals internally
- Light illuminates when the computer is ON and power is therefore
applied to the DeskTop unit.

terminals inside of the unit
- Labels
- There is a sheet of labels inside the unit. You use these
labels on the front of the unit to identify the particular signal
connection for the BNC. Since you use the labels when you change
the wiring and since you have to open the unit to change the wiring it
seems like a good idea to just store the labels in the unit!
- Custom labels are available...(just ask)...so you can label the
signals to match your application!
- Example, instead of AIN 0 (for Analog Input Channel 0) you
could have anything, like X-POS or whatever you want!

the unit (labels are pre-cut around the words!)
