Radio and Television Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with CISPR EN55022 Class A and
EN61000-6-1 requirements and also with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Data Translation could
void your authority to operate the equipment under Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Note: This product was verified to meet FCC requirements under test conditions that
included use of shielded cables and connectors between system components. It is important
that you use shielded cables and connectors to reduce the possibility of causing interference
to radio, television, and other electronic devices.
Canadian Department of Communications Statement
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from
digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites
applicables aux appareils numériques de la class A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le
brouillage radioélectrique édicté par le Ministère des Communications du Canada.

Supported Software
The following software is available for use with the DT9850 Series module and is on the Data
Acquisition OMNI CD:
•DT9850 Series Device Driver – The device driver allows you to use a DT9850 Series
module with any of the supported software packages or utilities.
•Quick DataAcq application – The Quick DataAcq application provides a quick way to get
up and running using a DT9850 Series module. Using this application, you can verify key
features of the modules, display data on the screen, and save data to disk.
• DT-Open Layers for .NET Class Library – Use this class library if you want to use Visual
C# or Visual Basic for .NET to develop your own application software for a DT9850 Series
module using Visual Studio 2003 - 2012; the class library complies with the DT-Open
Layers standard.
•DataAcq SDK –Use the Data Acq SDK if you want to use Visual Studio 6.0 and Microsoft
C or C++ to develop your own application software for a DT9850 Series module using
Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8; the DataAcq SDK complies with the DT-Open
Layers standard.
•DAQ Adaptor for MATLAB – Data Translation’s DAQ Adaptor provides an interface
between the MATLAB Data Acquisition (DAQ) subsystem from The MathWorks and Data
Translation’s DT-Open Layers architecture.
•LV-Link –An evaluation version of LV-Link is included on the Data Acquisition OMNI
CD. Use LV-Link if you want to use the LabVIEW graphical programming language to
access the capabilities of the DT9850 Series module.
Refer to the Data Translation web site (www.datatranslation.com) for information about
selecting the right software package for your needs.
