2 Introduction
The ibaPADU-4-AI-U compact device has been developed for capturing and recording
fast analog signals. The sampling rate can be adjusted freely up to 100 kHz max. The
device offers 4 electrically isolated voltage inputs. The measuring ranges of these inputs
are adjustable in several stages from ±250 mV up to ±24 V.
Antialiasing filters limit the bandwidth of the input signal in order to reduce disturbances.
A digital filter can be activated per channel together with an analog antialiasing filter. The
digital antialiasing filter is adjusted automatically to the configured sampling rate.
The signals are converted internally and are available via the fiber optics (FO) interface.
By means of the ibaPDA online-data acquisition software, you can choose and configure
the signals conveniently. The communication between ibaPDA and ibaPADU-4-AI-U is
handled by the bidirectional fiber optic protocol 32Mbit Flex, which requires an I/O card
from the ibaFOB-D generation, e. g. ibaFOB-2io-D.
In brief
4 electrically isolated analog inputs
Input signal level ±250 mV; ±500 mV; ±1 V; ±2.5 V; ±5 V; ±10 V; ±24 V,
can be adjusted for each channel
16 bit resolution
Sampling rate of 100 kHz max. freely adjustable in a point-to-point connection
(if connected in a ring topology with 32Mbit Flex, max. sampling rate is 40 kHz)
Real parallel measured value acquisition by an A/D converter per channel
Antialiasing filters can be activated
ibaNet protocol 32Mbit Flex (FO)
Rugged design, easy mounting

6 Mounting and dismounting
6.1 Mounting
1. Locate the DIN rail mounting clip on the rear side of the device. Slowly push down
and in so that the bottom part of the mounting clips snaps onto the bottom part of the
rail and firmly fixes the device to the DIN rail.
2. Connect the 24 V DC power supply to the termination shown on the device. Ensure
that the polarity is correct prior to applying power. Then connect the device to the
ibaPDA system via a bidirectional FO cable.
6.2 Dismounting
1. Disconnect all external connections from the device.
2. Grasp the device with one hand firmly on the top side. With your free hand, grasp the
bottom of the device and push it lightly down.
3. After that pull the device and lift it up. With this action, the device should free itself
from the DIN rail.
