Introduction 1
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The USB-61210 is a 16-bit high-speed USB 2.0-based DAQ module
equipped with 4 analog input channels providing simultaneous sampling
at up to 2MS/s per channel. The USB-61210 delivers high accuracy and
excellent dynamic performance at maximum sampling rates and fea-
tures flexible trigger function. In addition, onboard 256MS FIFO ensures
no data loss during acquisition even with heavy loading on CPU or sys-
tem.
The USB-61210 is USB bus powered and equipped with removable
screw-down terminals for easy device connectivity, and the included
multi-functional stand can be used for desktop, rail, or wall mounting.
Suitable for high-speed data acquisition, laboratory and medical
research, the USB-61210 provides a reliable measurement solution at
an affordable price.

1.5.2 Module Stand
The multi-function USB-61210 stand is compatible with desk, rail, or
wall mounting. To fix the module in the stand, slide the module body
into the stand until a click is heard. To remove the module from the
stand, twist the bottom of the stand in a back-and forth motion and sep-
arate from the module.
