Measurement Categories
Warning For use in measurement category I (CAT I) only. Do not use in
measurement category II/III/IV. Use this device to connect
signals or make measurements.
Measurement categories Note
Measurement categories I (CAT I) means that measurements are made on a circuit that
is not directly connected to the main power supply. For example, a circuit that is not
exported from the main power supply, especially a circuit that is exported from a
protected (internal) primary power supply, is measured. In the latter case, the
instantaneous stress will change. Therefore, the user should be aware of the
instantaneous affordability of the device.
Measurement categories II (CAT II) means that measurements are made on a circuit
that is directly connected to a low-voltage device. For example, a measurement on
household appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.
Measurement categories III (CAT III) means that measurements are made in
construction equipment. For example, a measurement on the distribution boards, circuit
breakers, wiring (including cables, Busbars, junction boxes, switches, sockets) in fixed
equipment and equipment for industrial use and certain other equipment (for example,
fixed motors that are permanently connected to fixtures).
Measurement categories IV (CAT IV) means that measurements are made on the source
of low-voltage equipment. For example, a measurement on a meter, a major
overcurrent protection device, and a pulse control unit.

3.2. Signal Connection Mode
When the USB-5100 series data acquisition device performs analog input
measurement, it supports continuous acquisition mode or limited number acquisition
mode. The sampling rates of both modes are hardware-timed. The limited number
acquisition mode is called OneShot mode.
Hardware timing mode
Hardware timing means that the sampling rate of AI acquisition is controlled by a
hardware digital signal (AI sampling clock, which can be generated internally or
externally.
Please refer to the chapter of “Synchronization system” for detailed settings for using
externally provided sampling clocks.
Continuous acquisition mode
Continuous acquisition mode refers to continuous and uninterrupted collection of data
at defined sampling speed.
Figure 3.1 analog input circuit
The AI acquisition connection mode of the USB-5100 series data acquisition device
supports grounding reference single-ended input. The positive end of the analog input
signal is connected to the Ain port of the analog input port, and the negative end of the
input signal is linked to the AGND port.
3.3. Signal acquisition mode
竺 m 立五， cq.
PGA ADC

18 |
In continuous acquisition mode, after the AI acquisition is triggered, the acquisition
device collects the signal at a fixed sampling speed, buffers data into FIFO, and
continuously uploads the data in the FIFO to the computer memory buffer. The user
program only needs to continuously process the data in memory to achieve continuous
uninterrupted data acquisition.
If the user program does not process the data fast enough, the data will gradually fill the
2M points of storage space in computer memory buffer. New data cannot be written
correctly after the memory is filled up, resulting in discontinuous data.
Limited number acquisition mode
Limited number acquisition mode (OneShot mode refers to one time acquisition to get
the set number of collection points at the set sampling speed
In OneShot mode, after the AI acquisition triggers, the acquisition device
automatically stops the acquisition after the acquisition reaches the set number of
times according to the set sampling speed. The user program only needs to read the set
data amount from the computer memory buffer.
Attention The set number of collection points cannot exceed 2MPts.
3.4. AI sampling clock
The USB-5100 series data acquisition device has a rich collection timing option.
The schematic diagram of the AI sampling clock is shown in Figure 3.2.

AI sampling clock
Figure 3.2 AI sampling clock options
The AI acquisition uses the AI timer signal as the AI sampling clock by default. The AI
acquisition can be set via software to use other sampling clock sources to achieve the
synchronization of each function.
All timers can be set in steps of 10ns, but the set sampling rate cannot exceed the
maximum sampling rate supported by the device.
The external sampling clock source input from Conv_IN cannot be set to divide or
multiply. It can only be used directly as the sampling clock. The AI timer output signal
can be set to the Conv_OUT pin via software for simultaneous synchronization of
multiple devices.

Figure 3.3 AI trigger options
The AI acquisition uses the AiSoftTrig software trigger as the trigger source by default.
The AI acquisition can use other trigger sources via software settings to achieve the
synchronization of each function.
AiSoftTrig software trigger and GlobalSoftTrig global software trigger are software
triggers, which are used to send a command to the acquisition device to initiate
device triggering.
Ext_Trig_IN external trigger means that when Ext_Trig_IN receives a rising edge, the
device triggers. The AI trigger signal can be set to the Ext_Trig_OUT pin via software for
multiple device synchronization. See the "Synchronization System" chapter for details on
the external trigger.
The Din_0 ~ Din_1 edge trigger means that when the DIO is configured as an input,
the DIO pin receives a rising edge and the device triggers.
DI acquisition trigger, DO acquisition trigger, AO_0 output trigger, AO_1 output trigger,
AO_2 output trigger, and AO_3 output trigger can be used to trigger the AI function
alongside their own functions to achieve the synchronization of each function.
The USB-5100 series data acquisition device provides rich trigger options. The
schematic diagram of the AI acquisition trigger options are shown in Figure 3.3.
