I. The 208 DAIU
A) Function Description
The 208 Data Acquisition Interface Unit (DAIU) is a multi-channel
processing unit that interfaces directly to a computer. Two DAIUs can be
connected together for up to 16 channels of simultaneous data acquisition.
The computer controls data acquisition. As data is captured by the 208
DAIU, it is downloaded directly into the computers RAM (random access
memory).

Input Signals: Each 208 DAIU box accepts up to 8 channels of
displacement, velocity, and acceleration inputs. The 208 DAIU also
accepts process variable inputs, and input signals from most generic
dynamic transducers.
Keyphasor Inputs/Outputs: Up to 2 keyphasor! inputs can be assigned to
pairs of the signal input channels, allowing data acquisition on
machine trains with more than one shaft speed. See the discussion on
Keyphasor Assignments in Section 3 of this course for rules on
connecting Keyphasor signal cables to the 208 DAIUs.
Relay Inputs: Data acquisition can be initiated via remote relay by using the
Relay Input. (See Chapter 11 Advanced Sampling, page 15)
Communication Ports: The 208 DAIU is connected to the computer and to
an additional 208 DAIU through the Computer/DAIU Input and
DAIU Output ports.
Power Supply Input: Input from DC adapter is used to charge the internal
battery and to run on AC power.
C) The 208 DAIU Internal Battery
The internal nickel-cadmium battery will last up to 4 hours on a single
charge, and can typically handle up to 500 full charge cycles with less than
15% capacity loss. A full drain of the battery is recommended every 1-2
months to optimize battery performance. Charge times vary depending on
the battery type:
Battery Part Number Full Recharge Time
Standard Part No. 107305-01 Up to 5 hours
High Temperature Part No. 107306-01 Up to 15 hours
Power Supply Charger Upgrade: A hardware upgrade is available which
improves the performance of the internal battery charger. The
upgrade is accomplished by replacing PWA 102387-01 with PWA
131866-01.
