Analog Inputs
The LabJack UE9 has 14 external analog inputs (AIN0-AIN13). AIN0-AIN3 are available on screw terminals and also on the DB37 connector. All 14 analog
inputs are available on the DB37 connector.
Each analog input can be configured individually as unipolar (four ranges from 0-5 volts to 0-0.625 volts) or bipolar (±5 volts). Analog input resolution is
12-bits at max speed (12 us conversion time), increasing up to 16-bits at slower speeds (2.7 ms conversion time).
Command/response (software timed) analog input reads typically take 1.2+ ms depending on number of channels and communication configuration.
Hardware timed input streaming has a maximum rate that varies with resolution from 250 samples/s at 16-bits to 50+ ksamples/s at 12-bits.
The UE9-Pro has all the features of the normal UE9 with the addition of an auxiliary low-speed hi-resolution (24-bit) sigma-delta ADC. This converter
takes about 125 ms per sample and provides an effective resolution of about 20-bits (18-bits noise free) over the 0-5 or +/-5 volt ranges. Linearity and
accuracy are also improved compared to the normal converter.
For more information about the analog inputs see Section 2.7 and Appendix A of the User's Guide. For data rate information see Sections 3.1 and
Sections 3.2. The User's Guide can be found on the UE9 downloads page.
Analog Outputs
The LabJack UE9 has 2 analog outputs (DAC0 and DAC1) that are available both on screw terminals and the DB37 connector. Each analog output can be
set to a voltage between 0 and 4.9 volts with 12-bits of resolution. The analog outputs are based on a true voltage reference.
The analog outputs are updated in command/response mode, with a typical update time of 1.2-4.0 ms depending on communication configuration.
For more information about the analog outputs see Section 2.8 and Appendix A of the User's Guide. For data rate information see Section 3.1. The User's
Guide can be found on the UE9 downloads page.
Digital I/O
The LabJack UE9 has 23 digital I/O channels which can be individually configured as input, output-high, or output-low. 8 of these lines are called flexible
digital I/O (FIO) and can be software configured as up to 6 timers and 2 counters.
The first 4 FIO are available on screw terminals and the DB37 connector. All 8 FIO and 3 MIO are available on the DB37 connector, and 8 EIO and 3 CIO
are available on the DB15 connector.
Command/response (software timed) reads/writes typically take 1.2-4.0 ms depending on communication configuration. The digital inputs can also be
read in a hardware timed input stream where up to 16 inputs count as a single stream channel.
