Product Warranty (2 years)

Advantech warrants the original purchaser that each of its products will be free from

defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.

This warranty does not apply to any products that have been repaired or altered by

persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or that have been sub-

ject to misuse, abuse, accident, or improper installation. Advantech assumes no lia-

bility under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.

Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most

customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defective,

it will be repaired or replaced free of charge during the warranty period. For out-of-

warranty repairs, customers are billed according to the cost of replacement materials,

service time, and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you believe your product is defective, follow the steps outlined below.

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU

speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note

anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages displayed when the prob-

lem occurs.

2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Have your manual, product, and any

relevant information readily available.

3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain a return merchandize authori-

zation (RMA) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return

more quickly.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a completed Repair and Replacement

Order Card, and a proof of purchase date (such as a photocopy of your sales

receipt) into a shippable container. Products returned without proof of purchase

date are not eligible for warranty service.

1Introduction

This chapter will provide informa-

tion on the features of the DAS

module, a quick start guide for

installation, and some brief infor-

mation on software and accesso-

ries for the USB-4716 Module.

Section include:

 Features

 Software Overview

USB-4716 User Manual 2

1.1 Features

Thank you for buying the Advantech USB-4716 data acquisition (DAS) module for

USB port. It features a unique circuit design and complete functions for data acquisi-

tion and control.

USB-4716 has the following measurement & control functions:

16 single-ended/ 8 differential or combination analog input channels

16-bit resolution A/D converter, with up to 200 kS/s sampling rate

8 digital input & 8 digital output channels (TTL Level)

2 analog output channels

16-bit programmable counter/timer x 1

Programmable gain for each analog input channel

Automatic channel/gain scanning

Onboard 1K samples FIFO buffer for AI channels

Bus-powered

Device status LED indicator

Removable on-module wiring terminal

Supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed

Auto calibration function

Hot swappable

1.2 Software Overview

Advantech offers device drivers, SDKs, third-party driver support and application

software to help fully exploit the functions of your DAQ system. All these software

packages are available on the Advantech website: http://www.advantech.com/.

The Advantech Navigator is a utility that allows you to set up, configure and test

your device, and later stores your settings in a proprietary database.

1. To set up the I/O device for your card, you should first run the Advantech Navi-

gator program (by accessing Start/Programs/Advantech Automation/DAQNavi/

Advantech Navigator).

2. You can then view the device(s) already installed on your system (if any) on the

installed device tree view. If the software and hardware installation are com-

pleted, you will see USB modules in the installed devices list.

DAQNavi SDK is a software development kit for programming applications with

Advantech DAQ products. The necessary runtime DLL, header files, software

manual and tutorial videos can all be installed via XNavi installer. They can be

found under C:\Advantech\DAQNavi (default directory) after finishing the instal-

lation.

Note! The USB chip on your system may have a limitation on the number of

USB devices it will support. Normally, only five USB-4716 devices can

be supported.

Note! The power output of an USB port is 500 mA, while the USB-4716

requires 360 mA (typical). This means that if an USB hub is used, it will

need an external power supply to support more than one USB-4716

device.
