Description
The ADU70 USB Load Cell (Strain Gauge) Interface enables wheatstone bridge measurements with 24-bit resolution at sample rates up to 150Hz.
The internally isolated excitation voltage of 5.000V is suitable for most wheatstone bridge based strain gauges.
This low-cost USB Load Cell (Strain Gauge) Interface is easy to use with VB, VB.NET, Visual C++,
C , MATLAB, LABView etc. via standard HID drivers included with Windows.
A mini-driver (DLL) is also provided allowing control using standard ASCII commands using familiar readfile, writefile commands.
The ADU70 includes a 10' USB cable and is available in a flange mount enclosure with a DIN rail mount option.
