ChannelStretch™
Expand the channel count of your DI-4730 with ChannelStretch. Connect up to 16 DI-4730, DI-4718B, DI-4108,
and/or DI-4208 devices with a powered USB hub (multiple cascaded/connected powered USB hubs can be used) or
Ethernet switch to record more than 8 channels of data to a single WinDaq file. Synchronized units must use the same
communications interface to sync. This provides a total of up to 128 analog channels and 112 digital ports at a
maximum throughput rate of 480 kHz. Cascade multiple USB hubs or Ethernet switches to expand port count.
Synchronized instruments must have the same sample rate per channel, regardless of channel number, type, or range.
The WinDaq/Unlock option
per instrument
is required to synchronize two or more devices when using WinDaq
software.
