IOTech, Incorporated declares under sole responsibility that the product

USB-1616HS-2

to which this declaration relates is in conformity with the relevant provisions of the following standards or other documents:

EU EMC Directive 89/336/EEC: Electromagnetic Compatibility, EN 61326 (1997) Amendment 1 (1998)

Emissions: Group 1, Class A

ƒEN 55022 (1993)/CISPR 22: Radiated and Conducted emissions. Immunity: EN61326, Annex A

ƒIEC 61000-4-2 (1995): Electrostatic Discharge immunity, Criteria B.

ƒIEC 61000-4-3 (1995): Radiated Electromagnetic Field immunity Criteria A.

ƒIEC 61000-4-4 (1995): Electric Fast Transient Burst immunity Criteria A.

ƒIEC 61000-4-6 (1996): Radio Frequency Common Mode immunity Criteria A.

ƒIEC 61000-4-11 (1994): Voltage Dips, Interruption immunity.

To maintain the safety, emission, and immunity standards of this declaration, the following conditions must be met.

ƒThe host computer, peripheral equipment, power sources, and expansion hardware must be CE compliant.

ƒEquipment must be operated in a controlled electromagnetic environment as defined by Standards EN 61326:1998, or IEC 61326:1998.

ƒShielded wires must be used for all I/Os and must be less than 3 meters (9.75 feet) in length. Clips must be used with the AI-EXP48.

ƒThe host computer must be properly grounded.

ƒThe host computer must be USB2.0 compliant and IOtech USB cables (CA-179-x) must be used.

ƒIf using the USB-1616HS Series device in a high RF environment (3 to 10 V/m), then a clamp-on ferrite (IOtech p/n L- 8-1) may be needed on the USB cable, otherwise communication may be disrupted.

ƒA protective ESD wrist strap should be used when connecting or disconnecting leads from screw terminal blocks. Alternatively, unplug the unit from the host computer when making connections. Protective housings (IOtech p/n CN-241-12) can be placed over the removable terminal blocks to protect signals from ESD during operation.

ƒIf external DC power is needed, a TR-2U power supply must be used.

Note: Data acquisition equipment may exhibit noise or increased offsets when exposed to high RF fields (>3V/m) or transients.

Declaration of Conformity based on tests conducted by Smith Electronics, Inc., Cleveland, OH 44141, USA in December, 2005. Test records are outlined in Smith Electronics Test Report “Personal Daq/3000 Series with PDQ30 Expansion Module” and “PDAQ3000-PDQ30 Addenda”.

We hereby declare that the equipment specified conforms to the above Directives and Standards.
