Description
The National Instruments USB-6501 Digital I/O Device is a versatile PC-based digital I/O device designed to meet a wide range of automation and control needs. The part numbers associated with this device include 192317F-01L, 779205-01, and 192317-50, ensuring a variety of options for identifying the specific model required for your application.
This device falls under the category of PC-based Digital I/O and carries the model number USB-6501. It is equipped with a green LED indicator for device status, which exhibits three states: Off indicating the device is not connected or is in suspended mode, On showing the device is connected but not initialized, and a Single Blink to signify the device is working normally.
For connectivity, the USB-6501 features two connector plugs with screw terminals suitable for 16 AWG to 28 AWG wires. This ensures secure and reliable connections for various wiring setups. Protection against overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent is built into the device, safeguarding your investments and operations from unexpected electrical anomalies.
The device is powered by a 5 V supply through two pins on the terminals, although the actual voltage may vary depending on the system it is connected to. With 24 digital input/output lines, the USB-6501 offers ample capacity for managing multiple signals in complex setups. The default configuration for the DIO ports is an open collector, which allows for the addition of an external pull-up resistor if needed.
Each line supports a source current drive limit of up to 8.5 mA when an external pull-up resistor is utilized, providing flexibility in interfacing with various external devices. Communication with computers is facilitated through a USB 2.0 bus connector, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of systems. Lastly, the device accepts a digital input voltage range of -0.3 V to 5.8 V, accommodating various signal levels for maximum operational versatility.
