ACL-8112 Series
Enhanced Multi-Function Data Acquisition Cards
Up to 100 KHz, Windows 3.1 / Windows 95 / Windows NT supported

Description

The ACL-8112 Series is the next generation of the ACL-812PG, which is fully compatible with Advantech's PCL-812PG. The register structure of this series is fully compatible with the ACL-812PG, so all of the software for ACL-812PG will run with the ACL-8112 Series.

The ACL-8112 Series consists of three products, the ACL-8112HG, the ACL-8112PG and ACL-8112DG. The table below gives quick outline how these cards compare :

Software

All the software which runs on the ACL-812PG andAdvantech's PCL-812PG can also run on the ACL-8112 Series. This means the ACL-8112 Series is 100% register compatible with the ACL/PCL 812PG cards. It is also completely compatible with other data acquisition software such as LabTech's Notebook, DasyTech's, DasyLAB, NT's LabVIEW and LabWindows, Advantech's Genie, etc.

For the users who are writing their own programs, the ACL-8112 Series is supported by a comprehensive set of drivers and programming tools. Software
support is provided for Utility, C/C++ Program Library, Windows DLL Driver and Data Acquisition Software Kit (ACLS-DASK and ACLS-DLL2).
