    Excellent functionality, simple but powerful

    Posted by LR on 8th Aug 2016

    This A/D device is easy to use, with software that comes with it on CD (can also be downloaded if computer doesn't have CD-ROM drive). The software includes calibration software, virtual oscilloscope, and there is also sample code in C++ and other languages available on the website for a quick start. It was simple to modify one of the template programs for our needs. Works fine with our OS (Windows 10). Seems robust as well.

    USB-1208LS

    Posted by [email protected] on 18th Jul 2016

    I have been using mostly NI equipment and came across MC products from the trade show. I am the Test engineering manager of Neptune and I buy about 300K per year of NI equipment and software. I use LabView in all of my groups development and this product integrated very easily into the development system I use. I will continue to look at the rest of the product offered and evaluate more of MC products going forward.

    this device has high resolution and good price. Perfect for our applications!

    Posted by john on 19th Jun 2016

    I've had technical problems with my install a couple of times and the engineers either figure it out on the phone or send me an e-mail with the solution. They know their stuff!

    Great product to use with your software

    Posted by Christian on 21st Feb 2016

    Excellent unit to include in your program to measure voltages and temperatures etc. Be careful to protect the digital input lines from voltage spikes

    good product for deploying custom instrument

    Posted by Bridger on 31st Jan 2016

    We have used the USB-1408FS for a few years now as the data acquisition side of a low volume water quality instrument. We have migrated to the Plus version now without any problems. We have passed through WIN XP, Vista, 7, 8, and now 10 with only minor issues of driver updates and the 32 to 64 bit transition. So I can say we are very pleased with this product and the support (drivers and technical guidance) which MCC delivers. Good luck with your application.

    Excellent

    Posted by johng on 25th Oct 2015

    I love this product. I have been using this 1208 for about 15 years now. It always performs to the standards I need with communicating my software and pumps. It plays a vital role in my Instruments. Thanks for always being there.

    simple, accurate, reliable data acquisition

    Posted by schlott on 27th Jul 2015

    We have used this USB-1408 series data acquisition module to support a specialty scientific instrument for several years with great results. The drivers supplied by MCC are reliable and easy to work with. The code is simple to maintain and evolve, and the hardware has remained backwardly compatible as they have evolved it.
