    Time saving cost effective

    Posted by whistlemeup on 27th Aug 2013

    I worked on military computers before they had transistors. Worked as an Engineer for over 40 years for Rolls Royce and find the MC USB-1608 cost effective and easy to use. Wow, how far we have come! I use LabVieiw modules to operate and monitor real time data and find the simplicity of this little device exciting.

    I use the USB-1608FS-Plus for general lab testing. It's great to have a cost effecient logger that is super portable and flexible. The use of DAQami and our custom written software makes the 1608 the go to testing device for quick, accurate lab based testing. I highly recommend this product!

    Does a great job and has many features on a small footprint

    Posted by blitz4cl on 3rd Aug 2013

    We use this interface in our car simulator for capturing feedback signals from the steering wheel, pedal and brake function. Some year ago we were using add-in interface cards in a computer. Today, we converted our interface to a USB type and we add to very slightly modify our user code to adapt it. The conversion was a charm by using the efficient MCDAQ libraries.

    I use this device to control some stepper motors and acquire data. Labview libraries are super easy to use.
