RS104 (HDL-0104-RS104): Starter Kit
The “RS104” (short for HDL-0104-RS104), an electronics hardware prototype, is a 4-channel rapid scan UT-for-NDT device targeting compact, isolated, low-energy point-of-application scanning that also requires wired connectivity.
DL0100A1: Connect ME (CME) Implementation and Testing
The DL0100A1 (DLITE0100A1) hardware is also compatible with the family of Connect modules from Digi International, including the ME (rectangular enclosed modules) and EM (exposed PCB, lower profile, flat-ish) series, both available in standard (Ethernet) and “Wi-” versions (WiFi). Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is also supported. This article presents manufacturer links, and implementation information basics. “CME” refers …

HDL-0104-RS104: Wire-to-Board Connections (Power and Communications)
The HDL-0104-RS104 is a prototype 4-channel rapid scan ultrasonics-for-NDT board for embedded applications that includes RS-485 communications, additional circuit protection components, and an isolated design. This article covers the basics of wire to board connections.
HDL-0108-RSCPT: Batch Capture and Sample Rate
References In the DacqMan code repository please see the README file for the Custom User Batch Output and search for the paragraphs regarding sample rate. See also: capture-options.json, as well as relevant code in the source. The comments in this post are a summary of the details in the source code and configuration files in …

Exact Tx-Rx Timing in DL-Family Hardware
Examples of how to assess and change transmit pulse and receive signal timing in the DLITE0100A1 firmware. This is a “flash” post: very quick, draft. You can also probe signals, both digital and analog, at various points on the hardware to get a real-world assessment. Nominally, the Rx Delay implementation has an offset and scale …

DLITE0100A1 Jumper (Shunt) Settings
Several jumpers or shunts on the board, typically placed in default locations, control configurable functionality and provide several implementation options and/or options for experimentation with the board. DL0100A1 (for short) is an 8-channel ultrasonic-for-NDT pulser-receiver board. In this article, photos are omitted by design.
