Hi Jon--
I'm 90% certain that the wingbeat analyzer often has 0-12 V output
setting (defualt) as well as 0-6 V setting, or thereabouts (the one
you want) -- there's a physical switch that needs to be toggled on
the wingbeat analyzer boards, as explained in the manual. Even when
in the 0-6 V setting want to position the fly such that the voltage
outputs never exceed 5 V, even with the largest wingbeat amplitudes,
as 5 V is the maximum expected by the controller board (I believe).
hope this helps,
Gaby

Hi Everyone,
We are having problems interfacing our wing beat analyzer with the
panel
controller board. The outputs from our wing beat analyzer are
anywhere from
-12V to +12V, but as far as we can tell the controller ADC inputs
should range
from 0-5V. Is this correct? If so, how do you interface the wing
beat
analyzer with the panel controller?
Thanks,
Jon
