Be sure to turn the power to the DataShuttle and computer off before making or
removing connections.
Always remove the AC adapter from the power line before disconnecting it from the
DataShuttle.
Physical Installation
Installation very simply consists of plugging the DataShuttles DB-25 cable into the parallel port outside
your computer. The DataShuttle may be used in combination with any of our data acquisition products.
To Install a DataShuttle
Single Unit Installation
1. TURN THE COMPUTER OFF. Never plug anything into the computers parallel port without first
turning its power switch to the off position.
2. Connect the parallel input connector, on the left side of the DataShuttle, to the parallel port on your
computer with the provided DB-25 cable. The parallel port on the PC has 25 pins and is often
labelled Printer or LPT. Computers may have up to four parallel ports; the DataShuttle may
be connected to any one of these.
3. Connect the provided AC Adapter to the 6-9V DC input just to the side of the parallel port of the
DataShuttle. Plug the AC Adapter into an AC power line.
4. Connect the sensors needed for your application: Remove the top cover of the DataShuttle by
removing the four screws in the corners of the unit. Connect the sensors needed for your application
to the DataShuttle screw terminals. Replace the cover. You may wish to refer to the Applications
Reference Manual for examples of particular applications.
Multiple Unit Installation
To install more than one DataShuttle Follow the steps above to install the first DataShuttle. Then for every
additional DataShuttle you wish to install, simply connect the parallel input port of that DataShuttle to the
passthrough port of the previously installed DataShuttle. You may use the additional DB-25 cables to do
this, or you can plug the next DataShuttle directly into the previous one. If you prefer to keep the units
separate, you may also connect additional DataShuttles directly to any or all of the other parallel ports on
your computer.
In any of these ways, you may connect up to 15 DataShuttles to one computer.
Please note, however, that only two DataShuttles, may be powered off the same 6V, 1 amp AC Adapter.
Therefore, you must connect a new AC Adapter (see Step 3 above) to every third DataShuttle in a series.
This number may vary outside the U.S.

The DS-16-8-5B models are shipped with a 5V DC, ~2.5A regulated adapter instead of
the standard 6V adapter. If you are using DS-16-8-5B model(s) in your installation,
note that each of those units will require its own adapter.
