LabJack T8 Data Acquisition Module
New LABJACK T8 Multifunction DAQ with 8 Isolated Analog Inputs, 2 Analog Out, 20 x Digital I/O, Ethernet (POE) and USB
Labjack Data Acquisition Equipment is trusted by companies around the world including SpaceX, Google, NASA, Apple, nVIDIA, CERN and Tesla
The LabJack T8 is our 2022 new flagship device, capable of collecting signals from virtually any kind of sensor. With instrumentation amplified inputs, software selectable gain settings, many digital I/O features, and a Modbus TCP front-end, the T8 is our most versatile multifunction DAQ platform. Common applications include sampling large industrial signals requiring electrical isolation and/or precision timing including EV battery testing, industrial control and monitoring, automated testing, and prototype development. Additionally, T8 devices are capable of stand-alone operation by running Lua scripts and include 5x more space for Lua scripts than other T-Series devices.
