General Description
The Data Acquisition and Control Interface (DACI) is a versatile USB peripheral enclosed in a half-size EMS
module. The DACI is intended to be used with the LVDAC-EMS software. Together, the DACI and LVDAC-EMS
provide a complete set of modern computer-based instruments to measure, observe, analyze, and control
electrical and mechanical parameters. The provided instruments include voltmeters, ammeters, power meters,
frequency meters, efficiency meters, impedance meters, power factor meters, energy meters, torque and speed
meters, an oscilloscope, a phasor analyzer, a harmonic analyzer, and a spectrum analyzer. The DACI and LVDAC-
EMS also allow manual and timed data recording. The recorded data can be saved to files in any specified
location, graphically represented with the provided graph plotting tool, and exported into a spreadsheet
application.
The DACI and LVDAC-EMS can also be used with the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply, Model 8960,
to implement a variety of control functions for advanced training in various fields of electricity and new energy,
including electric power technology, ac/dc rotating machines, renewable energy, transmission lines, and power
electronics.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series
The DACI performs data acquisition to feed raw signal data to the LVDAC-EMS computer based instruments, and
it performs various types of control functions, mainly to control the electronic switches of the IGBT Chopper/
Inverter module, Model 8837, or those of the Power Thyristors module, Model 8841.
To activate data acquisition for a specific computer-based instrumentation function, a license for this function
must be ordered for each DACI on which the function is to be used. Similarly, to activate a specific control
function, a license for this function must be ordered for each DACI on which the function is to be used.
The firmware (program used to run the microcontroller) of the DACI can be upgraded anytime by using the
device firmware upgrade (DFU) included with the latest version of LVDAC-EMS available on the Festo Didactic
website.
The DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software are standard features in the Electric Power Technology Training Systems,
Series 8010, and in the Computer-Assisted 0.2 kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006.
The DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software can also be excellent add-ons to several other training systems, such as:
Note: each DACI, Model 9063-0X, must be ordered with at least one function license (e.g., the Computer-Based
Instrumentation Function Set, Model 9069-1) unless it is an extension module to another Model 9063-xx which
has a control function that needs an extension module (like the Three-Phase PWM Rectifier/Inverter Control
Function Set, Model 9069-5, or the High-Voltage DC Transmission System Control Function, Model 9069-7).

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series
Model Variants
The DACI is available in several model variants. Each variant has a unique combination of functions pre-
activated in its hardware. The available model variants are listed in the following table. Other model variants will
be added to the table as they become available.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series
DACIs with a specific combination of pre-activated functions other than those listed above can also be ordered.
To order a customized DACI, request DACI Model 9063-0 (DACI with no functions pre-activated) and state each
function (Model 9069-X) you wish to be pre-activated.
It is important to know that LVDAC-EMS can accept more than one Data Acquisition and Control interface
connected through USB on a single computer. When connected to the same computer, two DACIs will share their
control functions. It means, for instance, that in the High-Voltage DC Transmission System application which
requires two DACIs to control two separate Power Thyristors modules, Model 8841-2, you would only need one
DACI that has the High-Voltage DC (HVDC) Transmission System Control Function Set, Model 9069-7, activated.
Then, any other DACI connected to the same computer will be able to use the shared control function as well.
LVDAC-EMS Software
The LVDAC-EMS software is a freeware which can be downloaded anytime from the Festo Didactic website
(www.labvolt.com). The LVDAC-EMS software is a user-friendly tool that facilitates the use of the various
functions which can be implemented with USB peripherals such as the Data Acquisition and Control Interface
(DACI), Model 9063, and the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer / Power Supply, Model 8960-2.
The LVDAC-EMS software also includes a firmware update for the DACI. When a DACI is connected to a newer
version of LVDAC-EMS, the user can easily update the module using a simple update wizard.

LVDAC-EMS Functions
The functions that are currently available for the DACI, Model 9063, are described below. All functions can be
activated in any DACI by purchasing a license for that specific function and then performing the upgrade
procedure on the DACI. New functions will be added to this datasheet as they become available.
Instrumentation Functions
The instrumentation functions of LVDAC-EMS replace a multitude of actual data acquisition devices (e.g.,
voltmeters, ammeters, oscilloscopes, synchroscopes) with a series of computer-based instruments that display
the data measured by the DACI. The instrumentation functions currently available in LVDAC-EMS are described
below.

• Data Table and Graph
• Oscilloscope
• Phasor Analyzer

Data Acquisition and Control Interface
579677 (9063-00)
The Data Acquisition and Control Interface (DACI) is a versatile
USB peripheral used for measuring, observing, analyzing, and
controlling electrical and mechanical parameters in electric
power systems and power electronics circuits. For these
purposes, a set of computer-based instruments as well as a
variety of control functions are available for the DACI. These
instruments and control functions are accessed through the
LVDAC-EMS software. The LVDAC-EMS software, as well as all
available upgrades, is free and can be downloaded anytime on
the Festo Didactic website.
Together, the DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software allow training in various areas such as electric power
technology, ac/dc machines, renewable energy, transmission lines, and power electronics using modern and
versatile measuring instruments and control functions. LVDAC-EMS also offers the possibility to use pre-built
SCADA interfaces for several applications to ease the view and understanding of the process taking place. The
user guide provided allows students to quickly become familiar with the instruments and control functions
available.
Model 9063-0 includes only the DACI, Model 9063, with no control function set activated. This enables the user
to customize the DACI by individually picking the computer-based instruments and control function sets that he
wants to activate in the DACI.
Alternately, variant 9063-0 is also used in several courses as an extension module. This means that it is used in
conjunction to another DACI in which particular control function sets are activated. Both DACIs are connected to
a single computer running LVDAC-EMS. When used in such a way, variant 9063-0 shares all control function sets
activated in the other DACI. For example, if the Computer-Based Instrumentation Function, Model 9069-1, and
the Three-Phase PWM Rectifier/Inverter Control Function Set, Model 9069-5, are activated in the other DACI,
these function sets will also be available in variant 9063-0. This enables the user to perform courses requiring
the use of more than one DACI without having to activate the same control function sets in all DACIs.

LVDAC-EMS
The LVDAC-EMS software is a freeware which can be downloaded anytime from the Festo Didactic website
(www.labvolt.com). The LVDAC-EMS software is a user-friendly tool that facilitates the use of the various
functions which can be implemented with USB peripherals such as the Data Acquisition and Control Interface
(DACI), LabVolt Series 9063, and the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer / Power Supply, LabVolt Series 8960.
The LVDAC-EMS software also includes a firmware update for the DACI. When a DACI is connected to a newer
version of LVDAC-EMS, the user can easily update the module using a simple update wizard.
LVDAC-EMS Functions
The functions that are currently available for the DACI, Model 9063, are described below. All functions can be
activated in any DACI by purchasing a license for that specific function and then performing the upgrade
procedure on the DACI. New functions will be added to this datasheet as they become available.
Instrumentation Functions
The instrumentation functions of LVDAC-EMS replace a multitude of actual data acquisition devices (e.g.,
voltmeters, ammeters, oscilloscopes, synchroscopes) with a series of computer-based instruments that display
the data measured by the DACI.
• Monitor and control several workstations from one (or more) supervisory computer(s)
• Use OPC server protocol to communicate between the different workstations
• Include your own pictures and schematics
• Introduce SCADA in existing EMS laboratories
