You must configure the 268XA device before using it. The following sections
provide basic configuration information. Refer to the Users Manual for additional
configuration information.
Reviewing and Setting the Base Channel Number
Perform the procedure below to review or set the Base Channel Number (BCN).
The BCN identifies the device. The BCN is also the first two digits of the Global

example, a GCN of 27116 indicates device 27 and analog channel 116. (See Figure
1 for examples.)
• BCN Range The BCN can be any number from 01 to 99. If you plan to install
Fluke DAQ software for isolated network operation, each device on the
network must have a unique BCN.

reviewing the BCN; the SET annunciator displays when setting the BCN.
