Introduction

The Advantech PCIE-1760 is a 8-channel isolated digital input and 8-channel relay
output card for the PCI Express bus.
The PCIE-1760's isolated digital input channels are ideal for digital input in noisy
environments or with floating potentials.Each isolated digital input supports both dry
contact and wet contact, designated by jumper settings, so that it can easily interface
with other devices. PCIE-1760 relays can serve as ON/OFF control devices or small
power switches. For easy monitoring, each relay is equipped with one green LED to
reflect its ON/OFF status. Moreover, PCIE-1760 also offers counter input and PWM
input/output channels.
The following sections of this chapter will provide further information about features,
installation guide, together with some brief information on software and accessories
for the PCIE-1760 card.

The Advantech PCIE-1760 offers the following main features:
Robust Protection
The PCIE-1760 digital input channels feature robust isolation protection for industrial,
lab and machinery automation applications. It durably withstands voltage up to 2,500
V , preventing your host system from any incidental harm. If connected to an exter-
DC
nal input source with surge-protection, the PCIE-1760 can offer up to a maximum of
2,000 V ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection. Even with an input voltage rising
DC
up to 70 V , the PCIE-1760 can still manage to work properly, albeit only for a short
DC
period of time.
Plug-and-Play Function
The PCIE-1760 is a Plug-and-Play device, which fully complies with PCI Express
Specification Rev V1.0. During card installation, there is no need to set jumpers or
DIP switches. Instead, all bus-related configurations such as base I/O address and
interrupt are automatically done by the Plug-and-Play function.
