Preface About this User’s Guide What you will learn from this user's guide This user's guide describes the Measurement Computing CIO-DIO96 data acquisition board and lists device specifications. Conventions in this user's guide For more information Text presented in a box signifies additional information related to the subject matter.
All signals pass through a 50-pin connector. Software features For information on the features of InstaCal and the other software included with your CIO-DIO96, refer to the Quick Start Guide that shipped with your device. The Quick Start Guide is also available in PDF at www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/DAQ-Software-Quick-Start.pdf.
In addition to this hardware user's guide, you should also receive the Quick Start Guide (available in PDF at www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/DAQ-Software-Quick-Start.pdf). This booklet supplies a brief description of the software you received with your CIO-DIO96 and information regarding installation of that software. Please read this booklet completely before installing any software or hardware.
The base address is the starting location that software writes to when communicating with the CIO-DIO96. A set of DIP switches is used to set the base address. By placing the switch down, the CIO-DIO96 address decode logic is instructed to respond to that address bit. A complete address is constructed by calculating the HEX or decimal number which corresponds to all the address bits the board has been instructed to respond to.
Wait state jumper The CIO-DIO96 board has a wait state jumper which you can set to enable an on-board wait state generator. A wait state is an extra delay injected into the processor's clock via the bus. This delay slows down the processor when the processor addresses the CIO-DIO96 board, so that signals from slow devices (chips) are valid.
CIO-DIO96 User's Guide Installing the CIO-DIO96 Installing the CIO-DIO96 After you configure the base address, you can install the CIO-DIO96 into your computer. Follow the steps below. Install the MCC DAQ software before you install your board The driver needed to run your board is installed with the MCC DAQ software. Therefore, you need to install the MCC DAQ software before you install your board.
CIO-DIO96 User's Guide Installing the CIO-DIO96 Pinout – main I/O connectors The CIO-DIO96 connector has two standard 50-pin header connectors (P1 and P2) that are accessible through the PC/AT expansion bracket. Connect FIRSTPORT and SECONDPORT signals to connector P1. Connect THIRDPORT and FOURTHPORT signals to connector P2.
Installing the CIO-DIO96 Field wiring, signal termination, and conditioning You can use the following cabling, screw termination, and signal conditioning products with the CIO-DIO96. CIO-TERM100 – 100-pin screw terminal board (daisy-chained 50-pin IDC connectors CIO-SPADE50 – 16" X 4" termination panel which mates with both 37-pin and 50-pin connectors.
Signal level control The digital I/O bits on the CIO-DIO96 are 8255 CMOS TTL. The 82C55 digital I/O chip initializes all ports as inputs on power- up and reset. A TTL input is a high impedance input. If you connect another TTL input device to the 82C55 it could be turned ON or OFF every time the 82C55 is reset.
24-bits of digital I/O. You can configure the CIO-ERB24 relay output board and SSR-RACK24 I/O module rack in a daisy chain configuration to use all of the digital I/O bits provided by the CIO-DIO96 board. An example of this configuration scheme is shown below.
