PCI-DAS6034 & PCI-DAS6035 User's Guide
1.1
General Description
This manual describes the PCI-DAS6035 and the PCI-DAS6034. The two versions differ only
in that the PCI-DAS6035 has two digital-to-analog outputs, and the PCI-DAS6034 has none.
Both versions provide up to sixteen analog inputs. Each input can be individually configured
as single-ended or differential. The analog inputs have 16-bit resolution.
The input ranges of the boards are bipolar-only. They have four ranges of ±10V, ±5V,
±500mV, and ±50mV. The ranges are software-selectable.
The PCI-DAS6035/6034 provides nine, user-configurable trigger/clock/gate pins. They are
available at the 100-pin I/O connector. Six are configurable as inputs and three are
configurable as outputs. Refer to Chapters 4 and 6 (Specifications) for more information.
The PCI-DAS6035/6034 provides inter-board triggering and synchronization capability.
There are five trigger/strobes and a synchronizing clock provided on a 14-pin header. See the
Installation and Specification chapters for more information on these signals.
Interrupts can be generated by up to seven ADC sources and four DAC sources. These
interrupt sources are listed in the Specification chapter.
Both board versions contain an 82C54 counter chip, which consists of three sixteen-bit
counters. Clock, gate, and output signals from two of the three counters are available on the
100-pin I/O connector. The third counter is used internally.

Software
All PCI-DAS6035/6034 boards ship with the InstaCal
a complete installation, calibration and test program for data acquisition and control boards.
Complete with extensive error checking, InstaCal guides you through installation and setup of
your data acquisition board and creates the board configuration file for use by your program
or application software package. Installation of InstaCal is described in the Software
Installation Manual (available on our web site at
installation.pdf.).
The optional Universal Library
Universal Library is a complete set of I/O libraries and drivers for all MCC boards, and for all
Windows-based languages. When using the Universal Library, you can switch boards or even
programming languages and the syntax remains constant.
