Chapter Introduction This chapter provides a brief introduction to the PCIE-1884 card and its typical applications. Features Applications Packing List Software Overview Roadmap Accessories...
PCIE-1884 is a PCI Express card that features four 32-bit encoder counters with pro- grammable trigger output (preloaded FIFO) for position comparisons. Ideal for motor control and position monitoring applications, PCIE-1884 also provides general coun- ter functions, such as frequency measurement, pulse width measurement, pulse out- put, and PWM output.
BoardID Switch The PCIE-1884 card is equipped with a built-in DIP switch for defining each card’s ID when multiple cards are installed on the same PC chassis. The BoardID setting func- tion is very useful when building a system with multiple PCIE-1884 cards.
Software Overview Advantech offers a comprehensive bundle of DLL drivers, third-party drivers, and application software to assist users with leveraging the full benefits of the PCIE-1884 card. Device drivers LabVIEW driver Advantech DAQNavi software Datalogger Programming Choices for Encoder Cards Advantech’s application software, such as Advantech Device Drivers, can be used...
To troubleshoot the driver error, check the error code and description against the error control information provided in the DAQNavi SDK manual. Accessories Advantech offers a wide range of accessories for the PCIE-1884 card, as listed below. Wiring Cables ...
Unpacking Instructions After receiving the PCIE-1884 product shipment, inspect the package to ensure that you have received the following: 1 x PCIE-1884 card 1 x PCIE-1884 startup manual The PCIE-1884 card contains certain electronic components that are vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Hardware Installation After the device driver has been installed, the PCIE-1884 card can be installed in the computer. The steps for installing the card are outlined below. Please refer to the computer’s user manual or related documentation for additional installation advice.
API is accessed. Setting Up a Device To install the I/O device for your card, run the Advantech Navigator program (by accessing Start/Programs/Advantech Automation/Navigator for DN4). The device(s) already installed on the system (if any) will be shown in the Installed Devices list.
Configuring the Device Navigate to the Device Settings page to configure the PCIE-1884 card. Users can configure not only the counter/PWM output, but also the Digital Input/Out- put. Figure 2.2 Device Settings Page After the card is installed and configured, navigate to the Device Test page to test the hardware using the testing utility supplied.
Chapter Signal Connections This chapter explains how to con- nect input and output signals to the PCIE-1884 card via the I/O connector. Overview Board ID Settings Signal Connections Field Wiring Considerations...
This chapter provides useful information about how to connect input and output signals to the PCIE-1884 card via the I/O connector. Switch and Jumper Settings The location of jumpers and switches on the PCIE-1884 card is shown in Figure 3.1. Figure 3.1 Connector and Switch Locations PCIE-1884 User Manual...
3.2.1 Board ID (SW1) The PCIE-1884 card features a built-in DIP switch (SW1) that is used to define each card’s board ID. When multiple cards are installed on the same chassis, the board ID switch is used to set each card’s device number.
Signal Connections Pin Assignments The I/O connector on the PCIE-1884 card is a 37-pin connector that enables users to integrate additional accessories via the PCL-10137H shielded cable. The pin assignments for the 37-pin I/O connector on the PCIE-1884 card are shown in Figure 3.2.

Field Wiring Considerations When using PCIE-1884 cards to acquire data in an outdoor environment, general environmental noise can significantly affect the accuracy of measurements if due cautions are not taken. The following measures can reduce possible interference to signal wires running between signal sources and the PCIE-1884 card.
Opto-Isolator Response Time 100ns VIH (max.) 50 V Input Voltage VIH (min.) VIL (max.) Digital Output Channels 4 (shared with CNTn_OUT pins) 2500 V Optical Isolation Response Time 100 ns Supply Voltage 5V/TTL level Sink/Source Current 24 mA max./channel PCIE-1884 User Manual...
Digital Input/Output Operation The PCIE-1884 card supports 32 digital I/O channels. Each byte can be used as either an input port or an output port by configuring the corresponding parameter. All four channels of the byte have the same configuration.

Pulse Width Measurement Connection The PCIE-1884’s built-in counter can measure the pulse width value of the sig- nal connected to the counter input. The measurable range is 50 ns to 107 sec- onds. Both the logic high time and logic low time can be measured within the measurable range.
Page 34
PWM Output PCIE-1884 can generate PWM (pulse width modulation) signals. Users can configure the logic high time and logic low time as shown in the figure below. The available period for logic high time and logic low time is 100 ns ~ 214 sec- onds.
