Flexible Digital Output Function
PCIE-1884 also features four digital output channels. Each channel accepts digital
output either as normal TTL output for a rotary encoder or as indicated output with
pulse/level mode for a linear encoder. The PCIE-1884 can generate an indicated out-
put based on a signal from compare of its counters. The pulse width of an indicated
output depends on the counter clock or clear interrupt.
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. With the
correct BoardID settings, users can easily identify and access each card during hard-
ware configuration and software programming operations.
