This product has passed the CE test for environmental specifications when shielded cables are used for external wiring. We recommend the use of shielded cables. This kind of cable is available from Advantech. Please contact your local supplier for ordering information.
BoardID Switch The PCI-1723 has a built-in DIP switch that helps define each card’s ID when multi- ple PCI-1723 cards have been installed on the same PC chassis. The BoardID set- ting function is very useful when building a system with multiple PCI-1723 cards. With the correct BoardID settings, you can easily identify and access each card during hardware configuration and software programming.

This chapter provides useful information about how to connect input and output signals to the PCI-1723 via the I/O connector. Switch and Jumper Settings Please refer to Figure 3.1 for jumper and switch locations on PCI-1723. Figure 3.1 Connector and Switch Location PCI-1723 User Manual...
3.2.1 Board ID (SW1) The PCI-1723 has a built-in DIP switch (SW1), which is used to define each card’s board ID. When there are multiple cards on the same chassis, this board ID switch is used to set each card’s device number.
Signal Connections Pin Assignments The I/O connector on the PCI-1723 is a 68-pin connector that enables you to connect to accessories with the PCL-10168 shielded cable. Figure 3.2 shows the pin assignments for the 68-pin I/O connector on the PCI-1723, and Table 3.3 shows its I/O connector signal description.
3.3.2 Analog Output Connections The PCI-1723 provides 8 channels of analog output (AO) signal generation with out- put ranges of ±10 V, 0 ~ 20 mA, and 4 ~ 20 mA. The output range of each channel can be configured independently by using dedicated pins or jumper.
