ISA or EISA slot. Addressing, data and control signals are TTL compatible. The DIO-32B is simple to operate. By writing instruction bytes to the I/O port addresses, the reed relays are energized or de-energized. Inputs are just as simply read from their data ports.
Card Setup Card Setup The DIO-32B contains several jumper straps for each port which must be set for proper operation. Address Selection The DIO-32B occupies 4 consecutive I/O locations. The DIP-switch (SW1) is used to set the base address for these locations. Be careful when selecting the base address as some selections conflict with existing PC ports.
Other inputs can be ‘wire OR ed.’ to also generate interrupts if desired. Please consult the factory for more information. 2/9 3 4 5 6 7 Figure 3 - IRQ Header E2 Sealevel Systems DIO-32B Page 3...
3. Locate an two available slots and remove the blank metal slot covers. 4. Gently insert the DIO-32B into the slot. Make sure the adapter is seated properly. Insert the cable bracket into the adjacent slot and screw in place.
Technical Description Technical Description The DIO-32B provides four parallel input/output (I/O) ports. The ports are organized as ports A, B, C, and D. Port A and B are input ports interfaced to optically-isolated inputs, while ports C and D are reed relay output ports.

The input circuits are not intended for monitoring 120 volt AC circuits. In addition to being too high a voltage for the circuits, it is dangerous to have that high a voltage on the card. Sealevel Systems DIO-32B Page 6...
) input port of the device will be utilized. In all addressing modes, port numbers are zero-indexed; that is, the first port is port #0, the second port is #1, the third #2, and so on. Sealevel Systems DIO-32B Page 9...

1. Identify all I/O adapters currently installed in your system. This includes your on-board serial ports, controller cards, sound cards etc. 2. Configure your Sealevel Systems adapter so that there is no conflict with currently installed adapters. No two adapters can occupy the same I/O address.
If possible, please have the adapter installed in a computer ready to run diagnostics. 3. Sealevel Systems maintains a forum on CompuServe which is accessed by typing ‘GO Sealevel’ at the command prompt. 4. Technical support is available Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
