Table 3.2: I/O Connector Signal Descriptions TRG_GATE DGND Input A/D External Trigger Gate. When TRG _GATE is connected to +5 V, it will enable the external trigger signal to input. When TRG _GATE is connected to DGND, it will disable the external trigger signal to input. - Page 31 Differential Channel Connections Differential input connections use two signal wires per channel. The card measures only the voltage difference between these two wires, the HI wire and the LOW wire. If the signal source has no connection to ground, it is called a "floating" source. A connection must exist between LOW and ground to define a common reference point for floating signal sources.

You can use the internal precision -5 V or -10 V reference to generate 0 to +5 V or 0 to +10 V D/A output. Use an external reference for other D/A output ranges.

Page 46: Appendix C Calibration
2. Everytime the analog output range is changed. We provide the Advantech Device Manager on the companion CD-ROM to assist you with D/A and A/D calibration. The Advantech Device Man- ager makes calibration easy. With a variety of prompts and graphic dis- plays, these programs will lead you through the calibration and setup procedures, showing you all the correct settings and adjustments. - Page 47 C.1 VR Assignment The five variable resistors (VRs) on the PCI-1710U/HGU/UL board help you make accurate adjustment on all A/D and D/A channels. See the fig- ure in Appendix C for help finding the VRs. The following list shows the function of each VR: Function A/D unipolar offset...
- Page 48 Using a precision voltmeter to calibrate the A/D outputs is recommended. Regular and accurate calibration ensures maximum possible accuracy. The A/D calibration tool in the Advantech Device Manager leads you through the whole A/D offset and gain adjustment procedure. The basic steps are outlined below: In the Advantech Device Manager, set analog input channel AI0 as single-ended, bipolar, range ±5 V, and set AI1 as single-ended, uni-...
