2W per package (8 bits). An optional on-board power inverter ensures complete isolation of the open collector output devices from the PC power supply, making the board suitable for driving lamps, stepper motors, relays and solenoids etc. Blue Chip Technology Ltd. 01270175.doc Page 1...
IC and fit a 74LS244. If you have any difficulty in obtaining this device please contact Blue Chip Technology. Alternatively, specify the power up mode you require the next time you order your DOP-24 from us. Page 2 01270175.doc...
This product meets the requirements of the European EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) and is eligible to bear the CE mark. It has been assessed operating in a Blue Chip Technology Icon industrial PC. However, because the board can be installed in a variety of computers, certain conditions have to be applied to ensure that the compatibility is maintained.
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. EMC Specification A Blue Chip Technology Icon industrial PC fitted with this card meets the following specification: Emissions: EN 55022:1995...

User Adjustments Port Map The DOP-24 board provides three 8 bit ports. Each bit can be independently driven via software to generate the required output. The card occupies four 8 bit ports although only three are used as shown below.
49 and 50 are the common ground and positive connections respectively. It is company policy to call the even numbered pins positive and the negative on the DOP-24 to conform with the other cards in the range.

Page 13 OPERATING GUIDE Using the Device A total of 24 opto-isolated outputs may be driven by the DOP-24 board. These appear as three 8 bit ports. Each signal is connected to one bit within one of these ports i.e.
The state of the output lines may be modified by using either of the following methods :- Microsoft BASIC A or GW BASIC. OUT P,D Outputs the byte D to Port P. 8088/8086 Assembly language. PORT EQU 0300H PUTDAT: DX, PORT AX,DATA DX,AL Page 14 01270175.doc Blue Chip Technology Ltd.
GW BASIC interpreter and is intended to output a count of 0 to 255 to the outputs of the three DOP-24 ports on and off individually. This enables the user to see the output channels as they are activated.
Page 16 Commercial Data Acquisition Packages COMMERCIAL DATA ACQUISITION PACKAGES The Blue Chip Technology DOP-24 can be used with almost any data acquisition or control package that can write information directly to a PC output port. Use of the DOP-24 Board with ASYST The board has been tested with and is installable as an IO.PORT digital device...
