Preface About this User's Guide What you will learn from this user's guide This user's guide explains how to install, configure, and use the PCI-DIO24 so that you get the most out of the digital I/O features. This user's guide also refers you to related documents available on our web site, and to technical support resources.
Chapter 1 Introducing the PCI-DIO24 This manual explains how to install, configure and use the PCI-DIO24 digital I/O board. The PCI-DIO24 provides 24 lines of digital I/O. An on-board, industry standard 82C55 programmable peripheral interface chip provides the 24 digital I/O lines in three eight-bit ports (Port A, Port B, and Port C). Port C can be further divided into two four-bit ports (Port C-HI and Port C-LO).
