Introducing the PCIe-DIO24 Chapter 1 Overview: PCIe-DIO24 features This manual explains how to install and use the PCIe-DIO24 board. The PCIe-DIO24 is a digital I/O board designed for the PCI Express (PCIe) bus. The PCIe-DIO24 provides 24 lines of digital I/O with selectable 3.3 V and 5 V logic levels. The 24 DIO lines are organized into three groups of 8-bits each (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).

Chapter 2 Installing the PCIe-DIO24 What comes with your shipment? The following items are shipped with the PCIe-DIO24: Hardware PCIe-DIO24 Software MCC DAQ CD Documentation MCC DAQ Quick Start This booklet provides an overview of the MCC DAQ software you received with the device, and includes information about installing the software. Please read this booklet completely before installing any software or hardware.
PCIe-DIO24 User's Guide Installing the PCIe-DIO24 Installing the hardware The PCIe-DIO24 is completely plug-and-play. Configuration is controlled by your system's BIOS. To install your board, follow the steps below. Install the MCC DAQ software before you install your board The driver needed to run your board is installed with the MCC DAQ software. Therefore, you need to install the MCC DAQ software before you install your board. Refer to the Quick Start Guide for instructions on installing the software.

Chapter 3 Functional Details 82C55 emulation The PCIe-DIO24 emulates the 82C55 Programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI) chip. Measurement Computing's Universal Library and Windows driver supports mode 0 only. Whenever the board is powered on or reset, all pins are set to high-impedance input. Based on standard TTL functionality, these inputs typically float high, and may have enough drive current to turn on external devices.
