CHAPTER 2 2 Installation This chapter provides a packaged item checklist, proper instructions for unpacking and step-by-step procedures for both driver and card installation.
Chapter 2 Installation 2.1 Unpacking After receiving your PCIE-1756 package, please inspect its contents first. The package should contain the following items: • PCIE-1756 DA&C Card • StartUp or User Manual • Companion DVD-ROM with DAQNavi drivers included. The PCIE-1756cards harbor certain electronic components vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can easily damage the integrated circuits and certain components if preventive measures are ignored.
2.2 Driver Installation We recommend you install the driver before you install the PCIE-1756 card into your system, since this will guarantee a smooth installation process. The Advantech DAQNavi Device Drivers Setup program for the PCIE1756 card is included in the companion DVD-ROM that is shipped with your DA&C card package. Please follow the steps below to install the driver software: 1. Insert the companion DVD-ROM into your DVD-ROM drive. 2.
5. Select the PCIE series and the specific device then follow the installation instructions step by step to complete your device driver installation and setup. 6. Back and select the DAQNavi SDK to install the Advantech Navigator. Figure 2.
2.3 Hardware Installation Note: Make sure you have installed the driver before you install the card (please refer to chapter 2.2 Driver Installation) After the Device Drivers installation is completed you can install the PCIE-1756 card into any PCI Express slot on your computer. However, it is suggested that you refer to the computer’s user manual or related documentation if you have any doubts. Please follow the steps below to install the card onto your system. 1.
2.4 Device Setup & Configuration The Advantech Navigator program is a utility that allows you to setup, configure and test your device, and later stores your settings on the system registry. These settings will be used when you call the APIs of DAQNavi device drivers. It also provides the programming reference, user guides and video tutorials. Setting Up the Device 1.
Configuring the Device 3. Please go to the Digital Input/Output page to configure your device. Here you can set the DI interrupt trigger edge, enable/disable the Channel-Freeze function and also the DO ports initial status of PCIE-1756. Figure 2.
4. After your card is properly installed and configured, you can go to the Device Test page to test your hardware by using the testing utility supplied. Figure 2.5: The Device Testing of PCIE-1756 For more detailed information, please refer to the DAQNavi SDK Manual or the User Interface Manual in the Advantech Navigator.
CHAPTER 3 2 Signal Connections This chapter provides useful information about how to connect input and output signals to the PCIE-1756 cards via the I/O connector.
Chapter 3 Signal Connections 3.1 Overview Maintaining signal connections is one of the most important factors in ensuring that your application system is sending and receiving data correctly. A good signal connection can avoid unnecessary and costly damage to your PC and other hardware devices. This chapter provides useful information about how to connect input and output signals to the PCIE1756 cards via the I/O connector. 3.2 Switch and Jumper Settings Please refer to Figure 3.
3.2.1 Board ID (SW1) The PCIE-1756 have a built-in DIP switch (SW1), which is used to define each card’s board ID. When there are multiple cards on the same chassis, this board ID switch is useful for identifying each card’s device number. After setting for each PCIE-1756, you can identify each card in system with different device numbers. The default value of board ID is 0 and if you need to adjust it to other value, please set the SW1 by referring to Table 3.1. Table 3.
3.2.2 Power On Configuration(JP1) Default configuration after power on, and hardware reset is to set all the isolated output channels to open status (the current of the load can’t be sink) so that the external devices will not be damaged when the system starts or resets. When the system is hot reset, then the status of isolated digital output channels are selected by jumper JP1. Table 3.2 shows the configuration of jumper JP1. Table 3.
3.3 Signal Connections Pin Assignment The I/O connector on the PCIE-1756 is a 100-pin connector that enable you to connect to accessories with the PCL-10250 or PCL-101100M shielded cable. Figure 3.2 shows the pin assignments for the 100-pin I/O connector on the PCIE-1756, and Table 3.4 shows its I/O connector signal description. Figure 3.
*Note: The PCL-10250 shielded cable is especially designed for the PCIE-1756 to reduce noise in the signal lines. Please refer to Appendix C for the pin assignment of connecting PCL-10250 and ADAM-3951. 3.3.1 I/O Connector Pin Definition Table 3.
3.3.2 Isolated Digital Input Each of isolated digital input channels accepts bi-directional 10 ~ 30 VDC voltage inputs. Meaning that you can apply positive or negative voltage to an isolated input pin (VIN). Every 16 input channels share one common pin. Figure 3.3 shows how to connect an external input source to one of the card’s isolated input channels. Figure 3.
3.3.3 Isolated Digital Output Each of isolated output channels comes equipped with a MOSFET, polyswitch (for current protection) and flywheel diode for using with inductive loads which can be activated by connecting PCOM to VDC. If an external voltage (5 ~ 40 VDC) is applied to an isolated output channel, the current will flow from the external voltage source to the card. Please note that the current through each IDO channel should not exceed 500 mA. Figure 3.
3.3.4 Channel-Freeze Function The PCIE-1756 provides a digital input channel (CH_FRZ_IN) to enable the channel-freeze function. The channel-freeze function acts when the pin CH_FRZ_IN is activated. Moreover, you can setup the input mode of channel-freeze function input channel CH_FRZ_IN as dry contact input mode or wet contact input mode selected by on-board jumper JP2. The wiring in wet contact and dry contact input mode are shown in Figures 3.4 and 3.5. Figure 3.
3.4 Field Wiring Considerations When you use PCIE-1756 cards to acquire data from outside, noises in the environment might significantly affect the accuracy of your measurements if due cautions are not taken. The following measures will be helpful to reduce possible interference running signal wires between signal sources and the PCIE-1756 card.
