Introduction
The PIO-24.LPCI, part number 8018, digital I/O interface provides 24 channels of
buffered drive digital I/O emulating 8255 mode zero. The PIO-24.LPCI can be
utilized for a variety of control and automation applications including control and
monitoring of TTL devices (e.g. LEDs, small solenoids, small relays) and
interfacing to solid-state relay racks (SSRs) for high-power AC or DC loads.
The PIO-24.LPCI’s 24 digital I/O channels are accessed via two 26-pin header
connectors that are brought out to a single 50-pin IDC connector with the included
CA315 ribbon cable. The headers provide 24 bits of digital I/O divided into three
eight-bit groups. Each eight-bit group may be individually configured via software
command as input or output to best match your particular application requirements.
The PIO-24.LPCI is designed to be used with a variety of Operating Systems
including Windows 98/NT/ME/2000/XP, Linux and DOS. The SeaI/O API
(Application Programmer Interface) included on CD with the PIO-24.LPCI provides
a variety of useful high-level function calls implemented as a Windows dynamic
link library (DLL) and as a Linux kernel module and library. In addition to the API,
SeaI/O includes sample code and utilities to simplify software development.
The RoHS compliant version of the PIO-24.LPCI, part number 8018-RoHS, meets
the RoHS (2002/95/EC) and WEEE (2002/96/EC) directives.
