To set a channel to a particular range, read the switch positions as UP or DN (down) from left to right in the
row beside the range you want to set. The switch shown in Fi

is configured for ±5V range (switch

settings UP>DN>DN>UP>DN>DN).

Installing the CIO-DDA06

After you configure the board's switches and jumpers, you can install the CIO-DDA06 into your computer. To
