Measurement Computing Daq PC-Card - Manual (Page 16)

1-8 DaqBoard [ISA Type] Quick Start Guide 01-11-00 457-0942, rev 1.2
JP7 – Calibration Leave JP7 in default position. Only use JP7 during calibration. See user’s manual.
JP8 – DMA and Interrupt
Interrupt Selection. DaqBoard may be set to interrupt the PC when certain hardware conditions occur. The interrupt may
be set to IRQ level 10, 11, 12, 14 or 15. DaqBoard’s IRQ level cannot be shared with another device. To disable interrupt
assistance and background transfers you can configure JP8 to “Open Interrupt” (see following figure).
DMA Selection. Direct Memory Access (DMA) configuration provides for:
(a) high-speed data transfer from the ADC FIFO, or
(b) high-speed data transfer to the DAC FIFO.
Only DMA channels 5-7 (of an ISA AT machine’s seven channels) are available to DaqBoard.
Set DRQ and DACK jumpers to the desired DMA channels. Note that DaqBoard does not share DMA channels.
Set the DMA jumpers to OPEN when other devices will be using DMA channels 5, 6 and 7.
SW1 - Base Address
SW1’s factory default is 300 Hex. If 300 Hex presents an address conflict, set a new SW1 address within the range of
1FF to 3FF (256 to 1023 Decimal). Note that the address must be on a 4-byte boundary.
(2) Make Board Connections
Before connecting your DaqBoard, you should review the following connector descriptions.
P1 Analog I/O. Provides 16 analog input channels, 2 analog output channels, a 16-bit counter/timer, 4 TTL inputs and
outputs, and various signals for driving expansion cards.
P2 Digital I/O. Provides three 8-bit TTL programmable I/O ports and external interrupt input. To ensure reliable
operation, for P2 expansion cables do not exceed 14 inches per attached DBK card.
P3 Frequency I/O. Provides five 16-bit counters and 16 high-speed digital inputs and external interrupt input.

Notes:
(1) SW1’s address must be unique, i.e., not used by another device.
(2) I/O addresses, hex 000 to 0FF, are reserved for system board I/O.
(3) Hex 100 to 3FF are available on the I/O channel.
(4) Although the above table represents industry standards, some systems may vary.
