RPC-150
The logic a t J2 port B, with the high c urre nt outputs
installed is just the reverse. A ' 1' at a line causes the
module to turn ON. The OPT O comm and sets the
output to the pr oper po larity wh en U13 is r eplaced w ith
a dip shunt jumper.
High cur rent outpu ts at J2 port B ar e optionally
configurable as TTL I/ O by replacing U13 with a DIP
shunt jump er. This will kee p the logic com patible with
ports A and C . If opto chan nels 0-6 are used as inputs,
then U13 must be replaced by a DIP shunt jumper.
Interfacing to switches and other devices
The STB-26 terminal board provides a convenient way
of interfacing switches or other digital I/O devices. Lines
at J2 and J3 are connected to the STB-26 with a CMA-26
ribbon cable. D igital devices are then connected to the
screw term inals on the STB-26.
Switches m ay be conne cted direc tly to a line. 10K pull-
up resistors on board set all inputs high, or 1. A switch
closure to ground at a line is read as a 0.
Configuring digital I/O lines
Lines are configured during progr am execution using the
CONF IG PIO command. On power up or reset, all lines
are inputs.
When a line is configured as an output, it can sink a
maximum of 2. 5 mA at 0. 4V and can source a minimum
of 2.5 ma at 2. 4V. W hen driving opto modules, the
outputs sink 15 mA at 1.0V.
Digital I/ O prog ramm ing exam ple
The follow ing exam ple read s a switch at po rt A, bit 3
(J2-25), reads an opto module at channel 1 and writes an
opto module at channel 5. A LE D is controlled at J2-10
(port B, bit 0).

Opto Channel is computed by adding 100 to the number
on the MPS rac k. The position number is preceded by
the letter 'M ' on the rack.
