How to Use This Guide

This manual is designed to help you use the ACL-8216. The manual

describes how to modify various settings on the ACL-8216 card to meet

your requirements. It is divided into six chapters:

•Chapter 1, "Introduction," gives an overview of the product features,

applications, and specifications.

•Chapter 2, "Installation," describes how to install the ACL-8216. The layout of

ACL-8216 is shown, the switch setting for base address, and jumper

setting for analog input channel configuration, reference voltage

setting, trigger source, interrupt level and DMA channel are specified.

The connectors' pin assignment and how to connect the outside

signal are described.

•Chapter 3, "Registers format," describes the details of register format and

structure of the ACL-8216, this information is very important for the

programmers who want to control the hardware by low-level

programming.

•Chapter 4, "Operation Theorem" describes how to operate the ACL-8216. The

A/D, D/A, DIO and timer/counter functions are introduced. Also, some

programming concepts are specified.

•Chapter 5, "C/C++ Library," describes the C++ Library for DOS environment.

•Chapter 6, "Calibration and utilities," describes how to calibrate the ACL-8216

for accurate measurement.

Introduction

The ACL-8216 series is designed to combine all the data acquisition

functions, such as A/D, D/A, DIO, and timer/counter in a single board,

The high-end specifications of the card makes it ideal for wide range

of applications requiring high resolution 16-bit data acquisition at

low cost. The Figure 1.1 shows the block diagram of the ACL-8216.

The ACL-8216 Series features 16 single-ended inputs or 8

differential inputsat up to 100 Khz, 2 channels multiplying 12-bit

double-buffered analog output, 16 digital inputs and 16 digital

outputs, and one timer/counter channel.
