CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. General Description

The most common method of interfacing a microcomputer system, such as the

PC, is through the use of programmable digital input and output registers.

With digital output registers, the computer can write data into the registers,

treating the register as an I/O port. The output of these registers can then be

wired to an interface device, such as a relay. Thus, by writing data to an output

in turn, control, for example, the power to a motor.

Digital input registers are similar but are used to sample the status of signals

attached to their inputs. For example, if a program wants to determine if a

switch is open or closed, the switch can be tied to the input of a digital input

attached to individual bit locations. When read, the data results reflect the state

of the signals on the wires.

Designed with this idea in mind, the PCL-725 Relay Actuator & Isolated D/I

card is an IBM PC add-on card that offers you 8 relay actuators and 8 opto-

isolated digital inputs on a single board.

Typically, the 8 on-board relays can serve as ON/OFF control devices or small

power switches. The 8 opto-isolated D/I channels are ideal devices for

collecting digital inputs under noisy environment or floating potential. Also, the

8 isolated inputs provide the best method to prevent the ground loop problem.

For easy monitoring, each relay is equipped with one red LED to reflect its

ON/OFF status. Each input channel is jumper selectable to either isolated or

non-isolated input. Access to input and output channels is made possible

through a on-board 37-pin D type connector.

CHAPTER 2. INSTALLATION

2.1. Initial Inspection

Inside the shipping container, you should find this operating manual and the

PCL-725 card.

The PCL-725 was carefully inspected both mechanically and electrically before

shipment. It should be free of marks and scratches and in perfect electrical order

on receipt.

Remove the PCL-725 interface card from its protective packaging by grasping

the metal rear panel. Keep the anti-vibration package since it may be used to

return the card if it needs repair. The package may also be used if the card is

stored outside of the computer.

The board should be handled only by the edges. The integrated circuits on the

board can be damaged by static electric discharge.

2.2. Base Address Selection

Most of the peripheral devices and the interface adapters in the PC are

controlled and sensed using the digital input and output ports. These ports are

addressed using the I/O port address space of the 8088 or 80286 microcomputer.

The I/O port base address for the PCL-725 is selectable by an 8 position DIP

switch. Valid addresses are from hex 200 to hex 3FE. Refer to Figure 2.1 for the

location of the DIP switch (SW1).

PCL- 725 Installation

Figure 2.1 The PCL-725 Card

The required switch settings for various base addresses are illustrated as below :

Note : -ON = 0. OFF = 1

-"X" means "don't care"

-1..8 are switch positions

-A1..A8 correspond to address lines of the PC bus. A9 is

hard-wired to be 1.

-* means factory setting

2.3. Connector Pin Assignments

The PCL-725 card is equipped with a 37 pin D type connector accessible from

the rear plate. Please refer to Figure 2.1 for the location of the connector.

The following diagram below shows its pin assignments.

2.4. Jumpers

There are two jumpers associated with each digital input channel for

configuring the channel as either isolated or non-isolated.

The following show the D/I channels and their corresponding jumpers :
