Chapter 1

Introducing the CIO-DIO96

Overview: CIO-DIO96 features

The CIO-DIO96 is a 96-bit digital I/O board with four 82C55 parallel-interface chips. The board provides the

96 bits in 24-bit groups based on the 82C55 specification.

Each 82C55 chip controls 24 CMOS/TTL-compatible digital I/O pins. Each 24-bit group is divided into three

eight-bit ports, or two 8-bit ports and two 4-bit ports. Each port is programmable for input or output.

All I/O bits are set to input mode (high impedance) on power up and reset. Locations are available for installing

pull-up or pull-down resistors.

All signals pass through a 50-pin connector.

Software features

For information on the features of InstaCal and the other software included with your CIO-DIO96, refer to the

Quick Start Guide that shipped with your device. The Quick Start Guide is also available in PDF at

www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/DAQ-Software-Quick-Start.pdf.

Check www.mccdaq.com/download.htm for the latest software version.

Unpacking the CIO-DIO96

As with any electronic device, you should take care while handling to avoid damage from static

electricity. Before removing the CIO-DIO96 from its packaging, ground yourself using a wrist strap or by

simply touching the computer chassis or other grounded object to eliminate any stored static charge.

If any components are missing or damaged, notify Measurement Computing Corporation immediately by

phone, fax, or e-mail:

Phone: 508-946-5100 and follow the instructions for reaching Tech Support.

Fax: 508-946-9500 to the attention of Tech Support

Email: techsupport@mccdaq.com

Installing the software

Refer to the Quick Start Guide for instructions on installing the software on the Measurement Computing Data

Acquisition Software CD. This booklet is available in PDF at www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/DAQ-Software-

Quick-Start.pdf.

Configuring the base address switch

The CIO-DIO96 employs the PC bus for power, communications and data transfer. As such, it draws power

from the PC, monitors the address lines and control signals, responds to its I/O address, and receives and places

data on the eight data lines.

The CIO-DIO96 has one bank of base address-select switches, and one wait-state jumper. Verify their settings

before installing the board in your computer.

Base address switch

The easiest way to set the base address is to let InstaCal show you the correct settings. However, if you are

already familiar with setting ISA base addresses, you may use the base address switch description below to

guide your base address selection.

The base address is the starting location that software writes to when communicating with the CIO-DIO96. A

set of DIP switches is used to set the base address. By placing the switch down, the CIO-DIO96 address decode

logic is instructed to respond to that address bit. A complete address is constructed by calculating the HEX or

decimal number which corresponds to all the address bits the board has been instructed to respond to.

The board is shipped with the base address set to 300 hex (see ). Unless there is already a board in your

system that uses address 300 hex (768 decimal), leave the switches as they were set at the factory.

DDRESS

In the default configuration, addresses 9 and 8 are down, and all others are up. Address 9 = 200 hex

(512 decimal), and address 8 = 100 hex (256 decimal). When added together they equal 300 hex (768 decimal).

Disregard the numbers printed on the switch

When setting the base address, refer to the numbers printed in white on the printed circuit board.

You can set the base address switch to any address in the range of 000-3F8. If you are not using IBM

prototyping cards or another board which occupies these addresses, 300-31Fh are also free to use.

Addresses not specifically listed, such as 390-39Fh, are not reserved and may be available. Check your

computer for other boards which may use I/O addresses.

Wait state jumper

The CIO-DIO96 board has a wait state jumper which you can set to enable an on-board wait state generator. A

wait state is an extra delay injected into the processor's clock via the bus. This delay slows down the processor

when the processor addresses the CIO-DIO96 board, so that signals from slow devices (chips) are valid.

The jumper is shown in configured for OFF (wait state is disabled).Figure 2

Figure 2. Wait state jumper

WAIT

STATE

The wait state generator is only active when the CIO-DIO96 is being accessed. Your PC will not be slowed

down in general by using the wait state.

Because all PC expansion board buses are slowed to either 8 MHz or 10 MHz, the wait state generally is not

required. If you experience sporadic failures, try enabling the wait state generator.
