Introduction

The DIO-16.LPCI provides 8 optically isolated inputs and 8 reed relay SPST (single pole-single throw)

outputs. The inputs protect the PC and other sensitive equipment from spikes and ground loop current that

can be generated in industrial environments, while the outputs provide high quality, long life, low current

(10 Watt maximum), dry contact switch closures. Reed relays are well suited for low current applications.

The relays are normally open and will close when energized.

The board meets the requirements for the MD1 "Low Profile" specification as defined by the PCISIG in the

PCI 2.2 Specifications Low Profile Addendum. The DIO-16.LPCI also features Universal Bus (3.3 and 5.0V)

operation.

The DIO-16.LPCI is designed to be used with a variety of Operating Systems including Windows, Linux, and

DOS. The SeaI/O API (Application Programming Interface) provides a variety of useful high-level function

calls implemented as a Windows dynamic link library (.DLL) and as a Linux static library (.a). In addition to

the API, SeaI/O includes a device driver, sample code, and utilities to simplify software development.

Features

•Eight optically isolated inputs optimized for +5V

•Eight Reed relay outputs (SPST)

•Highly reliable 10VA Reed relays

•MD1 Low Profile and Universal Bus (3.3V and 5V) compatible

•Power (+5V and +12V) and ground provided on connector

•SeaI/O Classic software supports Windows and Linux Operating Systems

Advisory Conventions

Warning

The highest level of importance used to stress a condition where damage could result to the

product, or the user could suffer serious injury.

Important

The middle level of importance used to highlight information that might not seem obvious or a

situation that could cause the product to fail.

Note

The lowest level of importance used to provide background information, additional tips, or other

non-critical facts that will not affect the use of the product.

Optional Items

Depending upon your application, you are likely to find one or more of the following items useful for

interfacing the DIO-16.LPCI to real-world signals. All items can be purchased from our website

(http://www.sealevel.com) or by calling (864) 843-4343.

Cables

DB44 Male to DB44 Female, 72” Extension Cable (Item# CA185)

The CA185 is a standard DB44M to DB44F extension cable.

Extend a DB44 cable or locate a piece of hardware where it is

needed with this six foot (72”) cable. The connectors are

pinned one-to-one, so the cable is compatible with any device

or cable with DB44 connectors. The cable is fully shielded

against interference and the connectors are molded to provide

strain relief. Dual metal thumbscrews secure the cable

connections and prevent accidental disconnection.

DB44 Male to BD37 Male, 72” Cable (Item# CA206)

DB44 Male to DB37 Male Cable, 72 in Length - for 8012. The

CA206 is useful for interfacing the DB44 connector on the

8012 to the DB37 connector on the TB02 terminal block.

Terminal Blocks

Terminal Block –DB37 Male and DB37 Female to 27 Screw Terminals (Item# TB02)

CABLE & TERMINAL BLOCK KIT

The TB02 terminal block can be used to break out serial and

digital DB37 connectors to screw terminals for easy field

wiring. The terminal block was designed with both DB37 male

and female connectors, therefore; it can be used with any

DB37 board regardless of the board's port gender.

Terminal Block Kit –DB37 Male and DB37 Female to 27 Screw Terminals

(Item# TB02-KT)

The TB02-KT terminal block can be used to break out serial

and digital DB37 connectors to screw terminals for easy field

wiring. The terminal block was designed with both DB37

male and female connectors, therefore; it can be used with

any DB37 board regardless of the board's port gender. The

TB02-KT ships with a RoHS compliant TB02 terminal block, a

6 piece of slotted Snap Track, and two DIN-rail mounting

clips.

Terminal Block Kit –TB02 + CA206 Cable (Item# KT111)

CABLE & TERMINAL BLOCK KIT

The TB02 terminal block can be used to break out serial and

digital DB37 connectors to screw terminals for easy field

wiring. The terminal block was designed with both DB37 male

and female connectors, therefore; it can be used with any

DB37 board regardless of the board's port gender.

Reference Book

The Digital I/O Handbook –A Practical Guide to Industrial Input and Output

Applications (Item# REF101)

2. Choose the link for the desired software package and click on the ‘Download File’ link to

download the current driver.

3. Proceed to the Manual Software Installation guide for your operating system.

WINDOWS INSTALLATION

Do not connect the hardware until the software has been successfully installed.

To install Sealevel software, you must log in as an administrator or have administrator privileges

in the Windows.

Linux Installation

Most Sealevel Linux software is distributed as source code. To use the software, it must be

compiled. Refer to the README file in each package for system prerequisites.

You must have administrative privileges to install the software. It is not necessary to have

administrative privileges to build or use the software.

All command syntax is case sensitive.

1. Begin by locating, selecting, and installing the correct software (SeaIO Classic for Linux) from the

Sealevel software driver database.

2. Select the Part Number (8012) for your adapter from the listing.

3. Select ‘SeaIO Classic for Linux.’ The setup file will automatically detect the operating environment

and install the proper components. Next (depending on your browser) select the ‘Run this program

from its current location’ or ‘Open’ option. Follow the information presented on the screens that

follow.

4. Now compile and prepare the drivers for use: make install

5. With the system off and unplugged, install your SeaIO PCI card.

6. Plug system back in and boot Linux. Login as "root".

7. Load the driver by typing: SeaIO -load

8. The driver has enabled the card and is ready to use.

To set up Linux to automatically load the driver; refer to a Linux manual concerning your specific distribution

for help. At this point, the driver has enabled the hardware and it is ready to use. You now have the option

to run a test utility on it.

Physical Installation

The Sealevel adapter can be installed in an ISA/PCI/PCIe expansion slot.

5V keyed PCI cards will not fit or work in 3.3V keyed PCI slots

ISA Card Edge (5V)

PCI Bus Card Edge (5V)
