DIGITAL I/O CARD–16
2. Introduction
2.1 Overview
The Digital I/O Card–16 provides 16 reed relays that can latch power, data, or
other electronic signals for control applications and 16 optically isolated inputs to
allow monitoring of off-board switch closures, relays, or for any other general-
purpose monitoring needs. The card is PCI 2.1 bus compliant. Addressing, data,
and control signals are TTL compatible.
2.2 What’s Included
The Digital I/O Card–16 is shipped with the following items. If any of these items
are missing or damaged, contact Black Box at 724-746-5500.
• Digital I/O Card–16
• Systems software (on a CD-ROM)
• This users’ manual
2.3 Technical Description
The Digital I/O Card–16 provides four parallel input/output (I/O) ports. The
ports are organized as ports A, B, C, and D. Ports A and B are input ports
interfaced to optically-isolated inputs, while ports C and D are reed relay output
ports. Assuming an I/O address of 300 Hex, Table 2-1 shows the port addresses.
Table 2-1. Port addresses.
Base Address Hex Decimal Mode
Port A Address 300 768 Input Port (Opto-Input)
Port B Address 301 769 Input Port
Port C Address 302 770 Output Port (Reed Relays)
Port D Address 303 771 Output Port

• Highly reliable 10-VA DIP reed relays used.
• Multiple adapters can reside in same computer.
• All address, data, and control signals are TTL compatible.
2.3.2 I
NPUT
P
ORTS
Ports A and B are 8-bit input ports connected to optically isolated input sensors.
Each sensor can be used to interface a voltage input and then sense whether the
voltage is on or off. Each sensor is isolated (with respect to a common ground)
from every other sensor, and it’s also isolated with respect to the host PC ground.
This means that signals such as low-level AC line voltage, motor servo voltage, and
control relay signals can be “sensed,” or read by the PC, without the risk of damage
due to ground loops or ground faults.
Each sensor input pair has a current-limiting resistor that is used to limit the input
current to the opto-isolator. The opto-isolator has two “back-to-back” diodes
internally. This allows AC or DC signals to be sensed, regardless of polarity. When
the applied voltage is high enough to cause the LED in the opto-isolator to power
on, the output of the opto-isolator goes low (0 volts) and the signal is read as a low
logic level (binary 0) by the PC. When the input signal is too low to power on the
opto-isolator, the output goes high and the port bit is read by the PC as a high
logic level (binary 1).
