Introduction

The REL-16 provides 16 reed relay outputs. The outputs offer 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 REL-16 is designed to be used with a variety of Operating Systems including Windows

98/NT/ME/2000/XP, Linux, and DOS. The SeaI/O API (Application Programmer Interface) included on CD

with the REL-16 provides a variety of useful high-level function calls implemented as a Windows dynamic

link library (DLL) and as a Linux kernel module and library. In addition to the API, SeaI/O includes sample

code and utilities to simplify software development.

The following illustration shows the correlation between the DIP-switch setting and the address bits used

to determine the base address. In the example below, address 300 is selected as the base address. Address

300 in binary is XX 11 0000 00XX where X = a non-selectable address bit and address bit A9 is always a 1.

DIP-Switch Illustration

Setting the switch ‘On’ or ‘Closed’ corresponds to a ‘0’ in the address, while leaving it ‘Off’ or ‘Open’

corresponds to a ‘1’.

Installation

Software Installation

Windows Installation

Do not install the Adapter in the machine until the software had been fully installed.

Only users running Windows 7 or newer should utilize these instructions for accessing and

installing the appropriate driver via Sealevel’s website. If you are utilizing an operating system

prior to Windows 7, please contact Sealevel by calling 864.843.4343 or emailing

[email protected] to receive access to the proper driver download and installation

instructions.

1. Begin by locating, selecting, and installing the correct software from the Sealevel software driver

database.

2. Select the Part Number (3095) for your device from the listing.

3. Click the ‘Install Drivers’ button.

4. The setup file will automatically detect the operating environment and install the proper

components.

5. A screen may appear with the declaration: “The publisher cannot be determined due to the

problems below: Authenticode signature not found.” Please select the ‘Yes’ button and proceed

with the installation. This declaration simply means that the Operating System is not aware of the

driver being loaded. It will not cause any harm to your system.

6. During setup, the user may specify installation directories and other preferred configurations. This

program also adds entries to the system registry that are necessary for specifying the operating

parameters for each driver. An uninstall option is also included to remove all registry/INI file entries

from the system.

To confirm that the SeaCOM driver has been successfully installed, click on the ‘Start’ button, and then

select ‘All Programs’. You should see the ‘SeaCOM’ program folder listed.

You are now ready to proceed with connecting the 3098 to your system. Refer to the Hardware

Installation section for details.

the bracket. This bracket also features a strain relief function that should be used to

prevent un-expected cable removal.

6. Replace the screw you removed for the blank and use it to secure the adapter into the

slot. (This is required to ensure FCC Part 15 compliance.)

7. Replace the cover.

8. Connect the power cord

The REL-16 is now ready for use.

Programming the REL-16

Sealevel’s SeaI/O software is provided to assist in the development of reliable applications for the Sealevel

Systems family of digital I/O adapters. The software also includes driver functions for use in accessing the

I/O as well as helpful samples and utilities.

Programming for Windows

The SeaI/O API (Application Programmer Interface) provides a variety of useful high-level function calls

implemented in a Windows dynamic link library (DLL). The API is defined in the help file

(Start/Programs/SeaIO/SeaIO Help) under “Application Programmers Interface”. This help file also

includes detailed information dealing with installation / removal of the software and information about

latency, logic states, and device configuration.

For C language programmers we recommend using the API to access the ReL-16. If you are programming

in Visual Basic, using the ActiveX control included with SeaI/O is advised.

Samples and Utilities

A variety of sample programs and utilities (both executable and source code) are included with SeaI/O.

Further documentation on these samples can be found by selecting “Start/Programs/SeaI/O/Sample

Application Description”. Information about where the files are physically stored on your disk is also

included in this same file.

Programming for Linux

SeaI/O for Linux consists of two major parts: a kernel module and a library. The kernel module is a simple

IO pass-through device, allowing the library to handle the more sophisticated functions provided to SeaI/O

users. It is provided in a ‘tarball’ format and can easily be compiled and included in the kernel build.

Application Programmers Interface (API)

Most modern operating systems do not allow direct hardware access. The SeaIO driver and API have been

included to provide control over the hardware in Windows and Linux environments. The purpose of this

section of the manual is to help the customer with the mapping of the API to the actual inputs and relays

for the 3095 specifically. Complete documentation of the API can be found in its accompanying help file.

Digital I/O Interface

The REL-16 provides two output ports. The ports, which are reed relay output ports, are organized as ports

A and B. Assuming an I/O address of 302 Hex the following table shows the Port Addresses.
