This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reason-
able protection against harmful interference when the equip-
ment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residen-
tial area is likely to cause interference in which case the user
is required to correct interference at his own expense.
CE
This product has passed the CE test for environmental speci-
fications when shielded cables are used for external wiring.
We recommend the use of shielded cables. This kind of cable
is available from Advantech. Please contact your local sup-
plier for ordering information.
The PCI-1758UDO card enables powerful data acquisition
(DAS) for the PCI bus. It features a unique circuit design,
and complete functions for data acquisition and control. The
PCI-1758UDO card provides specific functions for different
user requirements.
1. Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord
and cables. TURN OFF your computer before
installing or removing any components on the
computer.
2. Remove the cover of your computer.
3. Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your
computer.
4. Touch the metal part on the surface of your com-
puter to neutralize the static electricity that might
be on your body.
5. Insert the PCI-1758UDO card into a PCI slot.
Hold the card only by its edges and carefully align
it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into place.
Use of excessive force must be avoided; other-
wise, the card might be damaged.
6. Fasten the bracket of the PCI card on the back
panel rail of the computer with screws.
7. Connect appropriate accessories (68-pin cable,
wiring terminals, etc. if necessary) to the PCI
card.
8. Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-
connect the cables you removed in step 2.
9. Plug in the power cord and turn on the computer.

Hardware Installation

2 Startup Manual
The I/O connector on PCI-1758UDO is one MINI-SCSI
HDRA-E100 Female connector.
Note: The PCL-101100S-1 (1m) shielded cable is espe-
cially designed for the PCI-1758U series to reduce noise
in the analog signal lines.

Isolated Digital Output Connections
PCI-1758UDO has 128 isolated digital output channels
designated
P0_IDO00~7, P1_IDO00~7, P2_IDO00~7,
P3_IDO00~7, P4_IDO00~7, P5_IDO00~7,
P6_IDO00~7, P7_IDO00~7. P8_IDO00~7,
P9_IDO00~7, PA_IDO00~7, PB_IDO00~7,
PC_IDO00~7, PD_IDO00~7, PE_IDO00~7, and
PF_IDO00~7.
Power On Configuration
The default configuration will be set after power is
turned on. The hardware reset sets all the isolated out-
put channels to “off” status (The current of the load can
not be sink mode). So you do not need to worry about
damaging external devices during system startup or
reset. When the system is hot reset, the status of the iso-
lated digital output channels can be selected by jumper
JP1. The following table shows the configuration of
jumper JP1.
Isolated Output
Each of the isolated output channels is equipped with a
Darlington transistor. All of the 16 output channels
shares common collectors and integral suppression
diodes for induction coil loads.
Note: If an external voltage (5 ~ 40 VDC ) is applied to
an isolated output channel while it is being used as an
output channel, the current will flow from the external
voltage source to the card. Please be cautious about that
the current flowing through each IDO pin can not
exceed 90 mA.
