2.2.3 Physical ID of DIP Switch
DID1: Set physical ID number. When the PC is installed more than one PCI8735 , you can use the DIP switch to set a
physical ID number for each board, which makes it very convenient for users to distinguish and visit each board in the
progress of the hardware configuration and software programming. The following four-place numbers are expressed by
the binary system: When DIP switch points to "ON", that means "1", and when it points to the other side, that means "0."
As they are shown in the following diagrams: place "ID3" is the high place."ID0" is the low place, and the black part in
the diagram represents the location of the switch. (Test software of the company often uses the logic ID management
equipments and at this moment the physical ID DIP switch is invalid. If you want to use more than one kind of the
equipments in one and the same system at the same time, please use the physical ID as much as possible. As for the
differences between logic ID and physical ID, please refer to the function explanations of "CreateDevice" and

Chapter 4 Connection Ways for Each Signal
4.1 AD Single-ended Input Connection
Single-ended mode can achieve a signal input by one channel, and several signals use the common reference ground.
This mode is widely applied in occasions of the small interference and relatively many channels.
Figure 4.1 single-ended input connection
4.2 AD Double-ended Input Mode
Double-ended input mode, which was also called differential input mode, uses positive and negative channels to input a
signal. This mode is mostly used when biggish interference happens and the channel numbers are few.
Single-ended/double-ended mode can be set by the software, please refer to PCI8735 software manual.
According to the diagram below, PCI8735 board can be connected as analog voltage double-ended input mode, which
can effectively suppress common-mode interference signal to improve the accuracy of acquisition. Positive side of the
16-channel analog input signal is connected to AI0~AI15, the negative side of the analog input signal is connected to
AI16~AI31, equipments in industrial sites share the AGND with PCI8735 board.

Chapter 5 Notes, Calibration and Warranty Policy
5.1 Notes
In our products’ packing, user can find a user manual, a PCI8735 module and a quality guarantee card. Users must
keep quality guarantee card carefully, if the products have some problems and need repairing, please send products
together with quality guarantee card to ART, we will provide good after-sale service and solve the problem as quickly
as we can.
When using PCI8735, in order to prevent the IC (chip) from electrostatic harm, please do not touch IC (chip) in the
front panel of PCI8735 module.
5.2 AD Analog Signal Input Calibration
Every device has to be calibrated before sending from the factory. It is necessary to calibrate the module again if
users want to after using for a period of time or changing the input range. PCI8735 default input range: ±10V, in the
manual, we introduce how to calibrate PCI8735 in ±10V, calibrations of other input ranges are similar.
Prepare a digital voltage instrument which the resolution is more than 5.5 bit, install the PCI8735 module, and then
power on, warm-up for fifteen minutes.
1) Zero adjustment: select one channel of analog inputs, take the channel AI0 for example, connect 0V to AI0,
and then run ART Data Acquisition Measurement Suite in the WINDOWS. Choose channel 0, ±10V input
range and start sampling, adjust potentiometer RP1 in order to make voltage value is 0.000V or about 0.000V.
Zero adjustment of other channels is alike.
2) Full-scale adjustment: select one channel of analog inputs, take the channel AI0 for example, connect
9997.55mV to AI0, and then run ART Data Acquisition Measurement Suite in the WINDOWS. Choose
channel 0, ±10V input range and start sampling, adjust potentiometer RP2 in order to make voltage value is
9997.55mV or about 9997.55mV. Full-scale adjustment of other channels is alike.
3) Repeat steps above until meet the requirement.

Products Rapid Installation and Self-check
Rapid Installation
Product-driven procedure is the operating system adaptive installation mode. After inserting the disc, you can select the
appropriate board type on the pop-up interface, click the button【driver installation】; or select CD-ROM drive in
Resource Explorer, locate the product catalog and enter into the APP folder, and implement Setup.exe file. After the
installation, pop-up CD-ROM, shut off your computer, insert the PCI card. If it is a USB product, it can be directly
inserted into the device. When the system prompts that it finds a new hardware, you do not specify a drive path, the
operating system can automatically look up it from the system directory, and then you can complete the installation.
Self-check
At this moment, there should be installation information of the installed device in the Device Manager (when the
device does not work, you can check this item.). Open "Start -> Programs -> ART Demonstration Monitoring and
Control System -> Corresponding Board -> Advanced Testing Presentation System", the program is a standard testing
procedure. Based on the specification of Pin definition, connect the signal acquisition data and test whether AD is
normal or not. Connect the input pins to the corresponding output pins and use the testing procedure to test whether the
switch is normal or not.
Delete Wrong Installation
When you select the wrong drive, or viruses lead to driver error, you can carry out the following operations: In
Resource Explorer, open CD-ROM drive, run Others-> SUPPORT-> PCI. bat procedures, and delete the hardware
information that relevant to our boards, and then carry out the process of section I all over again, we can complete the
new installation.
