Figure 3-1 shows that digital input is isolated by photo-coupler. When applying plus(+) voltage to
“IN_COM0”, and applying minus(-) voltage to digital input(DIN0 ~ DIN7), the current is flowing through
diode in the inside to photo-coupler and an output direction transistor is applied an electric current
according to flow electric current.
There are 4 circuits as above picture to a board. In other words, there is a IN_COM signal each 8
photo-couplers, total IN_COM signals are 4 (IN_COM0 ~ IN_COM3).
If you want completely isolated circuit, it is good to use the external power better than to use the
board power.

[Figure 4-1. Digital Output Circuit]
Figure 4-1 shows that the digital output is isolated by photo-coupler. The “OUT_POWER” is
connected commonness to an output circuit. "OUT_POWER" is an external power supply or 5V PCI or
ISO 5V (DC-DC output power) inside the board, depending on the jumper setting of connector J2. The
“OUT_VDD” connects an anode of Clamp-Diode for protecting board’s circuits. Generally, it had better
use the external power 5V.

[Figure 5-1. Input Port External Connection]
Ordinary noise and ground issue can occur if industry equipments operate to connect each other.
In ways to solve these issues, it use the isolated connection way that it was completely cut
electrically off. It is good example that used a photo-coupler.
As the Photo-coupler exchange a signal by the light not electrical signal, it can protect equipment
from noises and over-voltage. At this time, if board connect to external equipment and want
completely isolated connection, you should use an external power.
The above mentioned picture is a connection of an input part. If it connect external power to
IN_COM0 ~ IN_COM3 and give to minus(-) power at signal input part, it will be activated.
* 1. The input power voltage range is 5 –24V.

The OUTPUT can use to select the external power or internal power. When use the external power,
perfect isolated input works if you shall not connect a jumper J1.
You can select a DC-DC converter or PCI 5V power in case of internal power. If DC-DC converter
use, jumper set up only J1 (3-2 short), JP1 do not connect to a jumper. If PCI 5V power use, J2
jumper set up (1-2 short).

If usable environment don’t use external power, it can use at boards which it supplied the power.
At this time it can set up by jumper whether or not output to power of isolated DC-DC Converter
(option) or output to power of PC Internal Power (+5V).
Also the GROUND can select whether or not output to DC-DC Converter (option) GROUND or
output to internal PC GROUND. If it uses PC internal power, it shall certainly set up to PC GROUND.

7-2. Board Address Setup
Several DIO6400 series boards classify each board address, you shall use it at systems that a lot
of I/O ports was required.
Distribution of each board sets it up through 4 pin switch (SW1) in a board. A system is designed of
4 maximum boards at the same time so as usable.

8. Installation
The installation order is as follows, explain Windows XP basis if there isn’t special explanation.
(1) If new hardware is found, Wizard will ask you to install the corresponding driver. For installation
of the driver, select the item “Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)”and click “Next”
as in the below figure.
[Figure 8-1. PCI-DIO6400 Search Window]
(2) After find a driver folder of the CD, press “next”button.
ex) F:\PCI-DIO6400\driver
The driver folder includes a file of “pci_dio6400.inf”and “pci_dio6400.sys”that it is
necessary for driver installation.

PCIe-DIO6400 Users Manual (Rev 1.0)
-15- http://www.daqsystem.com
(3) When you click Next, the driver files are installed.
(4) When the installation is complete, normally same as the picture below.

PCIe-DIO6400 Users Manual (Rev 1.0)
-16- http://www.daqsystem.com
(5) If the installation is completely finished, you confirm it in the following ways. Do the following
steps to show up the “Device Manager” window. [My Computer -> properties -> Hardware ->
Device Manager -> Multifunction Adaptors -> PCI-DIO6400]
[Figure 8-2. “Select “My computer”->”Properties”]
[Figure 8-3. “System Properties” window-“Hardware” Tab]

PCIe-DIO6400 Users Manual (Rev 1.0)
-17- http://www.daqsystem.com
[Figure 8-4. “Device Manager” window]
If you can see the “PCI-DIO6400” at Multifunction Adaptors, the driver installation is to have
been over. (Check the red circle)
Notice : After installation, you should re-boot the system for the proper operation.

9. Sample Program Explanation
9-1 Program Interface
DAQ system provides a sample program to make the user be familiar with the board operation and
to make the program development easier. You can find the sample program in the CDROM
accompanying with the board. One of the execution file is “PCI_DIO6400.exe”.
Sample program is provided in source form in order to show the usage of API (Application
Programming Interface) of the board and may be modified for customer’s own usage.
[Figure 9-1. When Sample program “PCI_DIO6400.exe’ is executed]
To run the sample application program, you need to use API, it is a form of client DLL. To compile
the sample source to make its executable file, you have to use Import Library files and header files.
You can find them in the CDROM. To run the .exe file, the API DLL file (PCI_DIO6400.DLL) must be in
the same directory with the .exe file or Windows system folder. Another method is to add the directory
of API DLL file to PATH environmental variable.
