Chapter 1: Installation
Backing up the Master Diskette
The software provided with the ADIO1600 is on a 3 1/2" DOS diskette. As with any software
package, you should make backup copies for everyday use and place your original master diskette
in a safe location.
The easiest way to make a backup copy is to use the DOS DISKCOPY utility.
In a single drive system the command is:
DISKCOPY A: A:
You will need to swap disks as requested by the system.
In a two-disk system the command is:
DISKCOPY A: B:
This will copy the contents of the master disk in drive A to the backup disk in drive B.
Hard Disk Installation
The files contained on the master diskette may also be copied onto your hard disk. To do this,
perform the following:
1.) Place the master diskette into a floppy drive.
2.) Change the active drive to the drive that has the master diskette installed. For example, if the
diskette is in drive A, type A:.
3.) Type INSTALL and follow the screen prompts.
Files contained on the disk are stored in separate directories. These are:
ROOT DIRECTORY: Contains the FINDBASE program that will help you to decide what
base address to use for the card. Also contains the A1216EST.EXE
setup and calibration programs, and POLY.EXE, the linearization
polynomial program.
PSAMPLES: Contains Pascal samples and the Pascal-linkable driver.
CSAMPLES: Contains "C" samples and the C-linkable driver.
BSAMPLES: Contains the QuickBASIC samples as well as the binary and
linkable drivers.

Manual Number: 00650-004-5Page 1-2
ADIO1600 Manual
VBACCES: VisualBASIC utility driver that includes PEEK and POKE statements
for reading and writing RAM as well as OUTPORT and INPORT
for reading and writing port I/O. The driver is in the form of a DLL
and allows you to access hardware as if the language was designed
for it when you use VisualBASIC for Windows. (Support for VisualBASIC
4.x is not yet available).
Installing the ADIO1600 Card
The following procedure will show you how to install the ADIO1600 inside the computer.
1) Ensure that all options have been set as described in the OPTION SELECTION chapter. Be
sure to pay close attention to base address selection.

Failure to remove power from the computer could result in electrical shock, or damage to your
computer system.
3) Remove the computer cover.
4) Locate an unused full length slot, and remove a blank I/O backplate.
Optionally remove a second backplate for the auxiliary digital I/O port.
5) Insert the card in the slot, and install the I/O back plate screw.
6) Install the auxiliary connector backplate connect via a ribbon cable extension from the 40-pin
IDC connector.
7) Inspect the installation for proper fit and seating of the card.
8) Replace the back cover.
9) Reapply power to the computer.
10) Run the A1216EST setup program to test the card, and optionally calibrate.

Chapter 2: Functional Description
Manual Number: 00650-004-5 Page 2-1
Chapter 2: Functional Description
The ADIO1600 is a multifunction high-speed analog/digital I/O card for use in IBM Personal Com-
puters. It is a 3/4 length card that can be installed in an expansion slot of an IBM PC/XT/AT and
compatible computers. With this card installed, the computer can be used as a precision data
acquisition and control system or as a signal analysis instrument. The following paragraphs describe
functions provided by this card.
Analog Inputs
The card accepts up to eight differential or 16 single-ended analog input channels. Inputs are
protected against overvoltages (by the internal multiplexer diodes (rated at 20mA maximum) con-
nected to the + and - of the power supply. An external series 1K resistor is suggested if serious
overvoltage or static problems exist. As an alternative, a factory installed special multiplexer will
extend overvoltage protection further. The channel input configuration is jumper selectable on the
card providing a choice between sixteen single-ended channels or eight differential channels. In the
latter case, common mode rejection ratio is a minimum 80 dB and common mode voltage range is
±12V.
Inputs are amplified by an instrumentation amplifier with a combination of switch selectable gains of
1 or 2, and software selectable gains of 1000, 100, 10 and 1 to provide voltage ranges of ±0.005,
±0.01, ±0.05, ±0.1, ±0.5, ±1 , ±5 and ±10 volts bipolar and 0.01, 0.1, 1, and 10 volts unipolar (gain
switch must be set to x2).
The ADIO1600 uses an industry standard 12-bit successive-approximation analog-to-digital con-
verter (A/D) with a sample and hold amplifier input. Under the right conditions, max throughput is
100,000 conversions per second.
A/D conversions may be initiated in any one of three ways: (a) by software command, (b) by
on-board programmable timer, or (c) by direct external trigger. In turn, data may be transferred to
the computer by either of two software selectable methods: (a) by polling for end of BUSY or (b) by
end of BUSY interrupt.
Input System Expansion
The card can be used with up to 8 external AT16-P analog input expansion cards. The ADIO1600
does not support the programmable gain capability of the AT16-P and requires jumper changes on
the AT16-P to support manual gain. Each AT16-P card provides capability for 16 differential inputs
and, thus, there can be up to a maximum of 128 inputs per combination of AT16-Ps and ADIO1600.
The first AT16-P is connected to the ADIO1600 by a special cable adapter and ribbon cable, any
additional AT16-P cards are daisy-chained to each other by ribbon cables. Cabling information is
provided in Appendix B.

Manual Number: 00650-004-5Page 2-2
ADIO1600 Manual
Discrete Digital I/O
Four bits of TTL/CMOS-compatible digital input capability are provided at the mounting panel con-
nector. Twenty-four additional digital I/O bits are available at the auxiliary connector on the board
which are available at a backplate connector via a ribbon cable extension from the auxiliary connec-
tor. Digital inputs IP0 and IP2 have dual uses. Input IP0 provides an external trigger for the A/D.
Input IP2 is also the gate input for Counter/Timer 0. Note that the use of the Counter prevents use
of IP2.
Four bits of digital output are available with powerful LSTTL logic level load drive capability. Dis-
crete outputs OP0 through OP3 provide multiplexer addressing for input expansion card use, as
described in the INPUT SYSTEM EXPANSION section, or as separate digital outputs.
Additionally, OP0 through OP3 can be individually software configured for use as additional TTL/
CMOS-compatible digital inputs, providing a total of up to eight Digital Inputs at the rear panel
connector.
The auxiliary digital I/O port is from a 8255 Programmable Peripheral Interface which provides 24-
bits of bi-directional input/output bits configured as two sets of 8-bit and two sets of 4-bit digital
input/output ports. This port is extended using a ribbon cable from the side of the board to a 37-pin
connector on a rear mounting bracket.
Counter/Timer
The ADIO1600 contains a type 8254 counter/timer which has three 16-bit programmable down
counters. Counter/Timer #0 is enabled by a digital input (IP2) and uses either the internal 1MHz
clock or an external clock of up to 10 MHZ. Counter/Timers #1 and #2 are concatenated and form
a 32-bit counter/timer for timed A/D trigger pulses and/or external frequency generation. The dual
counter/timer can be enabled by program control and clocked by a 1 MHZ on-board crystal oscilla-
tor source. Counter #2 may be set to generate an interrupt request (IRQ) upon completing a
counter period.
Counter/Timer 0 and Counter/Timers 1 and 2 can be set up for event counting, frequency or period
measurements, and pulse or wave form generation. Also, Counter/Timers 1 and 2 can be pro-
grammed to initiate A/D conversions. See the PROGRAMMABLE INTERVAL TIMER sec-
tion of this manual for a description of ways that the type 8254 counter/timer chip can be used.
Analog Output
The ADIO1600 has two 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (D/A) connected to output drivers ca-
pable of providing 5 mA current drive. By selecting on-board jumpers outputs of 0-5 VDC, 0-10
VDC, 0-2.5 VDC, ±2.5 VDC, ±5VDC, or ±10 VDC are possible.
Interrupts
Interrupts can be initiated by completion of an A/D conversion or Counter timeout if programmed by
software. Interrupt levels 2-7, 10-12, 14 and 15 are selectable via jumpers.

Chapter 2: Functional Description
Manual Number: 00650-004-5 Page 2-3
Reference Voltage and Power Required
A +5.0 volt (±0.05) reference voltage is used internally for the A/D converter and the D/A analog
outputs. The ADIO1600 requires only +5VDC from the computer power supply. An on-board
DC-DC converter translates the 5VDC to low noise, isolated ±15VDC for the precision analog
circuitry.
Input/Output Connections
External connections are made through a standard 37-pin male D connector located at the rear of
the computer and an auxiliary 40-pin IDC connector on the board. External multiplexers or signal
conditioning hardware, such as our AT16-P or LVDT8-P, are connected using special cabling as
described in APPENDIX B.
Utility Software
Utility software is provided on diskette with the ADIO1600 card. This software includes an illus-
trated setup and calibration program, and a universal software driver for any language that supports
the Pascal calling convention (such as QuickBASIC, C, and Pascal), and sample programs. Addi-
tionally, a utility driver for use with VisualBASIC for Windows is provided.
How to remain CE Compliant
In order for machines to remain CE compliant, only CE compliant parts may be used. To keep a
chassis compliant it must contain only compliant cards, and for cards to remain compliant they must
be used in compliant chassis. Any modifications made to the equipment may affect the CE compli-
ance standards and should not be done unless approved in writing by ICS Advent.
The Model ADIO1600 is designed to be CE Compliant when used in an CE compliant chassis.
Maintaining CE Compliance also requires proper cabling and termination techniques. The user is
advised to follow proper cabling techniques from sensor to interface to ensure a complete CE
Compliant system. ICS Advent does not offer engineering services for designing cabling or termina-
tion systems. Although ICS Advent offers accessory cables and termination panels, it is the user's
responsibility to ensure they are installed with proper shielding to maintain CE Compliance.

Option Selection
Many of the ADIO1600 card features are selected by hardware jumpers or switches. At least one
of each of the option categories must be selected if the card is to operate correctly. The A1216EST
setup program provided on diskette with the card provides menu-driven pictorial presentations to
help you quickly set up the card.
You may also refer to FIGURE 3-1: OPTION SELECTION MAP, and the following sections to
set up the card. The card need not be plugged into the computer at this time.
Multiplexer Configuration
Select the desired A/D input multiplexer configuration by moving JP8 and JP9 jumpers to the appro-
priate position:
8-Channel Differential Input = DIFposition
16-Channel Single-Ended Input = SEposition
Unipolar/Bipolar Range
In the unipolar mode, inputs can be positive only; i.e., ranges from zero volts to some positive
voltage. (The maximum voltage span in the unipolar mode is 10V.) In the bipolar mode, inputs can
be between positive and negative full scale limits. In the unipolar range, the JP3 Gain jumper must
be in the x2 position. Select the unipolar or bipolar range using jumper JP4 located in the upper right
hand corner of the card near the I/O connector:
Unipolar= UNIP position
Bipolar = BIP position
The two's complement jumper, JP5, is an option for bipolar ranges which changes the data format
for both the ADC analog input and DAC analog output data registors.
External Conditioning Module Support
AT16-P jumper JP10 sets the internal programmable gain amplifier to a unity gain to simplify soft-
ware programming. The ADIO1600 supports external conditioning modules, such as the AT16-P
series, with MDM driver modules as described in the SOFTWARE SECTION. Additionally, extra
grounds are available on pins 18 (Channel 8) and 11 (Channel 15) by installing respective AT16-P
jumpers JP6 and JP7.
Input Voltage Range
Input voltage range is selected by the combination of the software gain setting and the span of the
input range selected by on-board jumpers. The following table relates voltage range to the gain
required.

Note: The ADIO1600 is best configured for ±5V inputs for compatibility ith external modules
using this range. Other ranges are possible ith proper consideration to the limits of the external
module and ADIO1600. The biploar range is also the preferred range for data formatted in t o's
complement and should be used if the JP5 t o's complement data option jumper is installed. If the
t o's complement data option is enabled, it ill also change the DAC output data registor into the
t o's complement data format.
Analog Output Voltage Range
Output voltage range is selected manually by on-board s itches. Each analog output has a three
s itch group that selects the options. S itch S2 is for DAC0, and S3 is for DAC1, refer to the
OPTION SELECTION MAP or the A1216EST setup soft are for their locations. The t o's
complement data format jumper, JP5, also changes the data format of the DAC registers and must
be considered in its use. Position 1 on each s itch selects bet een unipolar or bipolar operation.
