Assembly hints
1. Assembly (Skipping this can lead to troubles ! )
Ok, so we have your attention. These hints will help you to make this project
successful. Read them carefully.
1.1 Make sure you have the right tools:
• A good quality soldering iron (25-40W) with a
small tip.
• Wipe it often on a wet sponge or cloth, to keep it clean; then apply solder to
the tip, to give it a wet look. This is called ‘thinning’ and will protect
the tip, and enables you to make good connections. When solder
rolls off the tip, it needs cleaning.
• Thin raisin-core solder. Do not use any flux or grease.
• A diagonal cutter to trim excess wires. To avoid injury when cutting
excess leads, hold the lead so they cannot fly towards the eyes.
• Needle nose pliers, for bending leads, or to hold compo-
nents in place.
• Small blade and Phillips screwdrivers. A basic range
is fine.
For some projects, a basic multi-meter is required, or might
be handy
1.2 Assembly Hints :
⇒ Make sure the skill level matches your experience, to avoid disappointments.
⇒ Follow the instructions carefully. Read and understand the entire step before
you perform each operation.
⇒ Perform the assembly in the correct order as stated in this manual
⇒ Position all parts on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) as shown on the draw-
ings.
⇒ Values on the circuit diagram are subject to changes.
⇒ Values in this assembly guide are correct*

⇒ Use the check-boxes to mark your progress.
⇒ Please read the included information on safety and customer service
* Typographical inaccuracies excluded. Always look for possible last minute
manual updates, indicated as ‘NOTE’ on a separate leaflet.
1.3 Soldering Hints :
1- Mount the component against the PCB sur-
face and carefully solder the leads
2- Make sure the solder joints are cone-shaped
and shiny
3- Trim excess leads as close as possible to the
solder joint
REMOVE THEM FROM THE TAPE ONE AT A
TIME !

Construction
Mount the components in the order indicated in the separate part list. The parts
marked with (!) require special attention in the assembly instructions.
IMPORTANT : Read the disk file READ.ME before commencing assembly. This
file will report any updated changes.
ATTENTION :If the card is to built as an expansion card (Slave) to one already
connected tot the computer (Master), the components marked with Sshould not
be mounted.

Information
If desired, a voltage divider or filter can be fitted on each analogue input. The voltage
divider can be useful if a higher input voltage than normal is to be monitored. Normally
only a maximum of 5V can be accepted by the input. The filter can be useful for eliminat-
ing (mains) hum from the signal for example. Points A to D give examples.
No attenuation and no filtering (input impedance= 100K). In place of RA a
jump wire needs to be fitted. RA is a resistor. Nothing should be fitted in
place of CA. Ri = 100K
RA : J
RB : 100K (1-04-B)
CA : /
50Hz mains filter (low-pass filter). By use of the formula, different values for RA
and CA can be calculated as a function of the desired frequency. If a high value
for CA is arrived at, then an electrolytic capacitor can be used, but check the
polarity.
Freq. = 50Hz / -3dB
CA = 1

An input attenuator of 10. This means that up to 50V may be connected to the
input, which is then reduced by a factor of 10. With the first values the input imped-
ance is 20k. With the values in brackets the input impedance is 200k. With higher
input voltages it is advisable to choose high values for the resistors, otherwise re-
sistors of a high power rating must be used for RA.

Conversion of current to voltage. In order to avoid interruptions, it is possible for
a variable current to be measured as the reference input value which is used
for current to voltage conversion. Here a variable current from 4 to 20 mA is
converted to a voltage of 0.8 to 4V.
4—20mA > 0,8—4V

Connection numbering
Output numbering is important, especially if a number of cards are to be used
together as these numbers will be used by the control programmes. Cut out the
desired numbers from the sticky labels provided.
Input/Outputs (I/O):
I/O1 to I/O16, or if used as slave
I/O17 to I/O32
I/O33 to I/O48 or I/O49 to I/O64.
Analogue outputs (DAC):
DAC1 to DAC8, or if used as slave
DAC9 to DAC16
DAC17 to DAC24 or DAC25 to DAC32.
Precision analogue output (DA):
DA1, or if used as slave
DA2, DA3 or DA4.
Analogue inputs (AD):
AD1 to AD4, or if used as slave
AD5 to AD8; AD9 to AD12 or AD13 to AD16.
22. Connection numbering

12
TEST
Prior to testing the card by computer a number of "passive" tests can be done.
Connect the connectors, MAINS N and L to the supply voltage.
Normally no LEDs should light up.
Measure the voltage on testpin +5V to see if the 5V supply voltage is present.
Connect the test points 1 to 16, one by one, with the earth (GND) testpin.
Normally the LED from the respective channel should light up.
CONNECTION
The computer can be connected to the card via a standard cable.
If no printer is to be connected in, a cable can be made up, such as shown in figure
1.0 (the length of the cable has been tested to 10m).
NB: if the printer feed through connector is used and problems subsequently occur
with printing, then shorter cables must be used.
If the card has been built as a slave unit, then it must be connected via the three
pole connector J31 and through to the GNR, SCL and SDA connections.
See the users manual for further connection configurations and tests.
