                                       INSTALLATION



This chapter provides lnstructlons for the installing the DAS-16 in an IBM PC/XT/AT and
compatible models. The chapter begins with procedures for unpacking and inspection. It
then describes how to make a back-up copy of the Distribution Software. Descriptions of
the switches and jumpers, and procedures for lnstalllng the DAS16 are also given.


2. I UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Confirm that each item on the packing list has been shipped. It ls a good idea to retain the
outer packing material in the event that the board must be returned to the factory for repair.

1.   Then, if you haven't already done so, unpack the board down to its anti-static
     packaging.

2.   Hold the board ln one hand. Place the other hand tirmly on a metal portion of the sys-
     tem chassis. This procedure eliminates static electrlclty build-up, preventing any possi-
     ble damage to the board.

3.   After allowing a moment for static electrlclty discharge, carefully unwrap the board
     from the anti-static materlal.

4.   Inspect the board for any possible shipping damage. If any sign of damage is detected,
     return the board to the factory as described in Chapter 11.

You are now ready to install your DAS16. Set switches and jumpers as necessary. Consult
section 2.4 for more information. Then, install the board as described in section 2.5.
2.2 MAKING A BACK-UP COPY OF THEDISKETTES
Distribution software ls furnished on several 5.25': 360K floppy diskettes. It is also option-
ally available in 3.5" diskette format. Before installing the software, first create a back-up
copy of the provided diskettes. Follow the general procedure outlined below:

1.    Turn on your computer and display.

2.    Switch to the directory containing your DISKCOPY.EXE DOS utility.

Installation                                           DASi6, DAS16F. & DAS16G User's Manual



3.     At the DOS prompt, type:

       DISKCOPY     {eOurCe    &iVe    deSigCatOr:):       (Copy   drive   deb.gnatOr]:

4.     The system will prompt you through the disk copying process. Insert the source dls-
       kette into the speclfled drive. Then, it will ask you to insert the target disk into the
       other drive. This is a blank, formatted disk which is to be your back-up disk When
       the copying process has been completed, the computer will ask Copy another
        (Y/N) ?. EnterN.

5.     When your copy has been completed, put the original disk is a safe place. Label the

2.3 SWITCHES,
            JUMPERS,
                   AND CONNECTORS
The DA!%16 has several switches and jumpers which must be configured prior to use. This
section describes the switches and jumpers on the board. It also provides a description of
the Analog and Digital I/O connector. Figures 2-1 and 2-2 show the location of each switch,
jumper, and connector for DAS-16.

2,3.1 Switches
DAS-16 must be configured for operation via several on-board switches, as follows:

.      Wait State
.      Base Address
.      Channel/System ConSguration
.      Unlpolar/Bipolar Modes
.      DMA Level Select
.      Gain (DAS-16/16F only)

Except for Base Address, none of these functions requires immediate attention. lf you need
additional help in setting the switches, there are two utility programs provided on the dis-
tribution diskettes which may help. These are the CONFIG and INSTALL programs.
They are described further in section 2.6

Base Address Switch




                               Figure 2-3. BaseAddress Switch


The DAS-16 ls factory-configured for a Base Address of 300 Hex (768 decimal). If this Base
Address is already occupied, you will need to change the Base Address switch setting. (Fig-
ure 2-3 shows the Base Address Switch.) It is essential that each peripheral device, such as a
DAS-16, be assigned a unique Base Address within the range of 200 to 3F0 (512 to 1008
Decimal) and that the address is on an 16-byte boundary. Use Table 2-2 as an aid to select-
ing an unoccupied Base Address.

Channel Configuration Swttch (System Configuration Swttch)
This slide switch is used to select whether 8 differential or 16 single-ended analog input
channels are to beused. On the DA!+16/16F, this switch is marked CHAN CONE. On the
DAS-16G, it is marked SYS CONEIG. On either switch, to select eight differential input
channels, move the switch to the right (towards the 8 designator). Likewise, to select 16
singleended analog input channels, move the switch to the left (towards the 16 designator).

DMA Level Switch
This slide switch selects the DMA level. This two-position slide switch selects the DMA as 1
or 3. Some early PC's utilize Channel 3 for their hard drives. If this is the case, you can not
choose DMA Channel 3 for your DAS-16. Run the program LEV3.EXE supplied with your
DAS16 software to determine if you can use DMA Channel 3. More information regarding
DMA is provided in Appendix B.

A/D Switch
Thii slide switch controls the input range. #en moved to the UN1 (unipolar) position,
inputs can be positive only (ranges are from zero to some positive full-scale voltage). When
moved to the BIP (bipolar) position, inputs can range from equal negative to positive full
scale Emits.

GAIN Switch (DAS- 16/16F Only)
This switch is a 5-position DIP switch and is found only on the DAS16/16F boards. The
five positions on the switch are marked A, B, C, D, and USER These are used to set the
range as shown in the Table 2-3.

lf you need more help ln setting the Gain Switch, run the QBCALEXE, QBCALF.EXE, or
QBCALG.EXE calibration programs and then select the A/D Converter Calibration option.
Also, the range of gains can be extended by selecting and installing your own input resistor.
For more information concerning this, refer to section Chapter 9.
2.3.2 Jumpers
The DAS-16/16F has only one jumper block the TIMER jumper block The DAS16G has
two jumper blocks: the TIMER and WAIT STATE jumper blocks.

The TIMER Jumper
This jumper selects a timer input frequency of 1OMHz or 1MHz. For most applications,
1OMHz is more useful and will give a finer time interval resolution at higher conversion
rates.

The WAITSTATE Jumper
This jumper, when set to ON, will cause the DAS16G to generate a 45On.swait state on I/O
accesses. This jumper will only need to be set to ON, if you have built your own computer
and know that the I/O read and write pulses will be less than 210x3 duration.

Generally, this jumper should be in the OFF position. Most computer manufacturers
include internal wait states on all I/O accesses to maintain compatibility with other stan-
dard peripherals.
2.3.3 Connectors
Analog and Digital I/O occurs through a 37-pin, Dtype connector that projects through the
computer case at the rear of the board. The mating connector for DAS-16 is a standard,
37-pin D-type female such as an lTI/Cannon #DC-37s for soldered connections. Insulation
displacement (flat cable) types are readily available (for example, Amp #745242-l). Other
manufacturers make equivalent parts. This connector and its signal conductor funaions are
described in Figure 24.

u4             NOTE: Pi II thru 18 perform a double function depending on the setting of
               the channel con@uration switch. In &channel differential configuration, these
               pins provide the low inputs of Channels 0 - 7 corresponding to the high inputs
               of these channels on Pins 30 - 37. In 16 channel single-ended configuration,
               they provide additional channel high inputs for Channels 8-15.

2.4 BOARD INSTAUATION
Thii section provides general instructions for installing the DA!%16 Board. For more
detailed information regarding installation of peripheral boards, consult the documentation
provided with your computer.



!
                                          WARNING



    DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSERT OR REMOVE ANY ADAPTER BOARD WITH THE
    COMPUTER POWER ON! THIS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER!



To install the DAS-16 Board:

1.    Turn the power to the PC and to all attached options OFF.

2.    Unplug the power cords of all attached options from the electrical outlets. Make a note
      of where all the cables and cords are attached to the rear of the system unit and discon-
      nect.

3.    Remove the cover of the PC. To do this, first remove the five cover mounting screws on
      the rear panel of the computer. Then, slide the cover of the computer about 3/4 of the
      way forward. Tilt the cover upwards to remove.

4.    Choose an available option slot. Loosen and remove the screw at the top of the blank
      adapter plate. Then slide the plate up and out to remove.

5.    Hold the DAS-16 in one hand. With the a      hand, touch any metallic part of the
      PC/AT cabinet. This will safely discharge any static electricity which has built-up in
      your body.

6.   Set the switches and jumpers as described in section 2.3.

7.   Align the gold edge connector with the edge socket and the back adapter place with the
     adapter plate screw. Gently press the board downward into the socket. Re-install the
     adapter plate screw.

8.   Replace the computer's cover. Tilt the cover up and slide it onto the system's base,
     making sure the front of the cover is under the rail along the front of the frame. Install
     the mounting screws.

9.   Plug in all cords and cables. Turn the power to the computer back on.
2.5 SOFTWARE INSTALLATloN
The DAS-16 software should be installed on your computer's hard drive. Installing the soft-
ware in this manner requires the use of the DOS COPY command. To install the software:

1.    Turn on your PC and its display. You should see a prompt which indicates you are at
      the DOS level.

2.    The following instructions create a special directory for the DAS-16 Disk files and
      assume this dirtiory is called DAS16. At the DOS prompt, change to the root direc-
      tory (or other directory you want the directory to be branched off from), i.e. type:

      cd \

3.    Next, create the DAS-16 directory. Type:

      *dir     \DAS~~OR     md \D~s16

      Change to the DA!+16 directory by typing:

      cd \DAS16

             NOTE: You may also want to create separate directories branched from the
             main DAS-16 directory for the Call Mode software and the Pop-Up/File I/O
             Command software.

Installation                                          DAS16, DAS-16F. & DAS-16G User's Manual



4.     Place each DAS-16 Disk into the floppy drive (assume this ls drive a:) and type:

       copy    a:*.*




       Once you have successfully installed the software you will be ready to run the CON-
       FIGldEXE or IFJSTALLEXE programs.
2.6 BEFOREYOU BEGIN PROGRAMMING
If you have changed any of the jumper or DIP switch settings, before you begin program-
ming, you must run one of two utility programs. These programs can also be run if you
have trouble setting the switches or jumpers. The program that you choose is dependent on
the programming interface selected. If you are going to program the DAS-16 via the
Pop-Up and/or the File I/O Command set, be sure run the CONFIGIG program. This pro-
gram generates a file containing all of your DIP switch and jumper configurations which is
read in by the MDAS16 driver. (Thii is further described in Chapter 3.) Note that the
configuration file created by the CONFIG utility is in binary format and therefore not
readable or suitable for editing using standard text editors. All changes to these files must
occur using this utility.

You should run the INSTALL program if you intend to program the DAS16 via the CALL
Mode Interface or Low-Level Programming techniques. This program generates the
DASl6.ADR file which is read in by some of the BASIC example programs. (See Chapter 5
for more information.)

The remainder of this section describes these two programs. It assumes that you have
already transferred the software to your hard disk
CONFlG 16.EXE
If necessary, switch to the appropriate dllectory.    Then, to run the CONFIGl6 program, at
the DOS prompt type:

       CONFIG          filename


Where:

filename specifies the file to which the configuration parameters are to be saved. This can
be any valid DOS filename and may include a DOS Drive and path specification where nec-
essary.Forexample: CONETG16 C:\DAS16\DASlbG2.CFG
