Chapter 1 Overview
Register-level Programming
Register-level programming is reserved for experienced programmers who find it
necessary to write codes directly at the level of device registers. Since register-level
programming requires much effort and time, we recommend that you use the Advan-
tech DLL drivers instead. However, if register-level programming is indispensable,
you should refer to the relevant information in Appendix C, Register Structure and
Format.
1.6 Accessories
Advantech offers a complete set of accessory products to support the PCI-1762
cards. These accessories include:
Wiring Cable
The PCL-10162 shielded cable is specially designed for PCI-1762 cards to provide
high resistance to noise. To achieve a better signal quality, the signal wires are
twisted in such a way as to form a “twisted-pair cable”, reducing cross-talk and noise
from other signal sources. Furthermore, its analog and digital lines are separately
sheathed and shielded to neutralize EMI/EMC problems. Advantech provides 1 m,
3m and 5m cables for different user requirements.
Wiring Board
The ADAM-3962 is a D-Sub 62-pin wiring terminal module for DIN-rail mounting. This
terminal module can be readily connected to the Advantech PC-Lab cards and allow
easy yet reliable access to individual pin connections for the PCI-1762 card.
