Chapter 1. Chapter 1 Introduction Thank you for buying the Advantech PCI-1761. The Advantech PCI1761 is a 8-channel relay actuator and 8-channel isolated digital input card for the PCI bus. Its eight on-board SPDT relays are ideal for applications such as device ON/OFF control or small power switched. For easy monitoring, each relay is equipped with one red LED to show its ON/OFF status.
Chapter 1 Introduction any incidental harms. If connected to an external input source with surgeprotection, the PCI-1761 can offer up to a maximum of 2,000 VDC ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection. Even with an input voltage rising up to 70 VDC, the PCI-1761 can still manage to work properly albeit only for short period of time.

Chapter 2 Installation 2.
2.4 Driver Installation Note: ✎ We recommend you to install the driver before you install the PCI1761 card into your system, since this will guarantee a smooth instal lation process. The 32-bit DLL driver Setup program for the PCI-1761 card is included on the companion CD-ROM that is shipped with your DA&C card package. Please follow the steps below to install the driver software: Step 1: Insert the companion CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
Chapter 2 Installation Step 3: Select the DLL Drivers option. Step 4: Select the Windows 95/98 or Windows NT or Windows 2000 option according to your operating system. Just follow the instal lation instructions step by step to complete your DLL driver setup. Fig.
2.5 Hardware Installation Note: ✎ Make sure you have installed the driver first before you install the card (please refer to 2.4 Driver Installation) After the DLL driver installation is completed, you can now go on to install the PCI-1761 card in any PCI slot on your computer. But it is suggested that you should refer to the computer user manual or related documentation if you have any doubt. Please follow the steps below to install the card on your system.
Chapter 2 Installation After the PCI-1761 card is installed, you can verify whether it is properly installed on your system in the Device Manager: 1. Access the Device Manager through Control Panel/System/Device Manager. 2. The device name of the PCI-1761 should be listed on the Device Manager tab on the System Property Page. Fig. 2-5 The device name listed on the Device Manager Note: ✎ If your card is properly installed, you should see the device name of your card listed on the Device Manager tab.
After your card is properly installed on your system, you can now configure your device using the Device Installation Program that has itself already been installed on your system during driver setup. A complete device installation procedure should include device setup, configuration and testing. The following sections will guide you through the Setup, Configuration and Testing of your device. 2.
Chapter 2 Installation Step 2: On the Device Installation program window, select the Setup menu item on the menu bar, and click the Device command (Fig. 2-6) to bring up the I/O Device Installation dialog box (Fig. 2-7). You can then view the device(s) already installed on your system (if any) on the Installed Devices list box. Since you haven't installed any device yet, you might see a blank list such as the one in (Fig. 2-6). Fig.
Fig. 2-8 The "Device(s) Found" dialog box Configuring the Device Step 4: On the Device Setting dialog box (Fig. 2-9), you can configure the ID0 ~ ID7 Interrupt trigger mode either as Rising Edge or Falling Edge, and Enable or Disable the ID0 ~ ID7. Fig. 2-9 The Device Setting dialog box Step 5: After you have finished configuring the device, click OK and the device name will appear in the Installed Devices box as seen in Fig. 2.10 Advantech Co., Ltd. www.advantech.
Chapter 2 Installation Fig. 2-10 The Device Name appearing on the list of devices box Note: ✎ As we have noted, the device name "000:PCI-1761 I/O=6500H" begins with a device number "000", which is specifically assigned to each card. The device number is passed to the driver to specify which device you wish to control. After your card is properly installed and configured, you can click the Test… button to test your hardware by using the testing utility we supplied.
Chapter 3. Chapter 3 Signal Connections 3.1 Overview Maintaining signal connections is one of the most important factors in ensuring that your application system is sending and receiving data correctly. A good signal connection can avoid unnecessary and costly damage to your PC and other hardware devices. This chapter provides useful information about how to connect input and output signals to the PCI1761 via the I/O connector. 3.
Chapter 3 Signal Connections 3.3 Relay connections After power on, the initial relay output status of PCI-1761 is shown as below: Figure 3-2: Relay output connection A write operation to I/O address, BASE +0, will change the output status of each relay. For example, if Bit 0 of BASE +0 is set "1" (logic high), relay 0, K0, will switch from position "NORMALLY CLOSED", R0_NC, to position "NORMALLY OPEN", R0_NO. This means that LOAD2 will be de-energized, while LOAD1 is energized.
