To access the device driver blocks, double-click on the sublibrary icon.
The blocks in the library contain device drivers that can be used for the
DAS-1600/1400 Series I/O boards. The DAS-1601/1602 boards have 16 analog
input (ADC) channels, two 12-bit analog output (DAC) channels and 4-bits of
digital I/O. The DAS-1401/1402 boards do not have DAC channels. The
DAS-1601/1401 boards have high programmable gains (1, 10, 100 and 500),
while the DAS-1602/1402 boards offer low programmable gains (1, 2, 4 and 8).
For more information, refer to the manufacturer’s documentation for the I/O
board.

Configuring Device Driver Blocks
Each device driver block has a dialog box that you use to set configuration
parameters. As with all Simulink blocks, double-clicking on the block displays
the dialog box. Some of the device driver block parameters (such as Base I/O
Address) are hardware specific and are set either at the factory or configured
via DIP switches at the time of installation.
