APCI-1710
The APCI-1710 is a general purpose counting board with four function
modules.
xPC Target supports this board with one driver block:
•“APCI-1710 Incremental Encoder”
Board Characteristics
APCI-1710 Incremental Encoder
A function module is individually programmable with different firmware. This
is done by using the ADDI-DATA utility SET1710. This driver supports the
APCI-1710 if the specified function module is programmed with the
incremental encoder firmware.
If the board and its specific module is not programmed with the incremental
encoder firmware, SET1710 has to be invoked before the driver can be used
within an xPC Target application. In this case, plug the board into a PC
running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT and install the board as it
is indicated in the ADDI-DATA user manual. Use SET1710 to download the
incremental encoder firmware onto the appropriate function module
residentially. After this step the board can be removed and be plugged into the
target PC.
This driver block has two block outputs. The values output depend on the value
of the Type of Evaluation parameter. See below for further information. Refer
