There is a diagnostic program supplied with PowerDAQ SDK called DIO
Test Application (DIOTest.exe). This program is located in PowerDAQ
program folder in Windows Start/Programs menu. You can run this
program and actually verify the functionality of the DIO. The program
performs “running light” test for every I/O, by default I/Os are
configured as an inputs, but if you will wire up the Port0 (DIO0..15) to
Port1(DIO16..31) and Port2(DIO32..47) to Port3(DIO48..63) using the
100 Ohm-1K resistors (PDL-DIO-STP provide jumpers to make the
connections above, but be careful and do not enable both ports,
connected together as an outputs because there are no current limiting
resistors on the PDL-DIO-STP-64).
