Installation

Software Installation

Hardware Installation

Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and cables. TURN OFF your c

computer before installing or removing any components on the computer.
Remove the cover of your computer.

Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your computer.
Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutralize the static electricity that might be on
your body.

Insert the PCI-1712,1712L card into a PCI slot. Hold the card only by its edges and carefully align it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into place. Use of excessive force must be avoided; otherwise, the card might be damaged.
Fasten the bracket of the PCI card on the back panel rail of the computer with screws.

Connect appropriate accessories (68-pin cable, wiring terminals, etc. if necessary) to the PCI card.
Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-connect the cables you removed in step 2.

Plugin the power cord and turn on the computer.

Connections

Analog Input Connections
The PCI-1712/1712L supports either 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog inputs. Each individual input channel is software-selected. Single-ended Channel Connections The single-ended input configuration has only one signal wire for each channel, and the measured voltage (Vm) is the voltage of the wire as referenced against the common ground.

Differential Channel Connections
The differential input channels operate with two signal wires for each channel, and the voltage difference between both signal wires is measured. On the PCI1712/1712L, when all channels are configured to differential input, up to 8 analog channels are available.

Analog Output Connections
The PCI-1712/1712L provides two D/A output channels, AO0_OUT and AO1_OUT. Users may use the PCI- 1712 internally-provided precision +5V (+10V) reference to generate 0 ~+5 V and 0 ~+10 V unipolar D/A output range; or to generate -5 ~+5 V and -10 ~ +10 V for bipolar output range.Users also may createD/A output range through external references, AO0_REF and AO1_REF. The external reference input range is 0 ~10 V. For example, connecting with an external reference of +7 V will generate 0 ~+7 V D/A output for unipolar; and -7 ~+7 V for bipolar.
