Board ID
The PCIE-1730H has a built-in DIP Switch that helps define each card’s ID when
multiple PCIE-1730H cards have been installed on the same PC chassis. The board
ID setting function is very useful when users build their system with multiple PCIE-
1730H cards. With correct Board ID settings, you can easily identify and access each
card during hardware configuration and software programming.
Reset Protection
When the system has undergone a hot reset (i.e. without turning off the system
power), the PCIE-1730H can either retain outputs values of each channel, or return
to its default configuration as open status, depending on its on-board jumper setting.
This function protects the system from wrong operations during unexpected system
resets.
