Setup and Installation
You place a switch in the ON position (single-ended) by sliding the
switch toward the top (numbered side) of the switch block. You place a
switch in the OFF position (differential) by sliding the switch toward the
bottom (unnumbered side) of the switch block.
Figure 3-4 illustrates the setting for channels 0, 5, and 7 configured as
single-ended (switches 1, 6, and 8 are in the ON position) and channels 1,
2, 3, 4, and 6 configured as differential (switches 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 are in
the OFF position).
Figure 3-4. Setting the Input Configuration
Notes:
Since DAS-800 boards always use a single-ended input
configuration, they do not contain an input configuration switch block.
Setting the Interrupt Level
DAS-800 Series boards are shipped with interrupts disabled. If you want
to use interrupts, you must set an appropriate interrupt level using jumper
block J1.
Notes:
DriverLINX modes specify preferred hardware data transfer
techniques: Foreground or synchronous modes, Background or
asynchronous modes. DriverLINX supports three modes with the
DAS-800 Series for its commands: Polled mode, Interrupt mode, and
Other mode. Refer to the
Using DriverLINX with Your Hardware—
Keithley DAS-800 manual
.
If you intend to acquire data in the background, you must enable
interrupts by setting an interrupt level.
