Output set test
The output set test checks whether logic levels measured at all KPCI-3160 output pins agree
with output bit patterns set by software, using a DriverLINX graphical interface (AIO Panel).
NOTE
This test is performed without user circuits being connected to the
outputs.
Perform the output set test as follows:
1. Ready the following equipment:
•
A digital voltmeter (DVM) or a digital multimeter (DMM) set to measure voltages, or a
logic probe capable of reading TTL logic levels.
•
A CONN-3160-D1 accessory and CAB-1800 cable.
•
A means to reliably and safely connect the DMM/DVM or logic probe input to each
KPCI-3160 I/O point. The following alternatives are suggested, both of which mate with
the CONN-3160-D1 accessory:
–
An STA-50 screw terminal accessory with attached CACC-2000 cable (refer to
“
Using additional accessories
” in
Section 3
).
–
A 50-pin mating connector (3M part no. 3425-6050) with installed ribbon cable,
such that the meter or logic probe can be clipped to exposed conductors at the end of
the cable.
2. Turn OFF the host computer.
3. Connect the CONN-3160-D1 accessory to your KPCI-3160 board. Refer to “
Using a
CONN-3160-D1 accessory
.”
4. Into one of the CONN-3160-D1 50-pin connectors that is designated in
Table 5-5
, insert
either of the following:
•
The CACC-2000 cable that is attached to the STA-50
•
The cabled 50-pin mating connector.
5. Turn ON the host computer and boot Windows 95/98/NT.
6. Click the Windows 95/98/NT Start tab.
