Output Set Test
The output set test checks whether logic levels measured at all 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 suitable accessory and cable for the board being tested.
2. Turn OFF the host computer.
3. Connect the cable and accessory to your board.
4. Turn ON the host computer and boot Windows 95/98/NT.
5. Click the Windows 95/98/NT
Start
tab.
6. Start the AIO Panel as follows:
a.
In the
Start
menu, click
Programs
.
b.
Find the
DriverLINX
➧
Test Panels
folder, under which you
should find the
AIO Panel
entry.
c.
Click on the
AIO Panel
entry. The
Analog I/O Panel
should
appear, similar to the example in Figure 3-7. (If you have other
DriverLINX devices installed in addition to the digital
input/output card you are testing, they will also be listed. In that
case, select the desired digital I/O card and the proper device
number before proceeding.)
