paragraphs. Also, the method to update D/A outputs is programmable as described here and in
Chapter 5, “Programming”.

Output Ranges
There is a three-position slide switch associated with each DAC channel to make voltage range
selection: switches S1 (Channel 0) through S16 (Channel 15). A silk-screen diagram on the card
defines switch positions to use for each range. In addition to the switch, one jumper per channel
is used to select voltage vs current output. The following table presents the same information:
Voltage Range S1 S2 S3 JP1-16
0 to +2.5V Off Off On Set in

0 to +5V Off Off Off
0 to +10V Off On On
-2.5V to +2.5V On Off Off
