Signal Connections
This chapter describes how to make input and output signal connections
to your PCI-MIO E Series board via the board I/O connector.
The I/O connector for the PCI-MIO-16E-1, PCI-MIO-16E-4,
PCI-MIO-16XE-10, and PCI-MIO-16XE-50 has 68 pins that you can
connect to 68-pin accessories with the SH6868 shielded cable or the
R6868 ribbon cable. With the SH6850 shielded cable or R6850 ribbon
cable, you can connect your board to 50-pin signal conditioning
modules and terminal blocks.
I/O Connector
Figure 4-1 shows the pin assignments for the 68-pin I/O connector on
the PCI-MIO E Series boards. Refer to Appendix B, Optional Cable
Connector Descriptions, for the pin assignments for the 50-pin
connector. A signal description follows the connector pinouts.
Warning: Connections that exceed any of the maximum ratings of input or output
signals on the PCI-MIO E Series boards can damage the PCI-MIO
E Series board and the computer. Maximum input ratings for each signal
are given in the Protection column of Tables 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3. National
Instruments is
NOT
liable for any damages resulting from such signal
connections.
