Using the DAS-1700 Series with DriverLINX
Keithley DAS-1700 Series
Digital Output Start Events
Start Events specify when the DAS-1700 Series hardware starts writing digital output
data.
The DAS-1700 Series supports the following Start Events for digital output:
•
None—Use this event when the DriverLINX operation doesn’t require
a Start Event.
•
Command—DriverLINX starts the task on software command, i.e., as
soon as DriverLINX finishes programming the DAS-1700 hardware for
the task.
None or Null Start Event
The Null Event specifies that the task does not need a Start Event to begin the task.
Command Start Event
The Command Event starts data acquisition as soon as DriverLINX has completed
programming the DAS-1700 hardware with the task parameters.
Digital Output Stop Events
Stop Events specify when the DAS-1700 Series hardware stops writing digital output
data.
The DAS-1700 Series supports the following Stop Events for digital output:
•
None—Use this event when the DriverLINX operation doesn’t require
a Stop Event.
•
Terminal count—DriverLINX stops the task after the DAS-1700
Series hardware has written all the data buffers once.
None or Null Stop Event
The Null Event specifies that the task does not need a Stop Event to end the task.
Terminal Count Stop Event
The Terminal Count Event stops data acquisition after DriverLINX has written the
digital output data from all the data buffers once. Use terminal count when you want
to write a fixed amount of data.
Digital Output Channels
The DAS-1700 Series allows applications to specify the digital channels using three
techniques:
•
Start Channel—Acquire data from a single channel.
•
Start/Stop Channel Range—Acquire data from a consecutive range of
channels.
•
Channel List—Acquire data from a list of channels.
