Checking your installation
The ability to start the DriverLINX PIO Control Panel utility, which is available after you install
DriverLINX, verifies that DriverLINX and the board are installed and configured satisfactorily.
You can also test the functions of the PIO-96 board, without needing to write an application pro-
gram, by connecting appropriate digital signals and observing the responses with the Driver-
LINX PIO Control Panel. Before connecting signals, first read the following wiring information.
To access the PIO Control Panel, do the following:
1. Click the Windows 95/98/NT Start tab.
2. In the Start menu, click Programs .
3. Find the DriverLINX
→
Test Panels entry, under which you should find the PIO
Panel entry.
4. Click on the PIO Panel entry. The PIO Control Panel should appear.
5. After you configure and check your installation, continue with the next section, “Wiring to
external circuits.”
NOTE Refer also to the DriverLINX Installation and Configuration Guide and
Using DriverLINX with Your Hardware—Keithley PIO Series manuals.
Wiring to external circuits
CAUTION Make sure power both to the board and to all external circuits is
turned OFF before connecting cables and eternal wiring to your
board. Making connections while the board and/or external circuits
are powered can damage the board, the external circuits, the com-
puter, or all three.
Each 24-bit port on the PIO-96 uses a 50-pin connector as an interface to user circuits. This
connector is compatible with the Keithley CACC-2000 Series cables (or with custom cables
made using a 3M 3425-6050 mating connector) One or more of these should be connected to the
board at this point in your installation. The following subsections describe using a screw
terminal wiring accessory, identifying I/O connector pin numbers, and using board power for
external circuits.
