Getting Started with Your 653X
The 653X User Manual describes installing, configuring, setting up,
and programming applications for your AT-DIO-32HS, DAQCard-6533
for PCMCIA, PCI-6534, PCI-DIO-32HS, PXI-6533, PXI-6534, or
PCI/PXI-7030/6533 device.
653X Device Overview
With 653X devices, you can use your computer or chassis as a digital
I/O tester, logic analyzer, or system controller for laboratory testing,
production testing, and industrial process monitoring and control.
Each 653X device provides 32 digital data lines that are individually
configurable as input or output, grouped into four 8-bit ports. Each line can
sink or source 24 mA of current.
The 6534 devices contain onboard memory, enabling you to transfer data
to/from this memory at a guaranteed rate. This memory feature removes the
dependency on the host computer bus for applications that require
guaranteed transfer rates.
The PCI/PXI-7030/6533 is an RT Series DAQ device that contains a
processor board (7030), a daughter device, and an independent processor
that runs LabVIEW Real-Time applications. The 6533 daughter device
contains all the features and functions of the PCI/PXI-6533 devices
described in this manual. For more information about your
PCI/PXI-7030/6533 device, see the RT Series DAQ Device User Manual.
Detailed 653X device specifications are in Appendix A, Specifications.
Control Lines
In addition to controlling and monitoring relay-type applications, your
device also provides two timing/handshaking controllers for high-speed
data transfer. They are named Group 1 and Group 2. Each group has four
control lines which can be used to time the input/output of data with
hardware precision.
