Signal Connections
This chapter provides useful informa­tion about how to connect input and output signals to the PCL-722 via the I/O connector.
Sections include:
• Overview
• Switch & Jumper Settings
• Signal Connections

Chapter 3 Signal Connections

3.1 Overview

Maintaining signal connections is one of the most important factors in ensuring that your application system is sending and receiving data cor­rectly. A good signal connection can avoid unnecessary and costly dam­age to your PC and other hardware devices. This chapter provides useful information on how to connect input and output signals to the PCL-722 via the I/O connector.

3.2 Switch & Jumper Settings

The PCL-722 card has two function jumper settings.

PCL-722 User Manual 14

3.2.1 Base Address Selection

The PCL-722 requires 32 consecutive address locations within the I/O space. Some I/O address locations will be occupied by internal I/O and your peripherals. In order to avoid conflict with these devices, the PCL-722 address can be set by a 6 position DIP switch and placed anywhere in the IBM PC decoded external UO space.
The 200-3FF hex (512-1023 decimal) address range provides extensive unused areas of I/O space, though you should check with the IBM Standard Technical Reference Manual for possible conflicts with commonly installed peripherals.

3.2.2 96/144-bit Mode Setting

The PCL-722 can limit the 32 required addresses to 16, there­fore, the digital I/O is limited to 96 bits. SW2 (see Fig. 3.2 below) sets the number of usable I/O. The PCL-722 card should be left in the 144 bit mode unless this address con­flicts with the addresses of other peripherals already installed or those to be installed in neighbouring slots.
Figure 3.2: Select 144 or 96 I/O
By selecting 96 bit mode, two or more boards can be mapped consecutively on adjacent addresses. By selecting 144 bit mode, a minimum gap of 8 addresses will exist between each board. The following address list provides examples of multi­ple board addressing with consecutive addresses. Note that these are not the only addresses available because other com­binations can be used.
Board 1 Board 2
200-20F 210-21F
230-23F 240-24F
250-25F 260-26F
Note: In 144 bit mode, base address line A4 is not in functional
status, therefore, A4 of SW1 does not need to be set.
The following base addresses are available:
200,220,240,260,280,2A0,2C0,2E0
300,320,340,360,380,3A0,3C0,3E0
The following base addresses are illegal:
210,230,250,270,290,2B0,2D0,2F0
310,330,350,370,390,3B0,3D0,3F0
PCL-722 User Manual 16
You can set the address according to the information given in Table 3.1.

3.2.3 Interrupt Settings

Pins PC-0 and PC-3 of each channel of the PCL-722 generate hardware interrupts and can be set to any of the interrupt request lines IRQ2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
The IRQ signal is TRI-STATED allowing multiple PCL-722 boards to share the same interrupt line. For example, two PCL-722 boards in a system can have IRQ2 selected.
The following diagram shows the locations of interrupt enable selection jumpers (J0 ~ J5).
Figure 3.3: Interrupt Enable Selection
The interrupt channels setting (J6):
17 Chapter 3

3.3 Signal Connections

The PCL-722 card emulates MODE 0 of 8255 PPI, and is pin compatible with popular industrial solid state I/O racks and modules such as those manufactured by OPTO-22, Potter Brumfield, Gordos, and others.
The PCL-722 has six 50-pin male IDC connectors that inter­face with position OPTO-22 racks 8, 16 and 24.
Two of the I/O lines (PC-0, PC-3) of each channel can be used to generate a hardware interrupt.
Note: The PCL-722 emulates MODE 0 of 8255 PPI, therefore, it
is in effect the same as a 8255 controller card and all packages or programs that support the 8255 in MODE 0 can be used on PCL-722 without reconfiguring software.

3.3.1 Configuration

Mode 0 of 8255 provides simple input and output for each of the three ports and no handshaking is required as data is writ­ten directly to or read from a specified port (see 8255 MODE 0 Function Definitions).
Read-back is another useful function of the PCL-722 and this allows the user to monitor each output port of each channel.
8255 MODE 0 FUNCTION DEFINITIONS
- Two 8-bit ports (Port A, Port B)
- Two 4-bit ports (Port C upper, Port C lower)
- Any port can be used for input or output
- Outputs are latched whereas inputs are not latched
- 16 different input/output configurations are available in this mode.

The PCL-722 has two lines (PC-0, PC-3) for each channel to generate hardware interrupt.
The interrupts are edge-triggered. PC-0 traps a rising edge signal, while PC-3 traps a falling edge signal. To use the interrupts, simply insert the appropriate IRQ jumper to select the desired interrupt level (IRQ 2-7).
To determine which input generated the interrupt, read Port C lower, bits 0 and 3, to locate the current state of inputs. Note that the inputs are not latched and no “first event” trapping is provided to determine which input was active first.
The user can select which channel is to be interrupt enable by setting interrupt enable jumpers J0, J1, J2, J3, J4 and J5. Refer to the table below:
NO INTERRUPT REQUEST
BUS STATUS
PC-0 PC-3
H X NO INTERRUPT REQUEST
L H->L INTERRUPT REQUEST
X L NO INTERRUPT REQUEST
L->H H INTERRUPT REQUEST
RESPONSE
21 Chapter 3
Note: In the event that an interrupt signal is generated from a
rising-edge or a falling-edge change, and if additional interrupt signals are still to be inputted, the bit-status must be reset to its original station, i.e. PC-0 should be set at 0 and PC-3 should be set at 1 before such signals can be inputted. For example, lxx0 (1000, 1010, 1100, 1110)
Although interrupt signals are normally received from external peripherals, the PCL-722 can also execute a (test) output signal to simulate an interrupt being inputted from an external device. See the example in Appendix.
