Safety Precautions

The following safety precautions should be observed before using this product and any associated instrumentation. Although some in­struments and accessories would normally be used with non-haz­ardous voltages, there are situations where hazardous conditions may be present.
This product is intended for use by qualified personnel who recog­nize shock hazards and are familiar with the safety precautions re­quired to avoid possible injury. Read the operating information carefully before using the product.
The types of product users are:
Responsible body
and maintenance of equipment, for ensuring that the equipment is operated within its specifications and operating limits, and for en­suring that operators are adequately trained.
Operators
trained in electrical safety procedures and proper use of the instru­ment. They must be protected from electric shock and contact with hazardous live circuits.
Maintenance personnel
to keep it operating, for example, setting the line voltage or replac­ing consumable materials. Maintenance procedures are described in the manual. The procedures explicitly state if the operator may per­form them. Otherwise, they should be performed only by service personnel.
Service personnel
safe installations and repairs of products. Only properly trained ser­vice personnel may perform installation and service procedures.
Keithley products are designed for use with electrical signals that are rated Installation Category I and Installation Category II, as de­scribed in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard IEC 60664. Most measurement, control, and data I/O sig­nals are Installation Category I and must not be directly connected to mains voltage or to voltage sources with high transient over-volt­ages. Installation Category II connections require protection for high transient over-voltages often associated with local AC mains connections. The user should assume all measurement, control, and data I/O connections are for connection to Category I sources un­less otherwise marked or described in the Manual.

Exercise extreme caution when a shock hazard is present. Lethal voltage may be present on cable connector jacks or test fixtures.The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that a shock hazard exists when voltage levels greater than 30V RMS, 42.4V peak, or 60VDC are present.
that hazardous voltage is present in any unknown circuit before measuring.
Users of this product must be protected from electric shock at all times. The responsible body must ensure that users are prevented access and/or insulated from every connection point. In some cases, connections must be exposed to potential human contact. Product users in these circumstances must be trained to protect themselves from the risk of electric shock. If the circuit is capable of operating at or above 1000 volts,
exposed.
Do not connect switching cards directly to unlimited power circuits. They are intended to be used with impedance limited sources. NEVER connect switching cards directly to AC mains. When con­necting sources to switching cards, install protective devices to lim­it fault current and voltage to the card.
Before operating an instrument, make sure the line cord is connect­ed to a properly grounded power receptacle. Inspect the connecting cables, test leads, and jumpers for possible wear, cracks, or breaks before each use.
When installing equipment where access to the main power cord is restricted, such as rack mounting, a separate main input power dis­connect device must be provided, in close proximity to the equip­ment and within easy reach of the operator.
For maximum safety, do not touch the product, test cables, or any other instruments while power is applied to the circuit under test. ALWAYS remove power from the entire test system and discharge any capacitors before: connecting or disconnecting cables or jump­ers, installing or removing switching cards, or making internal changes, such as installing or removing jumpers.
Do not touch any object that could provide a current path to the com­mon side of the circuit under test or power line (earth) ground. Always make measurements with dry hands while standing on a dry, insulated surface capable of withstanding the voltage being measured.
A good safety practice is to expect
no conductive part of the circuit may be
The instrument and accessories must be used in accordance with its specifications and operating instructions or the safety of the equip­ment may be impaired.
Do not exceed the maximum signal levels of the instruments and ac­cessories, as defined in the specifications and operating informa­tion, and as shown on the instrument or test fixture panels, or switching card.
When fuses are used in a product, replace with same type and rating for continued protection against fire hazard
Chassis connections must only be used as shield connections for measuring circuits, NOT as safety earth ground connections.
If you are using a test fixture, keep the lid closed while power is ap­plied to the device under test. Safe operation requires the use of a lid interlock.
If a screw is present, connect it to safety earth ground using the wire recommended in the user documentation.
!
The symbol on an instrument indicates that the user should re­fer to the operating instructions located in the manual.
The symbol on an instrument shows that it can source or mea­sure 1000 volts or more, including the combined effect of normal and common mode voltages. Use standard safety precautions to avoid personal contact with these voltages.
The
WARNING
result in personal injury or death. Always read the associated infor­mation very carefully before performing the indicated procedure.
The
CAUTION
damage the instrument. Such damage may invalidate the warranty.
Instrumentation and accessories shall not be connected to humans.
Before performing any maintenance, disconnect the line cord and all test cables.
To maintain protection from electric shock and fire, replacement components in mains circuits, including the power transformer, test leads, and input jacks, must be purchased from Keithley Instru­ments. Standard fuses, with applicable national safety approvals, may be used if the rating and type are the same. Other components that are not safety related may be purchased from other suppliers as long as they are equivalent to the original component. (Note that se­lected parts should be purchased only through Keithley Instruments to maintain accuracy and functionality of the product.) If you are unsure about the applicability of a replacement component, call a Keithley Instruments office for information
To clean an instrument, use a damp cloth or mild, water based cleaner. Clean the exterior of the instrument only. Do not apply cleaner directly to the instrument or allow liquids to enter or spill on the instrument. Products that consist of a circuit board with no case or chassis (e.g., data acquisition board for installation into a computer) should never require cleaning if handled according to in­structions. If the board becomes contaminated and operation is af­fected, the board should be returned to the factory for proper cleaning/servicing.

Digital I/O Configuration

1.1 Introduction

This section covers the basic digital input and output config urations for the Model 7020. Connection information for these configurations is provided in Section 2 of this manual, while operation (front panel and IEEE-488 bus) is explained in Section 3.

1.2 Digital outputs

Output channels use negative true logic. That is, the output is pulled low when the channel is turned on (closed). Conversely, the output goes high when the channel is turned off (open).

1.3 Controlling pull-up devices

Typically, the digital outputs are used to provide drive for relatively high current devices such as solenoids, relays and small motors. The configurations for these applications are shown in Figure 1-1. Figure 1-1A uses the internal voltage source (5.3V), while Figure 1-1B allows you to use an external voltage source (V) for devices that require a higher voltage (25V maximum). Internal jumpers are used to select the voltage source. At the factory, the internal 5.3V source is selected.
As shown in Figure 1-1, each output channel has a resettable fuse (F) that is used to protect the output driver from exces­sive current. During normal operation, the resettable fuse is in a low resistance state like a regular fuse. When output cur­rent reaches the trip level (around 180mA at 23°C, 130mA at 50°C), the fuse goes to a high resistance state that interrupts the damaging high current. The fuse will automatically reset to the low resistance state when the fault condition is re­moved.
Each output channel uses a fly-back diode for protection when switching an inductive device, such as a solenoid coil. This diode diverts the potentially damaging fly-back voltage away from the driver.

1.4 Controlling devices using pull-up resistors

When interfacing outputs to high-impedance devices (i.e. logic devices), pull-up resistors are used to achieve the ap­propriate logic level. Figure 1-2 shows the output configura tion using the 10k pull-up resistor (R
The configuration in Figure 1-2 uses the internal 5.3V source as the high logic level. Notice that the 5.3V source is also used to power the device. If you need a higher logic level, you can place the jumper in the alternate position and apply an external voltage (via V
EXT1
or V
EXT2
).
P
).

1.5 Digital inputs

Input channels use positive true logic. A channel is on (closed) when the input is high (up to 42V peak). Conversely, a channel is off (open) when the input is pulled low. As shown in Figure 1-3, each channel uses a 10k pull-up resis­tor (R
) that is connected to 5V. Thus, with nothing connect-
1
ed to the channel, the input is pulled high to 5V which turns the channel on (closed).
The digital input is compatible with external TTL logic. Each built-in pull-up resistor provides level shifting so that devices such as micro-switches can be monitored. Each input has a protection network that clamps the input at 5.7V. This allows logic levels up to 42V peak to be monitored.

Card Connections and Installation

2.1 Introduction

WARNING
The following connection and installa­tion procedures are to be performed by qualified service personnel. Failure to recognize and observe standard safety precautions could result in personal in­jury or death.
NOTE
All input and output channels are electri­cally isolated from the backplane of the mainframe.

2.2 Internal connections

NOTE
All internal connections are for the digital outputs. No internal connections are re­quired for reading digital input channels.

2.3 V oltage source jumpers

Digital output high can be supplied by the internal 5.3V volt­age source, or by a user supplied voltage. At the factory, in­ternal jumpers are set to use the internal 5.3V source.
The 40 output channels are divided up into fi e banks (eight output channels per bank) as shown in Figure 2-1. For each bank, there is a plug-in jumper that allows you to select the internal 5.3V source or an external source. In Figure 2-1, Banks B, C and D use the 5.3V source, while Banks A and E use an external source.
The I/O card can accommodate two different external volt­age sources (V er W105 (see Figure 2-1). With W105 removed, the external voltage source (V isolated from the external voltage source (V D and E.
The voltage source jumpers are located on the scanner board as shown in Figure 2-2. Figure 2-3 shows how the plug-in jumpers (W100 through W104) are installed.

The Model 7020 is made up of two PC-boards that plug to­gether and are secured together by a 4-40 screw. To gain ac­cess to internal connections, remove the screw and carefully separate the two boards. The board with the 96-pin DIN con­nector is called the mass terminal board, and the board with the majority of components is called the scanner board.

2.4 Pull-up resistors

When interfacing outputs to high-impedance devices (i.e. logic devices), pull-up resistors are used to achieve the ap­propriate logic level. These resistors are installed at the fac­tory. When interfacing digital output channels to pull-up devices, such as solenoid coils and motors, the pull-up resis­tors for those channels have to be removed.
The 40 output channels are divided up into fi e banks (eight output channels per bank). Each output bank has a 16-pin DIP socket that is used for a thick film resistor network. Each thick film resistor network has eight resistors to accommo­date the eight output channels. Thus, when you remove a re­sistor network, you remove the pull-up resistors for eight output channels.
The resistor networks (R180 through R181) are located on the scanner board (see Figure 2-2). To remove a resistor net­work, use a thin-bladed screwdriver and carefully pry the chip out of the socket. Pull-up resistors should be replaced with same value and wattage only.

2.5 Card installation

Perform the following steps to install the card assembly in the Model 7001 or 7002 mainframe:
WARNING
T urn off power from all instrumentation (including the Model 7001 or 7002 mainframe) and disconnect their line cords. Make sure all power is removed and any stored energy in external cir­cuitry is discharged.
1. Mate the mass terminal board to the scanner board if they are separated. Install the supplied 4-40 screw at the end of the card to secure the assembly. Make sure to handle the cards by the edges and shields to prevent contamination.
2. Facing the rear panel of the mainframe, select the slot that you wish to install the card in.
3. Feed the I/O card assembly into the desired slot such that the edges of the relay card ride in the rails.
4. With the ejector arms in the unlocked position, push the card assembly all the way into the mainframe until the arms engage into the ejector cups. Then push both arms inward to lock the card into the mainframe. Figure 2-4 shows how the card installs in the Model 7001.

Typical round cable connection techniques
Connections are accomplished using a custom-built cable as­sembly that consists of a Model 7011-KIT-R connector and a suitable round cable. Hitachi cable part number N2807-P/ D-50TAB is a 50-conductor cable. Two of these cables can be used to supply 100 conductors. The connector has solder cups to accommodate the individual wires of the unterminat­ed cable. Figure 2-7 provides an exploded view of the con­nector assembly and shows how the cable is connected. The connector end of the resultant cable assembly mates directly to the connector on the digital I/O card. The unterminated end of the cable assembly can be wired directly to external circuitry.
Also included in Table 2-5 is a male DIN bulkhead connector (Model 7011-MTR). This connector has solder cups to allow direct connection to external circuitry. The bulkhead connector can then be connected to the digital I/O card via a custom-built cable assembly using two Model 7011-KIT-R connectors. Figure 2-8 provides the pinout for the bulkhead connector.

The logic device is a demultiplexer (DMUX). The binary pattern (value) seen at the input of the DMUX (lines A, B and C) determines which DMUX output line (Y0 through Y7) is selected (pulled low). For example, with channels 25, 26 and 27 off (open), lines A, B and C are high. The binary 7 at the DMUX input (A = 1, B = 1 and C = 1) selects (pulls low) out­put Y7. If channel 26 is turned on (closed), line B goes low. The binary 5 seen at the DMUX input (1, 0, 1) selects (pulls low) Y5.
NOTE
With jumper W105 removed, all of the above output connection schemes could be used at the same time (assuming that cur­rent sink limits are not exceeded). Remov­ing jumper W105 allows you to use two different external voltage sources (V and V

Operation

3.1 Introduction

The information in this section is organized as follows:
• Power limits — Covers the maximum power limits of the Model 7020 Digital I/O Interface Card.
• Channel status display — Summarizes how the main­frame display is used to provide status of input and out­put channels.
• Channel assignments — Reviews how I/O card chan­nels and mainframe slots are designated for channel and scan lists.
• Controlling output channels — Explains how to open/ close and scan output channels from the front panel.
• Reading input channels — Explains how to read input channels from the front panel.
• IEEE-488 bus operation — Summarizes the commands used to control output channels and read input channels from over the IEEE-488 bus.
The following information pertains to the Model 7020 Digi­tal I/O Interface card. It assumes that you are familiar with the operation of the Model 7001/7002 mainframe.
If you are not familiar with the operation of the mainframe, refer to the Model 7001 or 7002 Instruction Manual after reading the following information.
Output channels:
Maximum User Supplied Pull-Up Voltage: 25V.
Maximum Sink Current:
Per channel: 65mA
Per bank: 500mA (see note).
Per card: 1A.
NOTE
A bank refers to the internal IC that is used to drive eight output channels. The card uses fi e driver ICs (banks) to accommo­date the 40 output channels. The channels are grouped as follows for each bank:
Bank 1 = Channels 1 through 8
Bank 2 = Channels 9 through 16
Bank 3 = Channels 17 through 24
Bank 4 = Channels 25 through 32
Bank 5 = Channels 33 through 40
As specified, the maximum output current for each 8-bit bank (i.e. channels 1 through 8) is 500mA.
Input channels:
Maximum Voltage Level: 42V peak.

3.2 Power limits

To ensure proper operation and prevent damage to the card, never exceed the following power limits.

3.3 Channel status display

The Model 7001 has a channel status display (Figure 3-1) that provides the real-time state of each input or output chan­nel. The left portion of the display is for slot 1 (Card 1), and

the right portion is for slot 2 (Card 2). For the Model 7002, channel status LED grids are used for the 10 slots. The LED grid for slot 1 is shown in Figure 3-2.
Input/output channel organization of the channel status display for each slot is shown in Figure 3-3. The card contains 40 independent input channels and 40 independent output channels. All input and output channels are isolated from the backplane of the mainframe. With the mainframe in the normal display state, the status (on or off) of the output channels is displayed. When the mainframe is in the read input channels mode, the status (on or off) of the input channels is displayed.
Output channels use negative true logic. That is, the output is pulled low when the channel is turned on (closed). Conversely, the output goes high when the channel is turned off (open).
Input channels use positive true logic. A channel is on (closed) when the input is high. Keep in mind that an open input is pulled high by the internal pull-up resistor. Con­versely, a channel is off (open) when the input is pulled low to ground.

3.4 Channel assignments

Each input and output channel has a CHANNEL assignment, which includes the slot number that the card is installed in. Figure 3-4 shows the CHANNEL assignments for slots 1 and
2. Each CHANNEL assignment is made up of the slot desig­nator (1 or 2) and the channel (1 to 40). For the Model 7002, the slot designator can be from 1 to 10 since there are 10 slots.
To be consistent with Model 7001/7002 operation, the slot designator and channel are separated by an exclamation point (!). Some examples of CHANNEL assignments are as follows:
CHANNEL 1!1 = Slot 1, Channel 1
CHANNEL 2!40 = Slot 2, Channel 40
CHANNEL 6!23 = Slot 6, Channel 23

3.5 Controlling output channels

Output channels are displayed and controlled from the nor­mal display state of the Model 7001 or 7002. If currently in a menu structure, use the EXIT key to return to the normal display state.

3.6 Turning output channels On and Off

An output channel is turned on by simply keying in the CHANNEL assignment and pressing CLOSE. When a chan­nel is on (closed), ~0V is seen at the output (negative true logic). For example, to turn on output channel 36 of an I/O card installed in slot 2, key in the following channel list and press CLOSE:
SELECT CHANNELS 2!36
The above channel can be turned off by pressing OPEN or OPEN ALL. The OPEN key turns off only the channels specified in the channel list, and OPEN ALL turns off all channels.
The following display is an example of a channel list that consists of several channels:
SELECT CHANNELS 2!1, 2!3, 2!22-2!25
Notice that channel entries are separated by commas (,). A comma is inserted by pressing ENTER or the right cursor key. The channel range is specified by using the hyphen (-) key to separate the range limits. Pressing CLOSE will turn on all the channels specified in the channel list. Pressing OPEN (or OPEN ALL) will turn off the channels.
Channel patterns can also be used in a channel list. This allows you control specific bit patterns for logic circuits. Example:
SELECT CHANNELS 2!1, M1
Pressing CLOSE will turn on channel 2!1 and the channels that make up channel pattern M1. Refer to the instruction manual for the mainframe for information on defining chan­nel patterns.
Note that for the Model 7002 mainframe, you can use the light pen to turn output channels on and off.
3-3
Operation

3.7 Scanning output channels

Output channels are scanned by creating a scan list and con­figuring the Model 7001/7002 to perform a scan. The scan list is created in the same manner as a channel list (see Turn­ing Output Channels On and Off). However, the scan list is specified from the “SCAN CHANNELS” display mode. The SCAN LIST key toggles between the channel list and the scan list. The following shows an example of a scan list:
SCAN CHANNELS 2!1, 2!3, 2!21-2!25
When a scan is performed, the channels specified in the scan list will be scanned in the order that they are presented in the scan list.
Channel patterns can also be used in a scan list. This allows you control specific bit patterns for logic circuits. Example:
SCAN CHANNELS M1, M2, M3, M4
When M1 is scanned, the channels that make up channel pat­tern M1 will turn on. When M2 is scanned, the M1 channels will turn off and the channels that make up M2 will turn on. M3 and M4 are scanned in a similar manner. Refer to the in­struction manual for the mainframe for information on defin ing channel patterns.
Perform the following steps to configure the mainframe to display the digital input channels:
1. Press the CARD CONFIGURATION key to display the CARD CONFIG MENU.
2. Use the and keys to place the cursor on READ-I/ O-CARD and press ENTER.
Model 7001 Mainframe — The real-time state (on or off) of each input channel is provided on the display. Only I/O card channels are displayed.
Model 7002 Mainframe — The real-time state (on or off) of each channel is provided by the appropriate LED display grid. Use the TYPE option of the CARD CON­FIG MENU if you don't know which slot the I/O card is installed in.
3. Use the EXIT key to exit from the “read input channels” display mode.
NOTE
With input channels displayed, you can turn off (open) all output channels by pressing OPEN ALL.
A manual scan can be performed by using the RESET de­fault conditions of the Model 7001/7002. RESET is selected from the SAVESETUP menu of the main MENU. When RE­SET is performed, the mainframe is configured for an infinit number of manual scans. The first press of STEP takes the mainframe out of the idle state. The next press of STEP will close the first channel specified in the scan list. Each subse­quent press of STEP will select the next channel in the scan list.

3.8 Reading input channels

Input channels are read from the READ-I/O-CARD option of the CARD CONFIG MENU of the mainframe. This menu is accessed by pressing the CARD key. In this “read input channels” display mode, the mainframe displays the real­time state of each input channel.
Input channels use positive true logic. A channel is on (closed) when the input is high. Keep in mind that an open input is pulled high by the internal pull-up resistor. Con­versely, a channel is off (open) when the input is pulled low to ground.

3.9 IEEE-488 bus operation

Bus operation is demonstrated using Microsoft QuickBASIC
4.5, the Keithley KPC-488.2 (or Capital Equipment Corpo­ration) IEEE interface and the HP-style Universal Language Driver (CECHP). Refer to “QuickBASIC 4.5 Programming” in the mainframe manual for details on installing the Univer­sal Language Driver, opening driver files and setting the in­put terminal. Program statements assume that the primary address of the mainframe is 07.

3.10 Turning output channels On and Off

The following SCPI commands are used to turn output chan­nels on and off:
:CLOSe <list> Turn on specified channel :OPEN <list>|ALL Turn off specified (or all) channels.
The following program statement turns on channels 1!1, 1!4 through 1!6, and the channels that make up channel pattern M1.
PRINT #1, "output 07; clos (@ 1!1, 1!4:1!6, M1)"
3-4
Notice that the colon (:) is used to separate the range limits.
Operation
Either of the following statements turns off channels 1!1, 1!4 through 1!6, and the channels of M1:
PRINT #1, "output 07; open (@ 1!1, 1!4:1!6, M1)" PRINT #1, "output 07; open all"

3.11 Scanning output channels

There are many commands associated with scanning. How­ever, it is possible to configure a scan using as little as four commands. These commands are listed as follows:
*RST :TRIGger:COUNt:AUTo ON :ROUTe:SCAN <list> :INIT
The first command resets the mainframe to a default scan configuration. The second command automatically sets the channel count to the number of channels in the Scan List, the third command defines the Scan List and the fourth com­mand takes the Model 7001/7002 out of the idle state.
The following program fragment will perform a single scan of output channels 1 through 4 of slot 1, and the channels that make up channel pattern M1:
PRINT #1, "output 07; *rst" PRINT #1, "output 07; trig:coun:auto on" PRINT #1, "output 07; scan (@ 1!1:1!4, M1)" PRINT #1, "output 07; init"
PRINT #1, "output 07; trig:del 0.5"
PRINT #1, "output 07; scan (@ 1!1:1!4, M1)" PRINT #1, "output 07; init"
The first statement opens all channels, and the fourth state­ment sets a 1/2 second delay after each channel closes.

3.12 Reading input channels

The following SCPI commands are used to read the status of input channels:
:SENSe2:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 1 :SENSe3:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 2 :SENSe4:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 3 :SENSe5:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 4 :SENSe6:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 5 :SENSe7:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 6 :SENSe8:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 7 :SENSe9:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 8 :SENSe10:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 9 :SENSe11:DATA? <list> Read input channels; Slot 10
The conventional form for the <list> parameter includes the slot and input channel number. However, for these com­mands you do not need to include the slot number. For exam­ple, you can send either of the following two commands to read input channel 23 in slot 6:
:SENSe7:DATA? (@6!23) or :SENSe7:DATA? (@23)
The first statement selects the *RST default configurationfor the scan. The second statement sets channel count to the scan-list-length (5). The third statement defines the scan list, and the last statement takes the mainframe out of the idle state. The scan is configured to start as soon as the :INIT command is executed.
When the above program fragment is run, the scan will be completed in approximately 30 milliseconds (3msec delay for channel closures and 3msec delay for each open), which is too fast to view from the front panel. An additional relay delay can be added to the program to slow down the scan for viewing. The program is modified by adding a statement to slow down the scan. Also, a statement is added to the begin­ning of the program to ensure that all channels are open be­fore the scan is started. The two additional statements are indicated in bold typeface.
PRINT #1, "output 07; open all"
PRINT #1, "output 07; *rst" PRINT #1, "output 07; trig:coun:auto on"
After the mainframe is addressed to talk, the response mes­sage will indicate the state of each listed input channel. A re­turned “0” indicates that the channel is off (open), and a returned “1” indicates that the channel is on (closed).
The following program fragment reads channel 3 of a digital I/O card installed in slot 1:
PRINT #1, "output 07; sens2:data? (@3)" PRINT #1, "enter 07" LINE INPUT #2, A$ PRINT A$
The first statement reads input channel 3 (slot 1). The second statement addresses the mainframe to talk (sends response message to computer). The third statement reads the re­sponse message and the last statement displays the message (0 or 1) on the computer CRT.
The above program fragment is modified to read all 40 input channels in slot 1 as follows. The modified statement is shown in bold typeface.
3-5
Operation
PRINT #1, "output 07; sens2:data? (@1:40)"
PRINT #1, "enter 07" LINE INPUT #2, A$ PRINT A$
The response message will include a “0” (off) or “1” (on) for
each of the 40 input channels (i.e. “0, 0, 0, 1, 0..... 0, 1”).

Service Information

WARNING
The information in this section is in­tended only for qualified service person­nel. Some of the procedures may expose you to hazardous voltages that could re­sult in personal injury or death. Do not attempt to perform these procedures unless you are qualified to do so.

4.1 Introduction

This section contains information necessary to service the Model 7020 card and is arranged as follows:
• Handling and cleaning: Discusses handling precautions and methods to clean the card should it become contaminated.
• Functionality test: Provides a test procedure to determine if an input or output channel is functioning properly.
• Special handling of static-sensitive Devices: Reviews precautions necessary when handling static-sensitive devices.
• Principles of operation: Briefly discusses circuit operation.
• Troubleshooting: Presents some troubleshooting tips for the Model 7020.

4.2 Handling and cleaning

Care should be taken when handling or servicing the card to prevent possible contamination. The following precautions should be taken when servicing the card.
Handle the card only by the edges and shields. Do not touch any board surfaces or components not associated with the re­pair. Do not touch areas adjacent to electrical contacts.
Should it become necessary to use solder on the circuit board, use an OA-based (organic activated) flux. Remove the flux from the work areas when the repair has been complet­ed. Use pure water along with clean cotton swabs or a clean soft brush to remove the flux.Take care not to spread the flu to other areas of the circuit board. Once the flux has been re­moved, swab only the repaired area with methanol, then blow dry the board with dry nitrogen gas.

4.3 Channel functionality test

An input or output channel can be tested without the use of test equipment.
1. As shown in Figure 4-1, connect the suspect input or output channel to an output or input channel that is known to be functioning properly. Note that for the out­put channel, the pull-up resistor must be installed, and the internal 5.3V supply must be used.
2. From the front panel of the mainframe, turn on (close) the output channel. Verify that the display indicates that the output channel is on (closed). Keep in mind that the output is low when the channel is turned on.

3. Place the mainframe in the “read input channels” dis­play mode by selecting the READ-I/O-CARD option of the CARD COFIGURATION MENU. Verify on the dis­play that the input channel is off (open).
4. On the mainframe, press OPEN ALL to turn off (open) the output channel and verify on the display that the in­put channel turns on (closes).
5. On the mainframe, use the EXIT key to return the instru­ment to the normal display mode and verify on the dis­play that the output channel is off (open).
5. Use only anti-static type de-soldering tools and grounded-tip soldering irons.

4.5 Principles of operation

The following paragraphs discuss the basic operating princi­ples for the Model 7020, and can be used as an aid in trou­bleshooting the card. The schematic drawing of the Scanner card is shown on drawing number 7020-106, located at the end of this Section 5.

4.4 Static-sensitive devices

CMOS and other high-impedance devices are subject to pos­sible static discharge damage because of the high-impedance levels involved. When handling such devices, use the precau­tions listed below.
In order to prevent damage, assume that all parts are static­sensitive.
1. Such devices should be transported and handled only in containers specially designed to prevent or dissipate static build-up. Typically, these devices will be received in anti-static containers made of plastic or foam. Keep these parts in their original containers until ready for in­stallation or use.
2. Remove the devices from their protective containers only at a properly-grounded workstation. Also, ground yourself with an appropriate wrist strap while working with these devices.
3. Handle the devices only by the body; do not touch the pins or terminals.
4. Any printed circuit board into which the device is to be inserted must first be grounded to the bench or table

4.7 ID data circuits

Upon power-up, card identification information from each card is read by the mainframe. This ID data includes such in­formation as card ID, settling time, and channel configura tion information. ID data is contained within an on-card EEPROM (U107). In order to read this information, the se­quence described below is performed on power-up.
4-2
Service Information
F
F
1. The ID DATA line (pin 5 of U107) is set from high to low while the ID CLK line (pin 6 of U107) is held high. This action initiates a start command to the ROM to transmit data serially to the mainframe (Figure 4-3).
2. The mainframe sends the ROM address location to be read over the ID DATA line. The ROM then transmits an acknowledge signal back to the mainframe, and it then transmits data at that location back to the mainframe (Figure 4-4).
3. The mainframe then transmits an acknowledge signal, indicating that it requires more data. The ROM will then sequentially transmit data after each acknowledge sig­nal it receives.
4. Once all data is received, the mainframe sends a stop command, which is a low-to-high transition of the ID DATA line with the ID CLK line held high (see Figure 4-3).
ID CLK
ID DATA

4.8 Output channel control

Digital output channels are controlled by serial data transmitted from the mainframe to the I/O card via the OUTDATA line. A total of fi e bytes (40-bits) are shifted in a serial fashion into latches located in the output channel driver ICs. The serial data is clocked in by the OUTCLK line. As data overfl ws one register, it is fed out the Q’S line of the register down the chain.
Once all fi e bytes have shifted into the card, the STROBE line is set high to latch the output channel information into the Q outputs of the output channel drivers. Note that a chan­nel driver output goes low when it is turned on (closed).

4.9 Input channel control

The mainframe reads digital input channels of the I/O card from a serial, fi e-byte (40-bits) data stream (via INDATA line).
Digital inputs are applied in a parallel fashion to the fi e in­put channel registers (8 channels per register). When the dig­ital inputs are read, the STROBE line goes high to latch the input channel information. The INCLOCK line then clocks out the information as a serial, fi e-byte (40-bits) data stream (via INDATA line) to the mainframe. As data empties from the lead register (U100), it is replaced by data via the Q7 line of the registers down the chain.
Note that a channel is on (closed) when the input is high.

4.10 Power-on safeguard

NOTE
The power-on safeguard circuit discussed below is actually located on the digital board in the mainframe.
A power-on safeguard circuit, made up of a D-type flip-fl and associated components ensures that output channels do not randomly turn on (close) when power is cycled. This cir­cuit disables all output channels during power-up and power­down periods.
The PRESET line on the D-type flip-flo is controlled by the 68302 microprocessor, while the CLK line of the D-type flip-flo is controlled by a VIA port line on the 68302 proces­sor. The Q output of the flip-flo drives each I/O card output channel driver IC enable pin (U109-U113, pin 8).
When the 68302 microprocessor is in the reset mode, the flip-flo PRESET line is held low, and Q out immediately goes high, disabling all output channels (output channel IC enable pins are high). After the reset condition elapses (~200msec), PRESET goes high while Q out stays high. When the first valid STROBE pulse occurs, a low logic level is clocked into the D-type flip-flop setting Q out low and en­abling all output channel drivers simultaneously. Note that Q out stays low, (enabling output channel drivers) until the 68302 processor goes into a reset condition.
