2.5 Daughter Boards
2.5.1 OME-DB-1825
The OME-DB-1825 is a daughter board designed for 32-channel AD cards such as
the OME-PCI-1002. Refer to the OME-DB-1825 user manual for details.
37pin cable
2.5.2 OME-DB-8225
The OME-DB-8225 provides a on-board CJC (Cold Junction Compensation)
circuit for thermocouple measurement and a terminal block for easy signal connection.
The CJC is connected to A/D channel_0. The OME-PCI-1002 can connect CON3 direct
to the OME-DB-8225 through a 37-pin D-sub connector. Refer to the OME-DB-8225
user manual for details.
2.5.3 OME-DB-37
The OME-DB-37 is a general purpose daughter board for boards with D-sub 37 pin
connectors. It is designed for easy wiring.
2.5.4 OME-DN-37
The OME-DN-37 is a DIN rail mount general purpose daughter board for boards with
D-sub 37 pin connectors. It is designed for easy wiring.

2.5.5 OME-DB-16P Isolated Input Board
The OME-DB-16P is a 16-channel isolated digital input daughter board. The
optically isolated inputs of the OME-DB-16P consist of a bi-directional optocoupler with
a resistor for current sensing. You can use the OME-DB-16P to sense DC signal from
TTL levels up to 24V or use the OME-DB-16P to sense a wide range of AC signals. You
can use this board to isolate the computer from large common-mode voltage, ground
loops and transient voltage spike that often occur in industrial environments.

2.5.6 OME-DB-16R Relay Board
The OME-DB-16R, 16-channel relay output board consists of 16 form C relays that
can be switched under program control. Applying 5 volts to the appropriate relay channel
through the 20-pin flat connector can energize the relays. Each relay has its own LED that
will light when the relay is energized. To avoid overloading your PC’s power supply, the
board provides screw terminals for external power.
Note: Channel: 16 Form C Relay
Relay: Switching up to 0.5A at 110ACV or 1A at 24 DCV

2.6 Analog Input Signal Connection
The OME-PCI-1002 can measure signals in the single-ended or differential mode.
In the differential mode each channel has a unique signal HIGH and signal LOW
connection. In the single-ended mode all channels have a unique signal HIGH connection
but share a common LOW or ground connection. Differential connections are very useful
for low level signals (millivolt), since they better reject electrical noise that can affect the
quality of the measurement. A differential connection is also necessary when a common
ground is unacceptable. The benefit of using a single-ended connection is that twice the
number of channels is available. In general, a single-ended connection is often a good
choice when working with higher level signals (5V or 10V for example), especially if the
signal is coming from an isolated device such as a signal conditioner. Several different
types of wiring diagrams are discussed below.
Figure 2-3A shows a differential connection to a grounded source. If the source is
grounded, making a second connection to the card’s ground could cause a ground loop
resulting in erroneous data. It is important to note that the maximum common mode
voltage between the input source and AGND is 70Vp-p. If the card is connected to a
source with a common mode voltage greater than 70Vp-p, the input multiplexer will
be permanently damaged! When measuring common mode voltage, it is best to use an
oscilloscope rather than a multi-meter.
Figure 2-3B shows a differential connection to a floating source. In such cases a
connection should be made between the low channel input and analog ground.
Figure 2-4 shows connection of multiple sources in single-ended mode. This
connection assumes creating one common ground will not cause a problem. This is
normally the case when connecting to devices that are isolated or floating.
Figure 2-5 demonstrates how to connect bridge transducers. Bridge transducers
include strain gauges, load cells and certain type of pressure transducers. The diagram
assumes that there is a single external power supply providing power to the bridge. Each
bridge is connected to a differential channel. No connection is made between channel
low and analog ground. A connection should be made between analog ground and the
negative of the power supply. An isolated power supply is strongly suggested.
Figure 2-6 demonstrates how to connect a 4-20mA current loop. Since the card
reads voltages, the current is converted to voltage by passing it through a shunt resistor.
By Ohms law (V=IR), when using a 250Ω resistor, 4 mA will be converted to 1V and
20mA to 5V. If the source is linear, the output voltage range will also be linear.

If the source is grounded, a second ground connection
on the card could result in a ground loop.

6. Diagnostic Program
6.1 Power-ON Plug & Play Test
Below are the steps for the power-on Plug & Play test:
Step 1: Power-off the PC
Step 2: Install OME-PCI-1002 without any extra external connections
Step 3: Power-on the PC and watch the PC screen very carefully
Step 4: The PC will perform its self-test first
Step 5: The PC will detect the non-PCI physical devices installed in the system
Step 6: The PC will display the information for these devices
Step 7: The PC will detect the PCI Plug & Play devices installed in the system
All PCI-device information will be shown Æ pay careful attention
Æ There will be a PCI device with vendor_ID=1234, device_ID=1002 (OME-PCI-
1002)
If the Plug & Play ROM-BIOS successfully detects the OME-PCI-1002 card during
the power-on state, the DOS and Windows software driver will also be able to detect the
card. If the Plug & Play ROM-BIOS can not find the OME-PCI-1002, the software driver
will not function. Therefore the user must make sure that the power-on detection is
correct.
6.2 Driver Plug & Play Test
Step 1: Power-off the PC.
Step 2: Install OME-PCI-1002 without any extra external connector.
Step 3: Power-on PC and run DEMO7.EXE.
Step 4: The I/O base address of all OME-PCI-1002 cards installed in the system will be
displayed.
Step 5: Verify that the total number of boards is correct
Step 6: If more than one card, install a 20-pin flat cable on one of the OME-PCI-1002
45

cards.
Step 7: If a card’s D/O=D/I Æ this is the physical card number, remember this number.
Step 8: Repeat the previous two steps to find the physical card number of all boards.
6.3 D I/O Test
Step 1: Power-off the PC.
Step 2: Install one OME-PCI-1002 card with a 20-pin flat cable between CON1 & CON2.
Step 3: Power-on the PC then run DEMO2.EXE.
