Introduction and Installation

Introduction

Overview

The OMG-PCI-DIO96 provides twelve eight-bit ports compatible with 8255
mode 0. Each port may be individually configured as inputs or outputs.

What’s Included

The OMG-PCI -DIO96 is shipped with the following items. If any of these items
is missing or damaged, contact the supplier.

• OMG-PCI-DIO96 Adapter

• Software CD

Industry Standard Relay Rack Cables and options are available:

• Part number CA135 for Edge Connection

• Part number CA167 for IDC Connection

• Part number TB07-50 pin terminal block

Installation

Card Setup

The OMG-PCI -DIO96 is a fully compliant PCI ‘Plug and Play’ adapter. All card
resources (i.e. I/O address, IRQ selection) are auto-assigned by either your
system BIOS or your ‘Plug and Play’ operating system.

Software Installation

For proper operation install software first. To install the software place the CD in
your CD-ROM tray and the auto-run program will start. If auto-run is not
available browse the CD and choose “index.htm”. Choose Install Software at the
beginning of the CD. Select the Digital I/O software drivers and install SeaIO
prior to installing hardware.

Linux Users

Refer to the installation instructions at the beginning of the CD for details on
installing digital I/O cards in Linux.

Technical Description

Technical Description

The OMG-PCI -DIO96 provides 96 channels of digital I/O configurable as inputs or outputs, which
can be utilized for PC based control and automation including sensors, switches, satellite antenna
control systems, video and audio studio automation, security control systems, and other industrial
automation systems.

Software

The OMG-PCI-DIO96 ships with the SeaI/O suite of Windows 98/NT/ME/2000 drivers. SeaI/O
provides the user with a consistent and straightforward API, allowing the developer to concentrate
on the details of the application as opposed to low level driver development. Popular development
environments, including Visual C++, Visual Basic, and Delphi, are supported for application
development. SeaI/O includes sample applications and a utility for configuring the driver
parameters under Windows, further simplifying installation.

Linux Users

The OMG-PCI-DIO96 ships with software for Linux, including a kernel-mode driver, API, and the
SeaIOTst diagnostic tool. The kernel-mode driver is provided as a module, so future driver
upgrades may be performed with minimal (usually zero) downtime. The Linux API is identical to its
Windows counterpart, facilitating quick and easy ports of existing SeaI/O -aware applications to the
Linux operating system. All source code for the Linux software suite is provided under the GNU
Public License (GPL v2.0), to assist in "roll-your-own"-type applications.

Technical Description

Pull Ups

Ten pin bussed resistor packs are installed to provide pull-ups to the input ports. These are
installed on all ports. The pull-up resistor packs are rated at 10K ohms. Figure 2 below provides the
bussed resistor and corresponding port. The resistors insure that no line is floating which is not
connected. This provides consistent biasing on all un-terminated lines.

Application Programmers Interface (API)

Most modern operating systems do not allow direct hardware access. The SeaIO driver and API
have been included to provide control over the hardware in Windows and Linux environments.
The purpose of this section of the manual is to help the customer with the mapping of the API to
the actual inputs for the OMG-PCI -DIO96 specifically. Complete documentation of the API can be
found in its accompanying help file.

Presetting an Output Port:

Each port has an output register associated with it. This register may be written and retains its
value whether the port is configured as an input or an output. To preset the value of an output port
the program should write to the port when it is configured as an input then configure it as an
output. Inputs cannot be written to with relative addressing, absolute addressing must be used.
See Relative Addressing vs. Absolute Addressing below.

Interrupts:

Interrupt sampling can be set up in the API. Port A1 bit zero is the interrupt source (pin 47) . Refer
to the API section in the SeaI/O help file for more detailed information.

Port Configuration:

Each eight-bit port can be configured as inputs or outputs. The API provides a set adapter state
call to access the control words. For this device, four control word is used. Refer to the following
table.

Note: The control panel also allows you to configure the device. Your program can over ride the
control panel configuration when executed, but the control panel configuration will be the default
on powe r up. The default settings are based on the settings in the control panel application when
last changed and saved after re-booting.

Programming

Relative Addressing vs. Absolute Addressing

The SeaIO API makes a distinction between “absolute” and “relative” addressing modes. In
absolute addressing mode, the Port argument to the API function acts as a simple byte offset from
the base I/O address of the device. For instance, Port #0 refers to the I/O address base + 0; Port #1
refers to the I/O address base + 1.
Relative addressing mode, on the other hand, refers to input and output ports in a logical fashion.
With a Port argument of 0 and an API function meant to output data, the first (0
the device will be utilized. Likewise, with a Port argument of 0 and an API function designed to
input data, the first (0

th

) input port of the device will be utilized.
In all addressing modes, port numbers are zero -indexed; that is, the first port is port #0, the second
port is #1, the third #2, and so on.

Direct Hardware Control

In systems where the users program has direct access to the hardware (DOS) the tables below
gives the mapping and functions that the OMG-PCI -DIO96 provide. The address of each eight-bit
port is calculated as shown in the table on the following page, the cards base address plus an
offset.

Reading the Inputs:

The inputs are active high. If an input is driven high (2V to 5.25 V) it will read as a logical one, if
driven low (0V to 0.8V) it will read as a logical zero. If an input is not driven it will read as a one due
to the 10K ohm pull up resistors on each port.

Reading the Outputs:

The value that is currently being used to drive the outputs will be returned.

Presetting an Output Port:

Each port has an output register associated with it. This register may be written and retains its
value whether the port is configured as an input or an output. To preset the value of an output port
the program should write to the port when it is configured as an input then configure it as an
output.

Writing the Outputs:

The outputs are active high. Writing a one (1) corresponds to 5V while writing a zero (0)
corresponds to 0V, at the output.

Port Configuration:

Each port can be configured as an input or an output by writing to its direction control bit, refer to
the tables below.

Interrupts

Interrupts can be set up as shown in the tables below.
