Instructions for use with DAQ6510
Introduction
The Model 7707 32-Channel Digital I/O Module wi th 10-channel Differential Multiplexer offers ten channels
of 2-pole or five channels of 4-pole multiplexer switching that can be configured as two independent banks of
multiplexers. The 7707 also provides 32 digital input/output channels (four 8-bit ports) for I/O control. The 7707
connects to industry standard solid-state relays to switch up to 125 VA.
Figure 1: Model 7707
Item shipped may vary from model pictured here.
The 7707 includes the following features:
300 V, 1 A capacity; 60 W, 125 VA maximum (analog)
33 V, 100 mA capacity (digital)
Digital outputs are short circuit protected
Relay closures stored in onboard memory
The 7707 switching module can be used with the DAQ6510 Data Acquisition and Multimeter System.
If you are using this switching module with the 2700, 2701, and 2750 instruments, please see Model
7707 User's Guide, Keithley Instruments document number PA-770.

Connection inform ation
The 7707 is shipped with plastic connector covers installed on the D-shell connectors. Each cover is
secured to the connector by two screws. After removing a connector cover, retain it and the screws
for future use. Any unused D-shell connector must have the connector cover installed.
The 7707 is supplied with one 50-pin female IDC ribbon cable connector and one 25-pin male IDC ribbon
cable connector. These ribbon cable connectors mate to the D-shell connectors of the switching module.
When using IDC ribbon cable connections on the DB-25 (analog inputs), do not exceed 42 V
on any analog input in the test system (including the front panel inputs of the instrument).
For higher voltage applications (up to 300 V), use wire rated for the application and add
supplementary insulation to the wire harness, as shown in Solder cup cable connections
(on page 13).
The DB-50 connector is used for digital I/O connections. Do not exceed 40 V on any digital
terminal in the test system.
There are two connector kits that have connectors that can be used with the 7707:
Model 7790 ribbon cable adapter kit: Contains one female DB-50, one male DB-50, and one male
DB-25 IDC ribbon cable connector. The female DB-50 and the male DB-25 mate to the D-shell connectors
on the 7707.
Model 7789 50/25-pin solder cup connector kit: Contains one male DB-50 and one male DB-25 solder
cup connector. The male DB-25 mates to the 25-pin D-shell on the 7707.

Simplified schematic
The following figure shows a simplified schematic diagram of the 7707 switching module. As shown, the
7707 has channels that are grouped into two banks of five channels (10 channels total). Backplane isolation is
provided for each bank. The first bank contains channels 1 to 5, while the second bank contains channels 6 to
10. Each channel of the 10-channel multiplexer card is wired with separate inputs for HI/LO, providing fully
isolated inputs.
Although the 7707 relays are latching type (relays hold their state even after power has been
removed), all relay states are set to open a few seconds after either a power cycle or an *RST
command is issued.
Connections to DMM functions are provided through the card backplane connector for INPUT connections
and SENSE (4-wire Ω) connections.
Channel 15 (2-wire/4-wire configuration), channel 16 (sense isolation), and channel 17 (input isolation) are
automatically configured during normal channel operation. When channel 15 is closed, channels 1 to 5 are
isolated from channels 6 to 10. When a 4-wire function is selected, the channels are paired as follows:
CH1 and CH6
CH2 and CH7
CH3 and CH8
CH4 and CH9
CH5 and CH10
The 7707 has four digital input/output channels (11, 12, 13, and 14). Each I/O channel can be set as either
a digital input port or a digital output port. Each port has eight lines (bits 0 to 7).
When an I/O channel is used as an input port, you can read the high or low state of each input line (bit).
When an I/O channel is used as an output port, you can set each line high or low to control external circuitry.
In the following schematic, channels 15 to 17 refer to the designations used for control and are not
available channels.

Installation
Before operating an instrument with a switching mod ule, verify that the switching module is
properly installed and the mounting screws are tightly fastened. If the mounting screws are
not properly connected, an electrical shock hazard may be present.
If you are installing a 7707 and a 7708, the 7707 must be installed in slot 1 and the 7708 in slot 2 to
reduce measurement uncertainty. If you are installing two switching modules, it is easier to install one
switching module into slot 2 first, then install the second switching module into slot 1.
If you have a Keithley Instruments Model 2700, 2701, or 2750 instrument, you can use your existing
switching module in the DAQ6510. Follow the instructions in your original equipment documentation
to remove the module from the instrument, then use the following instructions to install it in the
DAQ6510. You do not need to remove wiring to the module.
For inexperienced users, it is recommended that you do not connect a device under test (DUT) and
external circuitry to the switching module. This allows you to exercise close and open operations
without the dangers associated with live test circuits. You can also set up pseudocards to experiment
with switching. Refer to "Pseudocards" in the Model DAQ6510 Data Acqu isiti on a nd Mult im eter
System Reference Manual for information on setting up pseudocards.
To prevent electric shock that could result in injury or death, never handle a switching
module that has power applied to it. Before installing or removing a switching module, make
sure the DAQ6510 is turned off and disconnected from line power. If the switching module is
connected to a DUT, make sure power is removed from all external circuitry.
If a card slot is unused, you must install slot c overs to p revent personal contact with high
voltage circuits. Failure to install slot covers could result in personal exposure to hazardous
voltages, which could cause personal injury or death if contacted.

Remove a switching modul e
Before you remove a switching module or begin any testing, make sure that all the relays are open.
Since some relays may be latched closed, you must open all the relays before removing the
switching module to make connections. Additionally, if you drop your switching module, it is possible
for some relays to latch closed.
To open all channel relays, go to the CHANNEL swipe screen. Select Open All.
To prevent electric shock that could result in injury or death, never handle a switching
module that has power applied to it. Before installing or removing a switching module, make
sure the DAQ6510 is turned off and disconnected from line power. If the switching module is
connected to a DUT, make sure power is removed from all external circuitry.
If a card slot is unused, you must install slot covers to prevent personal contact with high
voltage circuits. Failure to install slot covers could result in personal exposure to haza rdous
voltages, which could cause personal injury or death if contacted.
Before installing or removing a switching module, make sure the DAQ6510 power is turned
off and disconnected from line power. Failure to comply may result in incorrect operation and
loss of data in the memory.
Required equipment:
Medium flat-blade screwdriver
Medium Phillips screwdriver
To remove a switching module from the DAQ6510:
1. Turn off the DAQ6510.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the power source.
3. Disconnect the power cord and any other cables that are connected to the rear panel.
4. Position the DAQ6510 so you are facing the rear panel.

Connections and wiring overview
Connection and wiring procedures in this do cument are intended for use by qualified
personnel only, as described by the ty pes of p roduct users in the Safety precautions (on
page 33). Do not perform these procedures unless qualified to do so. Failure to recognize
and observe normal safety precautions could result in personal injury or death.
To prevent electric shock that could result in serious injury or death, adhere to the following safety precautions:
Before removing or installing the switching module in the mainframe, make sure the mainframe is turned
off and disconnected from line power.
Before making or breaking connections to the switching module, make sure power is removed from all
external circuitry.
Do not connect signals that may exceed the maximum specifications of the 7707.
The following figure shows the pin numbers for the 7707 rear-panel connectors. Use the 50-pin D-shell t o
access digital input/output channels. Use the 25-pin D-shell to access analog input channels. Terminal
identification for the D-shell connector pins is provided in the following table.
