The PCI bus 8 channels relay output / photo isolator input adapter provides relay output functions and photo isolator input functions. The relay output part provides 8 relays to drive 8 different output channels. Each relay channel can be used to control ON / OFF of external devices, to drive external high power relays, to activate alarms ... etc. The photo isolator input part provides 8 photo couple digital input channels, which allow the input signals to be completely floated and prevent the ground loop.

Please refer Decision Industrial Interface (DII) Software manual to know how to install device driver for PCI bus 8 Port Channels Relay Output/ Photo Isolator Input adapters, and how to write application program by using Active-X Components.

The features of the PCI bus 8 channels relay output / 8 photo isolator input adapter are:

#32 bits PCI bus with Plug and Play (PnP) features.

#Support 8 relay output channels and 8 photo couple input channels.

#Max contact rating for relay: 120V AC/DC 1AMP.

#Attraction time for relay: 3 ms.

#Fall off time for relay: 2 ms.

#Isolation resistance for relay: 100M OHM.

#Life expectancy for relay: 100 million operations at signal level load.

#Allow the photo input signals to be completely floated and prevent the ground loops.

#Activation voltage: 17 to 28V or TTL level.

Hardware Installation:

Your PCI bus 8 channels relay output/photo isolator input adapter is design to be inserted in any available PCI slot in your PC/486, Pentium or compatibles. In order to gain access to the expansion slots, follow the steps listed below:

1. Turn off all power to your computer and all peripheral devices before installing your 8 channels relay output/photo isolator input adapter.

2. Remove the cover of the computer.

3. Insert the 8 channels relay output/photo isolator input adapter into any available PCI slot. Make sure the adapter is firmly seated in the chosen slot.

4. Replace the cover of the computer.

5. Turn on the power of your computer, the PnP features will recognize the 8 channels relay output/photo isolator input adapter.
