Chapter 1: Introduction 232OPSDA Features The 232OPSDA is an optically isolated data acquisition module that is connected to your computer’s RS-232 serial port. It provides 2500V of optical isolation protection between the I/O and RS-232 side of the module. The 232OPSDA offers six channels of 12-bit A/D, one digital input, and one digital output. The six A/D input channels can be used for a number of applications. One A/D channel can read a 4-20mA analog current, two buffered channels

Chapter 2: Connections This chapter will cover the connections required for the 232OPSDA. Four sets of connections are required: A/D converter, digital I/O, serial port, and power supply connections. Do not make any connections until you have read this chapter. If you do not use a particular type of connection, it is still important to read each section. Table 2.1 shows the terminal block assignments. Table 2.1: Terminal Block Assignments Terminal Function Description Block TB 0 A/

Digital I/O Connections The digital I/O connections are made on the I/O port, which consists of terminal blocks. Table 2.1 shows the terminal block assignments. Digital Input Terminal block 7 is the digital input line. This input is CMOS/TTL compatible and can handle voltage from -30VDC to 30VDC. If a digital input is from -30VDC to 1.0VDC, the state will be read as a “0” (LOW). If a digital input is from 2.0VDC to 30VDC, the state will be read as a “1” (HIGH). If the digital input i

Power Supply Connections The 232OPSDA requires an isolated external power supply that is able to produce 9-16VDC @10mA in addition to the port power. The positive(+) lead of the power supply is connected to the terminal block labeled +12VDC and the negative(-) lead is connected to the terminal block labeled GND. The external power supply powers the I/O side of the module. The RS-232 side of the module is port powered using RTS and DTR. These lines may be either LOW or HIGH to provide po

Chapter 3: Commands Only three commands are required to operate the 232OPSDA: the read A/D command, read digital I/O command, and the set digital output command. The command string consists of four bytes. The read A/D and digital I/O commands require an additional data byte. See Table 3.1.

Chapter 4: A/D This chapter will deal with the various A/D channels and manipulating the data obtained from them. Sampling Rate The A/D converter has a conversion time around 10 microseconds, however, the actual sampling rate is limited by the serial communications. The actual sampling rate for a single channel is around 120 samples per second (9600 baud). This rate drops to around 41 samples per second when sampling all of the channels. When reading an A/D input, the 232OPSDA takes

R13 and R14 should be chosen so that V does 0 not exceed 5.00VDC. 0 to 10VDC A/D Input The 232OPSDA contains one A/D input than is capable of handling voltages between 0VDC and 10VDC.

The signal conditioning circuit for this A/D input channel has been designed to be easily modified. In the original configuration, R5 and R6 are left OPEN (they are not present). These two spaces are provided if you need a different gain. Reducing the gain of this non- inverting amplifier allows you to measure currents up to 100mA, and increasing the gain allows you to read much smaller currents with greater accuracy. See the circuit schematic in Figure B.1 and board layout in Figure B.

Chapter 5: Software Application Program Interface The application program interface (API) is a set of routines that makes it easy to communicate with the 232OPSDA module from a 16- bit DOS application. Example programs using the API are written in ® Borland C++, Borland Pascal and Microsoft QuickBASIC v4.5. The batch file, MAKEIT.BAT, in the directory for each language shows how to compile and link the demo program with the API routines. B232OPSDA_ReadAnalog Purpose: This function reads
