Card ID function
The PEX-DA, PISO-DAxU and PIO-DAxU series cards (PCI Express/Universal PCI versions) are compatible with the PIO-DAx cards (PCI versions) and most users can replace the PIO-DAx by PEX-DA, PISO-DAxU or PIO-DAxU directly without software/driver modification. Please refer to user manual (ch 1.1) for the compatibility information.
The PISO-DA series adds high-voltage isolation design that offers a durable ability to keep users' computers safe from unexpected surge. It is the built-in high-quality isolation components that make PISO-DA series featuring 2500 VDC bus-typed isolation! For the PEX-DA, PIO-DA and the PISO-DA series, their voltage output range is from -10 V to +10 V, and their current output range is from 0 to 20 mA. In addition, These cards also feature the following advantages by ICP DAS's innovation:
Accurate and easy-to-use calibration.
ICP DAS provides the software calibration instead of the manual calibration so that no jumpers and trim-pots are required anymore. The calibration information can be saved in EEPROM for long-term use.
Individual channel configuration.
In other words, every channel can be individually configured as voltage output or current output!
Card ID.
ICP DAS provides the card ID function for PEX-DA, PISO-DAxU and PIO-DAxU (version 1.1 or above) series. Users can set card ID for each card and then recognize them one by one when more than two boards are used in a computer.
These cards support various OS versions, such as Linux, DOS, Windows 98/NT/2000 and 32/64-bit Windows 8/7/Vista/XP. DLL and Active X control together with various language sample programs based on Turbo C++, Borland C++, Microsoft C++, Visual C++, Borland Delphi, Borland C++ Builder, Visual Basic, C#.NET, Visual Basic.NET and LabVIEW are provided in order to help users quickly and easily develop their own applications.
