CIO-DAC Series (excluding HS) and PC104-DAC06

The CIO-DAC Series (excluding HS) includes the following hardware:

This topic also includes the PC104-DAC06.

The CIO-DAC Series (excluding HS) and PC104-DAC06 support the following UL and UL for .NET features.

Analog output

Functions

UL: cbAOut(), cbVOut(), cbAOutScan()

UL for .NET: AOut(), VOut(), AOutScan()

Options

SIMULTANEOUS

HighChan

DAC02: 0 to 1

DAC06: 0 to 5

DAC08: 0 to 7

DAC16: 0 to 15

Rate

Ignored

Count

HighChan - LowChan + 1 max

Range

Ignored - not programmable. The range for all devices in this series is fixed at one of four jumper/switch-selectable ranges:

BIP10VOLTS (±10 volts)UNI10VOLTS (0 to 10 volts)
BIP5VOLTS (±5 volts)UNI5VOLTS (0 to 5 volts)

In addition to these four ranges, the CIO-DAC16, CIO-DAC08, and CIO-DAC02/16 allow switch-selectable ranges:

BIP2PT5VOLTS (±2.5 volts)UNI2PT5VOLTS (0 to 2.5 volts)

The CIO-DAC02, CIO-DAC08-I, and CIO-DAC16-I allow:

MA4TO20 (4 to 20 mA)

DataValue

0 to 4,095

For the /16 series, the following argument values are also valid:

0 to 65,535 (Refer to 16-bit values using a signed integer data type for information on 16-bit values using unsigned integers.)
