5.2 Base Address Setting (DSW1,DSW2)

The Advme2608A occupies a 64-byte contiguous address space. This 64-byte area can be set within the range of

C000h to FFFFh in the VME bus A16 short address space by using a rotary switch on the board.

The starting address of the required area is referred to as a base address (BASE).

The base address is assigned with the DIP rotary switches, DSW 1 and 2.

DSW1 is used to assign addresses corresponding to A6 to A9 address buses, and DSW2 to assign addresses

corresponding to A10 to A13 base address buses.

The following equation shows a correspondence between the base address (BASE) and DSW1 (DSW2).

[BASE] = C000h+ (DSW2 set value << 10 ) + (DSW1 set value << 6 )

The set value <<N means that the set value is shifted to the left by N bit(s).

When DSW2 is set to 5h and DSW1 is set to Ch:

[BASE] =C000h + (5h << 10 ) + (Ch << 6)

=C000h + 1400h + 300h

=D700h

5.3 Analog Input Form Setting (JP2)

The Advme2608A allows the setting of analog input formats all at once to single-ended or differential input.

The number of input channels is 64 for single-ended inputs and 32 for differential inputs.

Set the analog input format using JP2 on the board. The analog input format for the trigger mode register should

be set to be the same as that for JP2.

Refer to Chapter 9 for relationship between channel numbers and connector pin numbers of each input format.

JP2

Open Single-end

Short Differential

5.4 Analog Input Range Setting (JP4,JP6,JP7 to JP70)

Among the analog inputs, JP4 is used to set an analog input range of even number channels and JP6 is used to set

an analog input range of odd number channels.

The even number channels correspond to connector 1 (CN1) and odd number channels to connector 2 (CN2)

respectively.

The following shows the jumper settings of each range.

Analog Input range setting JP4 : Even number channel (CN1)

JP6 : Odd number channel (CN2)

: Short

The current mode is set using JP7 to JP70.

The ranges 0 to 20[mA] (current mode) and 0 to 5[V] are common for JP4 and JP6 settings. They can be mixed by

the settings of JP7 toJP70.

By selecting a single-ended input within the range of 0 to 5[V] and short-circuiting a jumper corresponding to the

current mode channel, only the channel enters the current mode.

The following shows the relationship between JP7 to JP70 and each channel in the current mode.

Current mode setting

JP7 → channel 0

JP8 → channel 2

JP38 → channel 62

JP39 → channel 1

JP40 → channel 3

JP70 → channel 63

5.5 External Trigger Setting (JP1)

JP1 is used to set whether to use the external trigger input or not. The “trigger mode setting register” is used to set

which to regard as a trigger, the start or stop of an external trigger signal.

The minimum pulse width of the external trigger signal is 70[ns].

When start of external signal is regarded as a trigger

When stop of external signal is regarded as a trigger

Single-end (64ch) ................. 1ms and above

70ns and above

Open External trigger input is not used.

Short External trigger input is used.

6. Control

The Advme2608A can adjust gain and offset of each connector, CN1 (even number channel) and CN2 (odd number

channel), all at once against analog inputs.

Though the connectors have been adjusted before shipment, readjustment may be needed due to changes in range and

secular changes.

After setting a range to use, make adjustment following the procedure below.

z Range of ±10[V]

(1) Connect to a channel which is used to adjust outputs of standard voltage generator.

(2) Set the output voltage (hereafter referred to as “output voltage”) of the standard voltage generator to 0[V].

Adjust VR6 or VR3 such that the A/D conversion data of the adjusting channel becomes 8000h.

VR6 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR3 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(3) Set the output voltage to 9.8[V]. Adjust VR5 or VR4 such that the A/D conversion data becomes FD71h.

VR5 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR4 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(4) Set the output voltage to -9.8[V]. Check that the A/D conversion data is within the range of 028Fh ±41h.

z Range of 0 to 10[V]

(1) Connect to a channel which is used to adjust outputs of standard voltage generator.

(2) Set the output voltage of the standard voltage generator to 0.2[V]. Adjust VR6 or VR3 such that the A/D

conversion data of the adjusting channel becomes 051Fh.

VR6 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR3 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(3) Set the output voltage to 9.8[V]. Adjust VR5 or VR4 such that the A/D conversion data becomes FAE1h.

VR5 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR4 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(4) Set the output voltage to 5[V]. Check that the A/D conversion data is within the range of 8000h ±41h.

z Range of 0 to 5[V]

(1) Connect to a channel which is used to adjust outputs of standard voltage generator.

(2) Set the output voltage of the standard voltage generator to 0.1[V]. Adjust VR6 or VR3 such that the A/D

conversion data of the adjusting channel becomes 051Fh.

VR6 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR3 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(3) Set the output voltage to 4.9[V]. Adjust VR5 or VR4 such that the A/D conversion data becomes FAE1h.

VR5 corresponds to CN1 (even number channel) and VR4 corresponds to CN2 (odd number channel).

(4) Set the output voltage to 2.5[V]. Check that the A/D conversion data is within the range of 8000h ±41h.

z Range of 0 to 20[mA]

This range adjustment method is basically the same as that for 0-5[V]. The current is converted into voltage by

250Ω resistance of the input circuit. Though errors are contained in the 250Ω resistance, they cannot be adjusted

since they are unique to each channel.

So, if JP7-JP70 are short-circuited after the adjustment is completed in the same method as that for 0-5[V], the

adjustment is completed for the range of 0-20[mA].

zA/D scan interrupt. .. This occurs when A/D conversion data of the final channel was written to the FIFO.

These can be identified by a board status register.

Both of these interrupt factors are cleared by writing any value to this register.

When the software interrupt processing routine is completed, any value should be written to enable the next

interrupt.

Note that if the FIFO is full, the FIFO full interrupt factors cannot be cleared.

7.6 Pacer Clock Setting Register (Upper / Lower)

In the pacer clock mode, the A/D conversion is performed with a period of pacer clock (built-in timer).

This register is used to set a period of trigger signals timed by a pacer clock.

The period of trigger signals timed by the pacer clock can be set within the range of 1-1024ms at 1ms interval.

The setting should be made in order of upper 2 bits and lower 8 bits among all 10 bits.

A pacer clock period is set when writing to the lower 8 bits have been completed.

The period is given with the following equation.

It becomes 0 clear after reset.

This register is write only, and the reading value is indefinite.

Period T= 1ms × n (n: pacer clock settings 1-1023)
