Robust Protection
The PCIE-1760 digital input channels feature robust isolation protection for industrial,
lab and machinery automation applications. It durably withstands voltage up to 2,500
VDC, preventing your host system from any incidental harm. If connected to an exter-
nal input source with surge-protection, the PCIE-1760 can offer up to a maximum of
2,000 VDC ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection. Even with an input voltage rising
up to 70 VDC, the PCIE-1760 can still manage to work properly, albeit only for a short
period of time.
Plug-and-Play Function
The PCIE-1760 is a Plug-and-Play device, which fully complies with PCI Express
Specification Rev V1.0. During card installation, there is no need to set jumpers or
DIP switches. Instead, all bus-related configurations such as base I/O address and
interrupt are automatically done by the Plug-and-Play function.
Chapter 1
The PCIE-1760 has a built-in DIP Switch that helps define each card’s ID when multi-
ple PCIE-1760 cards have been installed on the same PC chassis. The board ID set-
ting function is very useful when users build their system with multiple PCIE-1760
cards. With correct Board ID settings, you can easily identify and access each card
during hardware configuration and software programming.
Overview
Counters on PCIE-1760 have a counter value match interrupt function. When this
interrupt function is enabled, an interrupt signal will be generated if the counter value
reaches a pre-set counter match value. The counter will continue to count until an
overflow occurs, then it will go back to its reset value zero and continue the counting
process. A user can set each individual counter channel to count either falling edge
(high-to-low) or rising edge (low-to-high) signals.
Except measurement functionality, counter input channels can combine with PWM
output channels to generate single pulse, pulse train or PWM (pulse-width modu-
lated) output signal. A pulse-width modulated waveform is created when the High
and Low periods of a periodic rectangular signal are varied. Using PCIE-1760, user
can individually set each PWM channel’s High and Low periods for from 2 to (232 -1)
units (1 unit = 50 µs), depending on his needs.
1. Event counter: PCIE-1760 built-in counter can calculate how many pulse are sent
into the input channel.
4. Pulse Output with Interrupt: PCIE-1760 counter has internal clock that you can
produce periodic output signal with interrupt generated at the same time. PCIE-1760
counter will use internal clock as time base, to fulfill the frequency you want to set.
PCIE-1760 supports two output types: pulse and toggled. See figure below as exam-
ple, the desired frequency is 3 MHz. The internal clock is 20 MHz, so PCIE-1760 will
periodically generate output signal and interrupt every 6 pulses of the internal clock.
(20 MHz / 3 MHz = 6.67).
Note! If the output signal logic high time or logic low time (see figure below) is
less than 100 µs, you cannot see the output signal. This is because
PCIE-1760 is equipped with photocouple component on PWM output
channel, and their response time is not fast enough to make the fre-
quency faster than 20 kHz.
Chapter 1
gle pulse after a specific period, starting from a trigger signal connecting to counter
gate input. For example, if you define the count equals to 3 (as figure below), a single
pulse will be generated after 3 pulses of internal clock signals pass, after a trigger
signal from counter gate becomes high.
Overview
Note! If the output signal logic high time or logic low time (see figure below) is
less than 100 μs, you cannot see the output signal. This is because
PCIE-1760 is equipped with photocouple component on PWM output
channel, and their response time is not fast enough to make the fre-
quency faster than 20 kHz.

1.4 Installation Guide
Before you install your PCIE-1760 card, please make sure you have the following
necessary components:
PCIE-1760 card
PCIE-1760 User’s Manual
Advantech driver DAQNavi (included in the CD-ROM)
Wiring cable PCL-10137 (option)
Wiring board ADAM-3937 (option)
Personal computer or workstation with a PCI Express-bus slot
Some other optional components are also available for enhanced operation:
After you get the necessary components and maybe some of the accessories for
enhanced operation of your card, you can then begin the Installation procedures.
Wiring Cable
The PCL-10137 shielded cable is specially designed for PCIE-1760 cards to provide
high resistance to noise. To achieve better signal quality, the signal wires are twisted
in such a way as to form a “twisted-pair cable”, reducing cross-talk and noise from
other signal sources. Furthermore, its digital lines are separately sheathed and
shielded to neutralize EMI/EMC problems.
Wiring Boards
The ADAM-3937 is a 37-pin D-type wiring terminal module for DIN-rail mounting.
This terminal module can be readily connected to the Advantech cards and allow
easy yet reliable access to individual pin connections for the PCIE-1760 card.
2.2 Unpacking
After receiving your PCIE-1760 package, please inspect its contents first. The pack-
age should contain the following items:
PCIE-1760 card
Companion CD-ROM
User’s Manual
Before removing the card from the antistatic plastic bag, you should take following
precautions to ward off possible ESD damage:
Touch the metal part of your computer chassis with your hand to discharge static
electricity accumulated on your body. Or one can also use a grounding strap.
Touch the anti-static bag to a metal part of your computer chassis before open-
ing the bag.
Take hold of the card only by the metal bracket when removing it out of the bag.
Also pay extra caution to the following aspects to ensure proper installation:
Avoid physical contact with materials that could hold static electricity such as
plastic, vinyl and Styrofoam.
Whenever you handle the card, grasp it only by its edges. DO NOT TOUCH the
exposed metal pins of the connector or the electronic components.
Note! Keep the anti-static bag for future use. You might need the original bag
to store the card if you have to remove the card from PC or transport it
elsewhere.
Chapter 2
We recommend you to install the driver before you install the PCIE-1760 card into
your system, since this will guarantee a smooth installation process.
The Advantech device driver installation for the PCIE-1760 card is included on the
companion CD-ROM that is shipped with your DA&C card package.
Hardware Installation
Note! Make sure you have installed the driver first before you install the card.
After the device driver installation is completed, you can now go on to install the
PCIE-1760 card in any PCI Express slot on your computer. Follow the steps below to
install the card on your system.
1. Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and cables. TURN OFF your
computer before installing or removing any components on the computer.
2. Remove the cover of your computer.
3. Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your computer.
4. Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutralize the static
electricity that might be on your body.
5. Insert the PCIE-1760 card into a PCI Express slot. Hold the card only by its
edges and carefully align it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into place. Use of
excessive force must be avoided, otherwise the card might be damaged.
6. Fasten the bracket of the PCI Express card on the back panel of the computer.
7. Connect appropriate accessories to the PCI Express card.
8. Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-connect the cables you
removed in step 2.
9. Plug in the power cord and turn on the computer.
Note! In case you installed the card without installing the Device Drivers first,
Win95/98/ME will recognize your card as an “unknown device” after
rebooting, and will prompt you to provide the necessary driver. Ignore
the prompting messages (just click the Cancel button) and set up the
driver according to the steps described in 2.3 Driver Installation.
Note! If your card is properly installed, you should see the device name of your
card listed on the Device Manager tab. If you do see your device name
listed on it but marked with an exclamation sign “!”, it means your card
has not been correctly installed. In this case, remove the card device
from the Device Manager by selecting its device name and press the
Remove button. Then go through the driver installation process again.

Chapter 3
Each of the 8 isolated digital input channels accepts either dry contact or 10 ~ 30 VDC
wet contact inputs as determined by the corresponding jumper settings (see Table
3.1). Dry contact capability allows an input channel to respond to changes in an
external circuit (e.g., the closing of a switch in the external circuit) when no voltage is
present in the external circuit. Figure 3.2 shows the internal and external circuitry,
with both wet and dry contact components connected as an input source for one of
the PCIE-1760's isolated digital input channels.
