Introduction
The APCI-ADADIO is a 32-bit PCI Local Bus board which provides 8 differential (APCI-ADADIOCD) or
16 single-ended (APCI-ADADIOCS) multiplexed analogue inputs, two analogue outputs, 16 digital I/O
lines and three counter/timer channels. All I/O signals are routed to a 50 way D-Type socket which
conforms to Arcoms standard signal conditioning system (SCS).

Getting Started
Power down your PC system.
Install the board in a spare PCI Slot (See Installation for CE compliance).
Power up system with MSDOS.
Run APCI.EXE (supplied on the utility disk), this will search for the board and check I/O access. If
this fails, check board is correctly located.
Warning
This board contains CCM
MO
OSS devices which may be damaged by static electricity. Please ensure anti-
static precautions are taken at all times when handling this board. If for any reason this board is
returned to Arcom control systems, please ensure it is adequately packed, to prevent damage
occurring during shipment.
