2 •• Introduction
1.1 Features
The PCI-7250 Relay Actuator and D/I Card provides the following
advanced features:
• 32-bit PCI-Bus, Plug and Play for PCI-7250
• 32-bit ComapctPCI
Bus, Plug and Play for cPCI-7252
• 8 relay actuator outputs
• 8 opto-isolated digital inputs for PCI-7250
• 16 opto-isolated digital inputs for cPCI-7252
• LED indicators to show activated relays
• Jumper selectable AC-filter/non-AC-filter input signals
• On-board relay driving circuits
• On-board digital input signal conditioning circuits
Note: The PCI-7251 can attach to the PCI-7250 card. Each PCI-7251 card provides
another 8 relay output and 8 photo isolated input signals. There are at most
three PCI-7251 cards can be attached on one PCI-7250 card so that the
system can provide 32 relay output signals and 32 photo isolated inputs
signals.
1.2 Applications
• Industrial ON/OFF control
• External high power relay driving, Signal switching
• Laboratory automation
• Industrial automation
• Switch contact status sensing, limit switch monitoring,
• Useful with A/D and D/A cards to implement a data acquisition
& control system
