The DiamondSystemsIO component provides access to the Diamond Systems DMM 16 AT analog / digital card
through the DiamondSystemsIO CDP Component. The DiamondSystemsIO is an IOServer based CDP
Component that retrieves and sets digital and analog signal values from and to the card. If several cards are
connected to the same CDP controller, one DiamondSystemsIO server must exist for each card. If you have two
cards, you must have two DiamondSystemsIO servers.
Warning: On system power-up (time from booting until CDP is completely up and running), the digital
outputs will be set to a low (value 0), while the Analog outputs might fluctuate. Due to this, essential control
outputs should be controlled (enabled) by a high signal from the digital outputs to prevent problems when
powering up/down the controller.
An Autocalibrate feature, which assumes that the digital outputs are set to a low value to disable the
controlled equipment might also be present, so for this reason, beware of how the board is connected.
This document describes how to set up and use the DiamondSystemIO with the CDP system. The
DiamondSystemIO component has the following features:
- Supports the DMM-16-AT card
- Works under On-Time RTOS32.
- Converts CDP Signals to physical signals
- Converts Physical signals into CDP Signals
- Has Online/Offline State for checking communication-problems.
