Driver Block Parameters

Carrier ID -- Enter the Carrier ID of the IP carrier board into which the IP module is plugged.

In order to use an IP module, it must be physically plugged into an IP carrier board and the model must contain a block representing this carrier board. Each carrier block has a `Carrier ID' parameter, which must be set to a number not shared by any other carrier board block in the model.

Carrier slot -- Select the slot on the carrier board into which the IP-16DAC module is plugged. Note that different carrier boards can have different slot capacities.

Channel vector -- Enter a vector of numbers between 1 and 3. The channel numbers can occur in any order. For example, to use the first and second analog output (D/A) channels, enter

[1,2]

Channel numbers 1, 2, and 3 correspond to DAC A, DAC B, and DAC C respectively.

Range vector -- Enter a range code for each of the channels in the channel vector. The range vector must be the same length as the channel vector. This board allows the range of each channel to be different.

The following table is a list of the ranges for this driver and the corresponding range codes.

Range Code
Input Range (V)
-10
-10 to +10
-5
-5 to +5
5
0 to 5
10
0 to 10

For example, if the first channel is -10 to +10 volts, and the second channel is 0 to 5 volts, enter [-10,5]

The range settings must correspond to the jumper settings on the board for DAC A and DAC B and DAC C.

Sample time -- Base sample time of a multiple of the base sample time.
