Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Honestly did not realize it did not come with relays. This makes a lot more sense. These are now on order (70-ODC5 and 70-IDC5).
I was able to connect to the device. My issue was with Instacal holding the resource. Once I removed the board from Instacal I was able to connect the same way I used before.
I also tested the outputs without relays by setting them and reading them back to ensure they turned on and this seemed to work.
Read Input
short DataValue = 0;
MccDaq.ErrorInfo ULStat = DaqBoard.DIn(DigitalPortType.FirstPortA, out DataValue);
Set Output
short dioOutVal = 0;
DaqBoard.DOut(DigitalPortType.FirstPortA, dioOutVal);
Looking at the input relay, the input impedance looks like 1.8k ohms so if I am using 24V DC I should not need anything else to stay under the rated input current correct?
Thanks,
Nick
