INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE BOARD
The Board Mounts into an IBM PC Compatible
Computer's 8 bit Expansion Slot. To install the
Board, line the back of the board up with the
card guide in the back of the computer. Gently
but firmly press the board into the Expansion
slot. Screw down the mounting bracket with the
screw provided. If the computer does not have
a card guide, be sure to secure the board in
some fashion so that it will not touch any other
boards or the metal case. The dimensions of
the board are shown to the right.
WIRING TO THE CLCI2000
The CLCI2000 Series Indexers comes with either 1 or 2 37 Pin D-sub type connectors. These connectors contain signals
that must be connected to the Driver to control the step motors. One simple way to do this is to buy the DPI65200 Series
Driver Pack which allows the two to be connected by a simple 37 pin cable (good for 1 and 2 axis versions only). Another
solution is to buy the AA2M37 Breakout Terminal Board. This takes a 37 Pin D-sub connector and 'breaks out' those pins
into two strips of terminal blocks. Wires can then be inserted into the terminal blocks and can be connected to the Drivers
and any other necessary devices. Another way is to make up a cable by soldering wires into a 'solder cup' type 37 Pin
D-sub connector. The only wires that need to be connected are the wires being used.
ADDRESS SETTINGS
The Board will be sent from the factory with a HEX Base address setting of 300. This will be the setting necessary for
the CLCI2004 Software. The CLCISUB1.BAS AND CLCI2000.CPP
LIBRARY FILES will support any address. There is a 5 pin dip switch on the
CLCI2000 to select the base address. This will enable the user to select any
address between Hex 000 and Hex 3FF. The figure shown on the right is set
for Base Address Hex 300. In Binary, this setting would be described as
11000. The leftmost digit (or bit) pertains to switch number 1 on the 5 pin dip
switch. For a '1' setting, the switch should be 'OFF'. For a '0' setting, the
switch should be 'ON'. Below is a table for various Base Address Settings.
