1 1. Introd uction Thank you for bu y i ng the Advantech PCI-1784. The PC I-1784 is a 4- axis quadrature en coder and counter card for PC I bus. This card includes four 32-bit quadruple AB phase encod er counters, 8-bit timer with multi range time-base selector and four isolated di gital input and four isolated digital output.
2 Counters The PCI-1784 has four independent 32-bit counters. The m aximum quadrature input rate is 2 MHz, and the max imum input rate in counter mode is 8 MHz. Y ou can indivi dually configure each co unter for quadrature decoding, pulse/direction countin g or up/down counting.
3 default configuration, depending on jumper setting. This practical function eliminate s dan ger c aused by miss-operation dur ing unex pected system reset. Board ID The PCI-1784 has a built-in DIP Switch that helps define each card’s ID when multiple PCI-1784 cards have been installed on the same PC chassis.

19 3. Signal Connec tions 3.1 Overvie w Maintaining signal connections is one of the most important factors in ensuring that your application system is sending and receiving data correctly. A good signal connection can avoid unnecessar y and costly damage to your PC and other hardware devices.
20 Setting the time to reset the digital outputs and the counter val u e Some users will want the capabilit y of clearing each counter and the isolated digital output when the system (or PC) issues a reset signal on the PCI bus. Some users will want to clear their counter and digital output only as part of system power-on.

47 Appendix D. Operatio n D.1 Quadr ature encoder introduction In typical closed-loop control systems, also know as servo s ystem, the encoder interface s enses motor position and sends a position signal to the controller . The dia gram below shows a t ypical servo system.
48 Single-ended vs. differential input Most encoders produce square w ave signals with TTL levels. Industrial systems often use encod er with differential sign als, i.e. channel A and B and their complements. Dif ferential sig n als can reduce se nsitivit y to noise and allow longer transmission distances.
49 2-pulse mode In 2-pulse mode the PCI-1784 uses two input pulses as counting sources: one for clock wise (CW) and one for counterclock wise (CCW) counting. The counter will increment wh enever a rising edge occurs on channel A. It will decre m ent whenever a rising edge occur s on channel B.
50 to 500 KHz quadrature input frequen cy . A 3600 rpm motor with 2000 ppr encoder will nave a max imum quadrature frequenc y of 3600×2000÷60 ＝ 120 KHz. In the above example the 2 MHz sampling clock will have the noise immunity and will meet the required input frequenc y .
51 DI0 latch A rising edge on the board's DI0 line will latch the counter v alue for the channel. DI1 latch A rising edge on the DI1 line will latch the counter value for the channel. DI2 latch A rising edge on the board's DI2 line will latch the counter v alue for the channel.
52 D.7 I nterrupt function The PCI-1784 can generate an inte rrupt to the PC for any of the following conditions: 1. Counter 0 overflow 2. Counter 1 overflow 3. Counter 2 overflow 4. Counter 3 overflow 5. Counter 0 underflow 6. Counter 1 underflow 7. Counter 2 underflow 8.
53 registers a t BASE+20H. Y ou will need to set the chip 's interr upt mask register to exclude all but one of the int errupt lines..
