PCI-DIO24/LP
July 06, 2016
PCI card does not fit in modern PCs. (DELL INSPIRON)

The DIO24 family has been used for many years in many products. Our "ITS Arena" has been manufactured for about 10 years and is still going strong. Unfortunately, Microsoft, Intel, and others keep changing the interface so that even with rewriting everything for WIN10 the hardware cannot be brought up-to-date. The DIO24/LP has a different output connector so that adapting to our legacy system is nearly impossible. An adapter to the old DB-37 would be a welcome product. If we could find a motherboard which would accept the "PCI-2" like card.

Easy to use, excellent driver support

I bought this specifically for the Windows 7, 64-bit support and LabView libraries. I use it to communicate with another computer for a research project. It performs flawlessly in DOS under Windows 7, and works very well with LabView as well.

PCI-DIO24H
August 27, 2013
Excellent hardware and software libraries. Very reliable

We've been using the PCIDIO24H for over 15 years and have yet to experience a hardware failure. From a programming viewpoint, we've only had 1 problem with the universal libraries, and that was simply a driver switch between UL6.01 and UL6.10. Once we understood that (very good technical help from MCC#, a simple re-compile of our software using the new libraries solved the problem. We've used these devices from Windows 2000 to Windows 7 #skipped VISTA), and everything has just worked.

Great product/great price/fast delivery !

Needed this for a critical repair - was able to order easily, track delivery date and co-ordinate the repair tech session easily. Original card failed after 8 years service due to massive electrical surge - new card is working flawlessly !

What is the typical / faster acquisition speed that we can expect from such a board?

bifidus Switzerland


Answers

Hello bifidus - Thank you for your inquiry. The speed is indeterminate and we do not specify a rate for the PCI-DIO24. These types of cards (such PCI-DIO24, PCI-DIO96H) are not paced. That is, they are updated via software and not hardware paced with a clock. The speed you get will be determined by the speed of your PC, the overhead of your operating system and the timing of your program. We did some benchmarking and here are the results we got: Writes are 423 kHz/write, Reads are 389.6 kHz Once again this benchmark will be different on every system and is not guaranteed.

Yes, we do have a low profile version of our PCI-DIO24 device. The PCI-DIO24/LP supports half height/low profile PCs and towers. You can review the specifications for the PCI-DIO24/LP here: LP http://www.mccdaq.com/pci-data-acquisition/PCI-DIO24-LP.aspx

Hi, What would be the result if a National Instruments ELVIS workstation of the first generation (not the ELVIS II) with its VHDCI 68-pin connector was using your PCI-DIO24/LP as a DAQ card? Would your driver suffice? Thanks

We are now using the PCI-DIO24 in all our full height computers. The latest computer are Dell mini tower computers. Will tthe PCI-O24/S work and allow us to use the existing cables as on the full size card? If I a PCI-DIO24/LP I am guessing another cable

Wally Lancaster, OH 43130, USA


Answers

Hi Wally - I have to make an assumption that the height of the PCI-DIO24 board is the problem here. If that is correct, then it’s unfortunate but PCI-DIO24/S supports the same form factor as the PCI-DIO24 so the PCI-DIO24/S would not solve the predicament you are in. We do offer a half height card (the PCI-DIO24/LP) but as you pointed out the connector is different. The PCI-DIO24/LP uses a 68 pin high-density connector so a change to your cabling and screw terminal board would be necessary. Another option would be to use our USB-DIO24/37 device which has the same digital I/O configuration, same 37 pin connector, but features USB connectivity. If you would like some more details, please call Sales Engineering at 1-800-234-4232 x-3 and we discuss a solution for you.

We have a DIO24H card in a computer used to control lab equipment. The PC needs to be upgraded to WIN7 64-bit per corporate policy. I am wondering whether there are drivers from WIN7 64bit that are compatible with the older card.

Hi TIJoe - Thank you for your question. The PCI-DIO24H most certainly has Windows 7/8 32 and 64 bit support. Updated drivers can be downloaded from our web site at the following link: http://www.mccdaq.com/software.aspx. Please download the MCC DAQ CD for our up to date software support.
