Thank You For Buying
PC AD1200
Interface!
We proudly present the PC AD1200 Interface Board.
The PC AD1200 Interface allows the PC user to measure
and control ’Real World’ analogue signals. AD1200 is 100%
compatible with the widely available DT2811 card and yet has
features that surpass and out perform that product. Blending the
discrete digital domain of computers with the infinitely variable
Analogue realm brings great power to the user, allowing control
and monitoring of almost any process. AD1200’s mix of high
performance Analogue to Digital input, Digital to Analogue
output, Digital input and Digital output hardware with a fully
functioned software package provides a straight forward route to
excellence in signal acquisition. Extend your grasp with AD1200.
Your board is designed and manufactured in England, and
our policy is one of complete support to our dealers and direct
to our users. Please note, PC AD1200 is designed ’in house’ and
is completely understood by our staff. Its great strength is the
software support we give it. Our intention is to supply the
software and any technical information you may need to allow
you to exercise complete control over the AD1200 board and
software. After searching the manuals, do not hesitate to contact
us on our HOTLINE numbers given on Intro Page-2, if you
need help.
We are particularly keen to provide new operating system
or language drivers to expand the range of applications using our
PC AD1200 board.
We trust that if you adhere to the following procedures you
will enjoy many years of useful service from your AD1200 card.

PC AD1200 MANUAL____________________
The Layout Of This Manual._________________________
This manual is a complete description of how to install,
configure and use the PC AD1200 interface board.
The PC AD1200 card, like our other PC add on boards, is
an extremely easy to use and understand implementation of
Analogue interfacing for IBM PC and compatible computers. We
have truly tamed the Analogue world and the PC BUS allowing
you to get the most out of your data acquisition system!
Chapter 1, Introduction To The Analogue
World, describes the features of the range of AD1200 cards,
discusses the fundamentals of Analogue to Digital conversion,
Digital to Analogue conversion and explains exactly how the
AD1200 range implements these. Downwards compatibility with
the DT2811 is discussed as well as the extra high performance
features that distinguish the AD1200 range, this improved design
whilst retaining exact compatibility with other manufacturers
products gives AD1200 extreme flexibility in its application and
use. Converter throughput, interrupt and DMA driven i/o are
explained together with a complete description of the AD1200’s
timing and control modes.
Chapter 2, Installation Guide, shows you how to
configure and install the PC AD1200 board in one of the
expansion slots of your computer and gives the default setting of
all configurable options. All settings for I/O base address, IRQ
and DMA channels, ADC and DAC voltage ranges are shown.
Details of how to connect up the AD1200 to the users system
are given.

PC AD1200 Reference
Chapter 3, The AD1200 Register Map, details the
programmable status and control registers on the card. Whilst
most users will use the bundled driver software and so find this
information be be unnecessary it is included to make this manual
as complete as possible, to allow you to cover every eventuality.
Chapter 4, Calibration, shows how to perform a
calibration of the AD1200 analogue circuitry. The use of the
calibration software, the position and function of the onboard
trimmer pots and use of ancillary equipment are all described.
Calibration should be performed at regular intervals to ensure
that the AD1200 remains in specification, and that your analogue
measurements are traceable back to nationally and internationally
recognised standards.
Chapter 5, Technical Specification, gives the
complete technical specification on the AD1200 series of cards.
The Cumulative Index covers the complete contents of
the manual.

Introduction.____________
This chapter describes the features of the range of AD1200
cards highlighting the differences between them, discusses the
fundamentals of Analogue to Digital conversion, Digital to
Analogue conversion and explains exactly how the AD1200
range implements these.
Downwards compatibility with the DT2811 is discussed as
well as the extra high performance features that distinguish the
AD1200 range, this improved design whilst retaining exact
compatibility with other manufacturers products gives AD1200
extreme flexibility in its application and use.
Converter throughput, Programmable Gain input, interrupt
and DMA driven i/o are explained together with a complete
description of the AD1200’s timing and control modes.
Note that throughout this manual reference is made to the
AD1200 series as either AD1200 series or as AD12XX card,
meaning that this information is common to all cards in the
AD1200 family.
When AD1210, AD1211, AD1220, AD1221 or the term
’AD1200 card’ the information is specific to those particular
cards mentioned.
