1 INTRODUCTION
For Your Notes
The CIO-RELAY16 is a 16 channel relay interface board for ISA bus computers. The
board provides 16 Form C (SPDT) relays. The CIO-RELAY08 board is designed for
applications that require fewer relays and is identical to the RELAY16 board except
that only 8 relays are installed. The CIO-RELAY32 is two CIO-RELAY16s on a sin-
gle board while the CIO-RELAY24 is are CIO-RELAY32 with eight of the relays not
installed.
The /M versions (e.g. CIO-RELAY16/M and CIO-RELAY08/M) are identical to the
standard versions, but use Mercury wetted relays and offer quicker switch times, less
contact bounce and lower on-resistance than the standard models.
The CIO-RELAY16 family has been designed for control applications where a few
points of high voltage (or current) need to be controlled.
WARNING!
High voltages will be present on the CIO-RELAY16 family boards
when high voltage is connected to the CIO-RELAY16 connector.
Use extreme caution! Never handle the CIO-RELAY16 when sig-
nals are connected to the board through the connector.
DO NOT REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE PLATES FROM THE
CIO-RELAY16!
1.1 ACCESSORIES
The CIO-RELAY16 family are digital I/O boards with relay based signal conditioning
installed. Most accessory boards are intended to provide signal conditioning or easy
to access signal termination. In general, the CIO-RELAY16 will not require addi-
tional signal conditioning.
We recommend that under no circumstance should a screw terminal board be used to
connect high voltages to the CIO-RELAY16 series board. The CIO-RELAY16 is
intended to control high voltages. If you use a screw terminal board you will expose
yourself and others to those high voltage signals.
We recommend that you construct a safe cable to carry your signals directly from your
equipment to the CIO-RELAY16 connector.

Throughout this manual we use CIO-RELAY as a generic designation for the CIO-
RELAY08, CIO-RELAY16, CIO-RELAY24 and CIO-RELAY32. When required due
to the differences in the boards, the specific board name is used.

is successful, your board is installed correctly. If not, you likely have
a base address conflict, or have the base address switch set incorrectly.
Please refer to the next chapter for more information regarding selecting
and setting the base address.
d. If the Internal Test is completed successfully, you may want to check
that the I/O pins are working correctly. To check this select
External Test and follow the instruction provided. This will
require the use of an ohmmeter.

3 HARDWARE INSTALLATION
5.2 FORM C RELAYS (standard versions)
Shown here is the schematic for a form C relay as used on the standard CIO-
RELAY08, 16, 24 and 32.
3.1 Mercury whetted (/M) board special considerations
The Mercury whetted boards must be mounted in the computer such that they will
remain within 30 degrees of vertical. Note that installation of these boards in most
tower computer cases will require the tower be rested on its side for proper operation.
3.2 BASE ADDRESS
The base address switch controls the I/O location where the CPU can access the regis-
ters of the CIO-RELAY board.
The form C relay has a COMMON, normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC)
contact. When a 0 is written to the output, the common and NC are in contact. When a
1 is written to the output the common and NO are in contact.
The factory default is 300H (768D).
If you have a board installed at address 300H, you will have to choose a new address
from those available on your computer. You may use the list of PC I/O address
assignments found on the following page and add notes about the boards you have
installed in your computer.
5.3 FORM A RELAYS (/M versions)
Shown here is the schematic for a form A relay as used on mercury wetted (/M)
models.
Choose a new base address from those available and set the switch using the guide
below. Please note that the switch shown below is for the CIO-RELAY08 and CIO-
RELAY16 boards. Since the CIO-RELAY32 and CIO-RELAY24 board require 4 I/O
address, their base address switch does not provide switch 2. All other settings are
identical.

If address 300H is available on your computer, we recommend that you select it. for
your board. The software examples are written for base = 300H.
FORM A RELAY
The form A relay has COMMON and normally open (NO) connections. When a 0 is
written to the output, the common and NO are disconnected. When a 1 is written to
the output the common and NO are in contact.

3.3 WAIT STATE
CIO-RELAY24 and CIO-RELAY32 Connector
This connector is the center of the board. The connector for relays 0 through 15
is the connector that is closest to the computer back-plate. PINS corresponding
to relays 24 through 31 are not connected on the RELAY24 version.
The form A relays used on the /M versions
There is a wait state jumper on CIO-RELAY series boards. The factory default is
wait state disabled. You will probably never need the wait state because PC expan-
sion slot busses are limited to 8 or 10 MHz.
have NO and COM connections only!
If you were to get intermittent operation from your CIO-RELAY board, you may try
enabling the wait state to see if that solves the problem.
WARNING!
High voltages will be present on the CIO-RELAY boards when you
have connected high voltage inputs or outputs to the CIO-RELAY
connector. Use extreme caution! Never handle the CIO-RELAY
when signals are connected to the board.! DO NOT REMOVE
THE PROTECTIVE PLATES FROM THE CIO-RELAY.

5 CONNECTING TO RELAYS
4 PROGRAMMING
The CIO-RELAY boards are easy to program. Eight bit registers located at the base
address and the base address plus an offset are written to control relays or can be read
to determine the state of relays.
5.1 I/O CONNECTOR DIAGRAMS
The CIO-RELAY08 and CIO-RELAY16 boards use a single 50 pin connector for sig-
nal interfacing. The CIO-RELAY24 and CIO-RELAY32 use two 50 pin connectors.
The pin-outs of the connector are shown here.
In addition to direct I/O programming, the boards are fully supported by the powerful
Universal Library program as well as most third party application programs.

4.1 DIRECT I/O REGISTER PROGRAMMING
The CIO-RELAY family uses between one and four I/O addresses. Each address con-
trols 8 relays and the relays are controlled by writing to these registers. The base
address maps of the CIO-RELAY boards are shown below.
