Command Register 4

This register allows multiplexing of certain A/D conversion logic signals. This enables the
interval scanning and A/D conversion signals to be available at the I/O connector and allows the
I/O connector pins to externally drive these signals.

ECLKRCV

When cleared, this bit enables EXTCONV* pulses applied at the
EXTCONV* pin on the connector to cause conversions when
ECLKDRV is cleared. When set, ECLKRCV inhibits
EXTCONV* pulses from causing conversions. This bit is cleared
on board reset.

/D

This bit along with jumper W4 selects the analog input mode of the
Lab-PC+. When clear, it selects the single-ended mode. In this
case, multiplexer 1 selects Channels 0-7 specified by the channel
select bits, and multiplexer 2 selects AISENSE/AIGND. If W4 is
configured in SE mode, AISENSE/AIGND gets tied to analog
ground. This is the RSE mode. If W4 is configured as DIFF,
AISENSE/AIGND does not get tied to analog ground. This is the
NRSE mode. When this bit is set, the differential mode of input is
selected. Now W4 must be in the DIFF setting. This is the DIFF
mode. In this mode, Mux 1 and Mux 2 select channel pairs (0,1),
(2,3), (4,5) or (6,7) depending on the channel selection bits. This
bit defaults to zero on reset, thus choosing the single-ended mode.
Refer to the following table for choosing the appropriate mode.
