You can connect an external clock signal to

AICKI

and/or

AOCKI

.

 When using an external clock,

AICKO

outputs the pulse generated from

AOCKI

, and

AOCKO

outputs the

pulse generated from

AOCKI

 When using the internal clock,

AICKO

outputs the

ADC scan clock, and

AOCKO

outputs the

DAC scan

clock.

Digital I/O

You can connect up to 16 digital I/O lines to screw terminals

DIO0

through

DIO15

. The terminals have 47 k

resistors that you can configure for pull-up or down using an internal jumper. The default configuration is
pull-down.

You can use the digital I/O terminals to detect the state of any TTL-level input. Refer to the schematic in Figure
7.
If you set the switch to the +5 V input, DIO0 reads TRUE (1). If you move the switch to GND, DIO0 reads
FALSE (0).

Pull-up/down configuration

Each of the 16 DIO bits on the USB-1208HS-4AO has a 47

kΩ pull-up/pull-down resistor. To configure these

bits for either a +5 V pull-up or a 0 V pull-down option, you must open the USB-1208HS-4AO case to access
the three-pin jumper labeled W34.

The pull-up/pull-down voltage is common to all of the internal 47

kΩ resistors.

To open the case and set the W34 jumper, do the following.

1. Turn over the USB-1208HS-4AO and rest it on its top on a flat, stable surface.

2. Peel off the four rubber feet on the bottom of the module to access the screws.

3. Remove the four screws shown in Figure 8 from the bottom of the device.

4. Holding both the top and bottom sections of the module, turn it back over, rest it on the surface, and

carefully remove the top section of the case.

5. Set the jumper to either pull-up or pull-down (see Figure 9 and Figure 10).
