1 DESCRIPTION
The one-wide CAMAC 185 module provides basic digital
monitor facilities. The module furnishes 32 bits of monitor
organized as two 16 bits words. The module also provides
two pulsed outputs. The printed circuit board for this
module provides a variety of input and output conventions
that are easily modified by the end user.
The monitor lines are TTL compatible and normally active
high with 1000 ohms to ground terminated inputs. Active low
inputs and pulled-up inputs are available options to the
user.
The pulsed outputs are normally one second in duration.
Electrically separate pulsed outputs are available at the
module front panel in addition to the rear I/O connector.
These lines are are available as either active high or
active low outputs. When configured in the active high
output option, the output drivers are 74F3037 gates. When
configured in the active low output option, the pulsed lines
are sourced from a 75446 peripheral driver. These drivers
are well suited to relay control, each being capable of
sinking up to 400 ma loads. In this configuration, each
output is diode clamped to +24 volts for transient
suppression and is also pulled-up to +24 volts with a 100K
ohm resistor. The diode clamps and pull-up resistors may be
connected to +5 volts rather than to +24 volts by means of a
soldered wire option.
Upon clear command or powering-up, the pulsed outputs are
set to the off state.

All codes return module Q and X immediately, except
as noted. This module never asserts LAM.

the pulse outputs off.
F(29) A(0) Pulse Output P0
----------
Q is conditional for this operation. If
the P0 Output is active, Q will not be
returned.
F(29) A(1) Pulse Output P1
----------
Q is conditional for this operation. If
the P1 Output is active, Q will not be
returned.

4 CAMAC 185 MODULE - FRONT PANEL
The CAMAC 184 module has the following front
panel features:
N led: Red (stretched)
P1 Output: Green led (not stretched)
Lemo (74F3037 or 75446 driver)
P0 Output: Green led (not stretched)
Lemo (74F3037 or 75446 driver)

5 SPARES
A supply of CAMAC 185 operational spares is maintained on
the second floor of the Linac Annex. Spares are normally
provided with active high pulse outputs and active high
monitor inputs terminated with 1000 ohms to ground. Pulsed
outputs are normally set to one second +/- 10%.
6 INPUT/OUTPUT OPTIONS
For active low inputs - substitute 74LS541 at IC
Locations #5, #6, #11, and #12. Change 1K ohm pull-downs to
4.7K ohm pull-ups.
For active low P0 and P1 front panel outputs - remove
74F3037 at IC Location #20 and install 75446 at #19.
Install pull-up resistors to +5V or to +24V.
For active low P0 and P1 rear I/O outputs - remove
74F3037 at IC Location #13 and install 75446 at #7. Install
pull-up resistors to +5V or to +24V.
