-===== Introduction ===== +
-This guide explains the use of the //Static I/O// instrument in WaveForms. This instrument is used to interact with a Test & Measurement Device's digital input/output channels through simulated buttons, LEDs, displays, and sliders. +
----- +
-===== Prerequisites ===== +
-  * A Digilent Test & Measurement Device with Digital Input/Output Channels +
-  * A Computer with WaveForms Software Installed +
- +
----- +
- +
-==== 1. Opening the Static I/O ==== +
- +

-<WRAP column half> +
-=== 1.1 === +
-Plug in the Test & Measurement Device, then start WaveForms and make sure the device is connected. +
- +
-If no device is connected to the host computer when WaveForms launches, the **Device Manager** will be launched. Make sure that the device is plugged in and turned on, at which point it will appear in the Device Manager's device list (1). Click on the device in the list to select it, then click the Select button (2) to close the Device Manager. +
- +
-**Note:** //"Demo" devices are also listed, which allow the user to use WaveForms and create projects without a physical device.// +
- +
-**Note:** //The Device Manager can be opened by clicking on the "Connected Device" button in the bottom right corner of the screen (3), or by selecting "Device Manager" from the "Settings" menu at the top of the screen.// +

-=== 2.1 Software Display Setup === +
-This demo does not require any hardware setup but relies on the //Logic Analyzer// and //Pattern Generator// tools in Waveforms. To set up these tools and view them simultaneously, follow these steps: +

-//This section walks through the various configuration options for the //Static I/O// interface. These configurations can be used to interact with and display digital signals and circuits either with the previously explored tools in Waveforms or with external digital circuits. However, the scope of this section will be limited to only configuration with brief application discussions.// +

-=== 3.1 Group Bus Assignments === +
-By default, the Static I/O tool opens with all the available DIO lines from your Test and Measurement Device in groups of 8, descending from left to right and top to bottom all configured as LED state indicators for each line. To change a particular group, click on the group configuration drop down menu located on the left of the group row. This menu includes: +
-  * Bit IO: (Input/Output) Last IO, LED, Button, Switch (Discussed further in Section 3.2) +
-  * Slider (Output)  +
-  * Progress Bar (Input)  +
-  * 7 Segment Display (Input)  +

-==3.1.1 Slider== +
-Selecting "Slider" from the group assignments drop down menu will group those eight DIO lines into an 8-bit binary value output that can be changed by either moving the slider left to right or by entering a value between 0 and 255 in the value text field located to the right of the slider bar. The highest digital line is the most significant bit (MSB) and each digital line will get the corresponding bit value related to the bus value. +

-==3.1.2 Progress Bar== +
-Selecting "Progress Bar" from the group assignments drop down menu will group those eight DIO lines into an 8-bit bus input that displays the binary value of the 8-bit bus as a progress bar (increasing from left to right) and displaying the exact value (from 0 to 255) in the text field to the right of the progress bar. The highest digital line is the most significant bit (MSB) and each digital line will get the corresponding bit value related to the bus value. +

-==3.1.3 Seven Segment Display== +
-Selecting "7 Segment" from the group assignments drop down menu will group those eight DIO lines into a 7 segment display input. Each of the eight digital lines correspond to one of the segments or the decimal point as seen in the picture to the right. A logic high level will illuminate the segment associated with that DIO line.  +
