PCI 6503 Ports

Hi all,
 
I have created a Virtual Device of PCI-6503 and try to list the "DI.ports" using the Property Node in LabVIEW. It list the following in an array.
Dev1/port0
Dev1/port1
Dev1/port2
Dev1/port0_16
Dev1/port0_24
 
Port 0, 1 and 2 makes sense. What is "Dev1/port0_16 & Dev1/port0_24"?
 
Thanks,
logic

Hi Logic,

The latter two ports you are asking about are basically a combination of two ports and then all three ports into one port.  Dev1/port0_16 is combining 16 lines (most likely ports 0 and 1) into one port, and Dev1/port0_24 is combining all 24 lines into one port. 

I hope this was helpful!
