Non responsive Advantech pci1760 card

Hi,
I have an Advantech pci 1760 card and am attempting to use it with the comedi 
driver and library. I can successfully query the card about it's 
characteristics using the comedilib program demo/info and get the following

overall info:
  version code: 0x000744
  driver name: adv_pci_dio
  board name: pci1760
  number of subdevices: 4
subdevice 0:
  type: 3 (digital input)
  number of channels: 8
  max data value: 1
  ranges:
    all chans: [0,5]
  command:
    not supported
subdevice 1:
  type: 4 (digital output)
  number of channels: 8
  max data value: 1
  ranges:
    all chans: [0,5]
  command:
    not supported
subdevice 2:
  type: 7 (timer)
  number of channels: 2
  max data value: -1
  ranges:
    all chans: [0,1]
  command:
    not supported
subdevice 3:
  type: 6 (counter)
  number of channels: 8
  max data value: 65535
  ranges:
    all chans: [0,1]
  command:
    not supported

However when I try to read any of the digital inputs I get apparently random 
values back in the range 0 to 247 and writing to the digital outputs has no 
discernable effects. Do I need to initialize the board with the driver or do 
something to make it work? I am now quite perplexed, and any assistance would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Emma
