Accessory Port (Mcard) Interfaces; Installing A Micro Sd Card - Multitech Conduit MTCDT-L4E1 Hardware Manual

Accessory Port (mCard) Interfaces

The accessory card interface on the Conduit base board has the following interface options:
Interface
I2C
Serial UART
SDIO interface and/or SPI Interface
GPIO
Interrupts
PPS
USB 2.0
5 VDC 1 Amp supply
3.3 VDC 1 Amp supply
For accessory card specifications, regulatory content, and installation information, see the Accessory Card
information.

Installing a Micro SD Card

You need:
Phillips screwdriver
MicroSD memory card
To install or replace the SD card:
1. Disconnect power to the Conduit, if it is connected.
2. At the front of the Conduit, remove the screw that secures the MultiTech nameplate.
3. Locate the SD card at the left side of the opening on the underside of the PC board.

SETTING UP AND CONFIGURING THE DEVICE
Description
Used by all accessory cards. I2C is required for
Electronic Identification (EID) support on the accessory
card but can be used for other I2C devices. It should
supports standard (100 kHz) and/or fast (400 kHz) clock
speeds.
The I2C interface reserves the full block of EEPROM
address space for Electronic ID support, so we
recommend that you not attach any other EEPROM
devices to the interface. We recommend that you use a
24C04 part, because both address bits of the 24C04 are
connected to the AP interface allowing you to identify
four separate accessory port (AP) cards in a system.
Serial UART with HW flow control used by Serial
inteface based Accessory Cards
AP1 has option for SDIO or SPI interface, based on what
Accessory Card is installed. AP2 supports only SPI based
Accessory Cards.
Additional control pins for certain Accessory Cards.
Software defined interrupts. Can also be used as
additional control pins.
GPS generated Pulse-Per-Second signal used for
software timing. Default is 1 pulse/sec.
A standard USB 2.0 High Speed interface for USB based
Accessory Cards.
Used by all accessory cards.
