    SH ARC-66 Version 03.00 1. Introduction The SH ARC-66 is a 16 bit ARCNET card for computers with an ISA bus. The card is conceived for the use in computers for office communications as well as in industrial computers. Both alternatively available interfaces, coax and TWP, ensure a maximum of flexibility.

    Please also note the various terminations in the following chapter. 3.5 Bus Termination Every network line must be terminated. If the SH ARC-66 forms the end of a line, it has to be terminated there. There are two ways of termination: externally: here the line termination is attached externally (as BNC ●...

    The controller COM90C66 is not (as of 2009) available as a ROHS conforming part. SOHARD Embedded Systems assures that all other components, the board and all other materials applied for the production of the SH ARC-66 are ROHS compliant. Thus the COM90C66 has to be disposed of separately. 9. Support In case of problems when operating the device please be sure to have read the manual before contacting us.
