  • Page 14 [Figure 4-6. Camera Control LVDS Digital Output Circuit] This picture below shows that a general input circuit is used at cPCI-FRM11 board. It is a serial input signal through Camera-link Cable. When serial input signal is used by general input, it is mapped by Digital input 8 and it can read a value of it.
  • Page 15 User’s Manual (Rev 1.1) [Description of SW1] The cPCI-FRM11 board is designed of four maximum cPCI-FRM11 boards at the same time so as usable. Distribution of each board sets it up through 4 pin switch (SW1) in a board.
  • Page 16 To install your cPCI-FRM11 board in your PC, follow the steps described in the document “How to install PCI DAQ Board” provided by DAQ System. If the document is missing, you can get it from www.daqsystem.com. The PCIe-FRM11 board is completely Plug & Play. There are no switches or jumpers to set.
