Compatibility – PCI Express Base Specification v2.0 compliant PCI Express Endpoint. 1.4 Signal Interface Products This AcroPack module will mate directly to all Acromag AP carriers. Once connected, the module is accessed via a front panel connector. The cables and termination panels are also available. For optimum performance with the AP513 communication module, use of the shortest possible length of shielded I/O cable is recommended.
AcroPack modules, VPX I/O board products, and PCIe I/O Cards. The software is implemented as a library of “C” functions which link with existing user code to make possible simple control of all Acromag AcroPack modules. 1.6 References The following resources regarding AcroPack modules are available for download on Acromag’s website or by contacting your sales representative.
It is important that the user employ satisfactory overall system design. It is understood and agreed by the Buyer and Acromag that this is the Buyer's responsibility.
Refer to the specifications section for loading and power requirements. Be sure that the system power supplies are able to accommodate the power IMPORTANT: Adequate air requirements of the system boards, plus the installed Acromag board, circulation must be provided to within the voltage tolerances specified.
