INTENDED PURPOSE OF THE BOARD

The board APCI-7800 must be inserted in a PC with PCI 5V/32-bit slots,
which is used as electrical equipment for measurement, control and
laboratory use as defined in the norm IEC 61010-1.
The PC is to comply with the norm IEC61326 for measurement, control and
laboratory use and with the specifications for EMC protection.
Products complying with these specifications bear the CE mark.
The board APCI-7800 provides the personal computer (PC) with 8-port
asynchronous serial interface for the communication with external devices.
The operating mode of the interface depends on the SI modules installed.
The board is to be connected to the peripheral through a shielded cable,
which shielding should be grounded on both ends.
Minimum specifications of the connection cable:
- metallized plastic hoods
- shielded cable
- cable shield folded back and firmly screwed to the connector housing.
The board supports serial communication through 8 asynchronous serial
ports. The intended purpose of the board depends on the following
parameters (See Table 1-1).
