    Arcom Flash filing System (AFFS). ROM-DOS 6.22, a low-cost ‘work-alike’ of MS-DOS 6.22 is pre-loaded onto the Flash drive. The ELAN-104 has a 16-bit Master only PC/104 interface which supports a wide range PC/104 modules including Arcom’s AIM104 range. On-board peripherals include COM1 and COM3 (RS-232), COM2 (RS-485), a floppy disk controller, hard disk (IDE) controller, a parallel port (LPT1) and PS/2 mouse interface.
  • Page 6 J583 ELAN-104 2192-09102-000-000 Arcom also manufacture a range of PC/104 modules for use with the ELAN-104. These include opto-isolated digital and analogue I/O, relay output, CAN interface, multi-port serial communications and ethernet. Data sheets and manuals are available from the Arcom website or the Fax-on-Demand service (see front of manual).

The ELAN-104 does not require ±12v to operate and does not have an on-board ±12v generator so if any of the PC/104 boards connected to the ELAN-104 require +12v or -12v power (such as the AIM104-SER4) these voltages must be connected to PL5.

    NOTE: Any additional drives connected to the IDE connector will be allocated as the C:\ drive. When adding a hard drive to the ELAN-104 the hard drive should be configured as the C:\ drive in the BIOS set-up. The AFFS will then reallocate Flash drive as the D:\ drive or the next available drive letter.
