Hardware Installation

Introduction

Hardware installation involves configuration of the following Titan/cPCI products:

„The Titan/cPCI-2 /cPCI-4 adapters

Note: Please refer to Chapter 3: Software Installation for installation of your Titan/cPCI board under certain operating systems.

Configuration

Compact Peripheral Component Interconnect (cPCI) bus architecture offers a feature called Plug and Play (sometimes referred to as PnP). This feature automatically identifies and configures installed devices each time the system boots.

In most CompactPCI compliant computers, the system BIOS will automatically detect and configure the Titan/cPCI adapter. However in some cases a system BIOS cannot resolve all of the requests for resources in the system. This often occurs with the assignment of system interrupts, since this is usually the scarcest resource.

If this occurs, the driver will signal that a given resource has not been assigned, which requires the user to assign system resources manually. After reboot, determine with the BIOS setup utility what resources have been assigned to the cPCI devices and then do manual assignments of free resources to your cPCI device. Reboot your system. If the BIOS cannot find a suitable configuration please contact Connect Tech Technical Support.

Baud Rate Selection

Titan/cPCI adapters offer ideal solutions for applications requiring serial communications up to 1.8432 Mbps. Baud rates are software selectable, so therefore please refer to Chapter 3: Software Installation for configuring the baud rates under certain operating systems.
