Introduction
The AdeptForce VME Force Interface (VFI) board is a 6U single-slot VME board
designed to control force-sensing for use with the AdeptForce VME product. The
VFI board is the interface to the force sensor that is installed on a robot or motion
device. The VFI board processes data from the force sensor and then makes those
force readings available to user programs.
See the AdeptForce VME User's Guide for complete information on installation,
configuration, and operation of the AdeptForce VME product.
