Controller modules
Audio communications ports module
Firmware modules.
At the firmware level, this board is made up of the following modules:
- PIC microcontroller: manages board communications and start-up.
- FPGA programmable device: manages the alarms and the audio channels of the 5
high speed links (including its routing).
The firmware versions can be brought up to date by using the ”BC2000D Firmware Upgrade”
software application.
host port, A
type connector.
'GPIO' DB9 type connector: 4 general
purpose inputs and 3 general purpose
outputs with a common ground.
'ETHERNET' connector: allows to connect
the controller module through a switch (or
directly, by means of a crossed network
cable) to the computer (with the setup and
real time control software).
NC.' RJ45 type connector:
al synchronism interface able to
accept and generate synchronizing
signals in AES11 formats. The AES11
synchronism output is follower of the
