X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 User's Manual Appendix: X-I/O Module Option • 105
Board Installation
Installing an X-I/O Module to an existing X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 installation takes only a few minutes.
Install the X-I/O board into the host system as follows:
• Power off the computer system that has the installed X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 board.
• Insert the X-I/O module into any free PCI slot (no PCI electrical connections are used), securing
the bracket.
• Connect the X-I/O module 16 pin ribbon cable from J23 to the X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 board J6.
• Power on the computer again.
• For new X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 and X-I/O module installations, simply follow the procedure to
install Sapera and the X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 driver (start with "
Sapera LT Library Installation"
on
page 12).
X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 and X-I/O Driver Update
• If both Sapera and X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 driver need to be installed, follow the procedure
"Sapera and Board Driver Upgrades" on
page 12. This procedure steps through the upgrade of
both Sapera and the board driver—typically required when installing the X-I/O module in the
field.
• If the X64 Xcelera-CL PX4 installation already has the required Sapera and board driver
version, install the X-I/O module and perform a firmware update as described in "
Executing the
Firm
ware Loader from the Start Menu" on page 15.
X-I/O Module External Connections to the DB37
Users can assemble their interface cable, using some or all of the signals available on the X-I/O module
DB37. Use a male DB37 with thumb screws for a secure fit. Wiring type should meet the needs of the
imaging environment.
For the external signals Trigger Input, Shaft Encoder Input, and Strobe output, now available on the
DB37, refer "J4: External Signals Connector" o
n page 89 to for signal details.
