The DS817 contains the following board elements:
n Status LEDs display the current status of the connection. These
LEDs can be used for troubleshooting purposes:
n A lit yellow LED indicates that the connection between the host
PC and a dSPACE box (or DS830) is ready for communication.
n A lit red LED indicates that the active connection between the
host PC and a dSPACE box (or DS830) uses a fiber‑optic cable.
n A lit green LED indicates that data is being sent or received.
Directly after power‑up the green LED lights up three times
shortly, followed by a longer break. This indicates that the host
interface is providing the required 33 MHz PCI clock frequency.
n Fiber optic connectors are used for the optical link to the DS814
Link Board (Box) or DS830. The DS817 provides one receiver port
(RX) and one transmitter port (TX).
n Patch cable connector is an RJ45 connector. It is used for the link
via patch cable to the DS814 Link Board (Box), DS830 or
MicroAutoBox.
Components
Matching link cables (fiber optic or crossed-over patch cable) are
delivered with the hardware package. Use only these cables.
