Checking the System Requirements
Before installing dSPACE’s hardware, you have to check whether your
hardware meets the system requirements.
Objective
Your host PC must fulfill the system requirements concerning:
n The dSPACE software and other required third-party software,
n The requirements for the hardware which is needed for
connecting the host PC and the expansion box.
This connection has to be established via a bus interface.
For details, refer to Appendix: System Requirements ( Software
Installation and Management Guide).
Host PC
If you want to install the DS1103 in an expansion box, the box must
fulfill the following requirements.
Required slots You need one free full-size ISA slot and two free
adjacent brackets (refer to the illustration in How to Install the
DS1103 on page 38). In addition, one free full-size ISA slot is
required by the DS814 (bus connection) or the slot CPU (Ethernet
connection).
Bus interface If you want to connect the expansion box to the host
PC via a bus interface, the DS814 has to be installed in the box.
A suitable dSPACE link board has to be installed in the host PC.
Slot CPU If you want to connect the expansion box to the host PC
via Ethernet, a slot CPU has to be installed in the box.
Keep in mind that the host PC requires a network adapter to establish
an Ethernet communication.
Expansion box
The resources in the host PC and in the expansion box needed by
your dSPACE boards depend on your installation, refer to Resource
Requirements of dSPACE Boards on page 31.
