Features of DS830 MultiLink Panel
You can connect several dSPACE boxes – expansion boxes and/or
MicroAutoBoxes – to one host PC. Each connection requires a
separate link board (PC) installed in the PC. The number of
dSPACE boxes you can connect to the PC is limited by the number of
free slots for link boards.
As an example, the following illustration shows how you can connect
four boxes to your PC. You require four link boards (PC) in the PC.
