IRECTION 2392751-100, REVISION 3VIVID™ 4 SERVICE MANUAL
5-38 Section 5-1 - Overview
5-5-4 Multifunction I/O Controller
The Multifunction I/O Controller provides two additional serial COMs, COM3 and COM4, that are used
to support the modem functions.
5-5-5 Frame Grabber (RFI systems only)
The Frame Grabber (see Figure 5-22 below) grabs the YC video signal from the VCR Output and
converts it to PCI data, allowing the system to present playback images from the VCR recording.
NOTE: This operation was previously handled as a function of the Image Port on Vivid™ 4 systems with the
RFT configuration.
5-5-6 PC2IP
The PCI2IP enables the transfer and reception of data and control signals between the Front End Crate
and the Back End Processor via the Image Port Board. The PC2IP adapts data from the IP to the PCI
Bus of the CPU. The PCI2IP is sometimes referred to as the PCI Bridge.
5-5-7 Plug and Scan Card and Battery
The Plug Scan enables the Standby Mode during Plug and Scan operations, and performs a legal
shutdown of the operating system when the power lines go below preset values. The P&S does not
support the operation of the unit during a power failure, but rather enables the shutdown of the Back
End Processor to Standby Mode and supports Standby Mode while there is no power supply. The P&S
battery degrades with time and should be replaced, as described in Chapter 10 - Periodic Maintenance.
5-5-8 Network Card Onboard
The Network Card Onboard enables the Vivid™ 4 to operate in a standard LAN network (EchoPac
environment), which enables the system to connect to external applications, saving or retrieval of data
from network residents.
5-5-9 SCSI Card
The SCSI Card supports the operation of the MOD. The SCSI Card is situated on the PCI Bus of the
CPU, and is controlled by the CPU.
