The OCC supports two XMC/PMC slots and one mini PCI express slot. Each of these
form factors are industrial type form factors that are widely used in the industry.
A standard OCC uses one slot of the mainframe. When adding an OCC, it is recommend
tostartusingthelastslotofthemainframerst.Thispreferenceonlyexistsbecause
oftherstslotsofeachmainframeareattachedtothemainframesDigitalEvent/
Timer/Counter connectors. The OCC has no support for these connectors, so it is best
tousedataacquisitioncardsintherstslots.TheOCCcanbeusedineveryslotofthe
mainframe. To enable the use of a mainframe at least one acquisition card needs to be
installed.
