What’s Inside?
Disassembling the PCWS 2015
CF Riser Cards
Like all recent MICROS Workstations, the PCWS 2015 includes a CF Card
slot accessible from the IO Panel. It can be used for the available Recovery CF
Cards. Also, CF Cards of virtually any size can added for removable mass
storage. With the introduction of the PCWS 2015 System Board Revision D,
the DMA Enabled CF Card used in the WS5A returns.
SATA CF Riser XBRG15 (Revision C System Board Only)
The PCWS 2015 with a Revision C board uses a version of the CF Riser
Card called the SATA CF Riser Card. Unlike the original CF Riser Card,
the SATA CF Riser Card contains active circuitry in the form of a SATA to
IDE bridge and uses a modified CF bracket as shown below.
The SATA CF Riser Card installs in the same footprint as the original CF
Riser Card but does not attach to the IDE1 connector. In other words, it will
not install in any MICROS workstation with the exception of the PCWS
2015 with a Revision C System Board.
The SATA CF Riser Card includes two connectors, one for data and one for
power. Figure 3-9 displays the power and data cables that must be attached
to the Revision C System Board.
