IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
It is very important for the user to consider the possible adverse
effects of power, wiring, component, sensor, or software failures
in designing any type of control or monitoring system. This is
especially important where economic property loss or human life
is involved. It is important that the user employ satisfactory
overall system design. It is agreed between the Buyer and
Acromag, that this is the Buyer's responsibility.
1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The APC8620/8621 card is a personal computer Peripheral
Component Interconnect (PCI) bus card and is a carrier for the
Industrial I/O Pack (IP) mezzanine board field I/O modules. The
carrier board provides a modular approach to system assembly,
since each carrier can be populated with any combination of
analog input/output, digital input/output, communication, etc. IP
modules. Thus, the user can create a board which is customized
to the application. This saves money and space - a single carrier
board populated with IP modules may replace several dedicated
function PCI bus boards. The APC8620/8621 non-intelligent
carrier board provides impressive functionality at low cost.
