Click on “Programmer’s Interface” in order to install the provided Software Library
which allows experienced developers to build their own applications for the module
control (see §
); a C example program file is installed too.
4.1.2. Hardware Installation
1. The A2818 is a plug-and-play PCI card and must be plugged into one PCI slot
(either 5 V or 3.3 V supplied, see §
) of the PC motherboard.
2. Connect the TX connector of the A2818 to the RX connector of the first V2718 of
the CONET network, via the optical fiber cable.
3. If you are using I-type cables (see §
), then connect the TX connector of the
first V2718 of the CONET network to the RX connector of the second V2718 (if
existing) and so on, until the last module in the chain, whose TX connector must
be connected to the A2818 RX connector ; if only one V2718 is present, then its
TX connector must be connected to the RX connector of the A2818.
If you have only one V2718 in your network and you are using X-type cables
(see §
), then simply plug it into the TX/RX connectors of the A2818 and
V2718.
4. Now the network is ready for operation.
