5.1.2.7 CPU Card
The CPU card is found plugged into the PC/104 bus connectors of the I/O card. The CPU card
operates with a microprocessor running at 800 MHz. The CPU card has a built-in flash hard disk
drive which contains the operating software, parameters and calibration points for the system.
The processing power of the MPR E-Scan is performed by the microprocessor on the CPU core
module. The layout for this card, with standard cable connections, is shown on the above figure
for the CPU card layout. When the Comm/LPT card connection board is supplied, cables also
run between the parallel printer port and the connector board. The optional com ports cable also
connects to the CPU core module card, as shown in the RS232 Terminal Block Mounting Kit
addendum.
This card is always installed on the I/O board and additional cards such as the 422 optional card
are then installed above the CPU card.
The CPU card is supplied with a Compact Flash memory card that plugs into the socket on the
bottom side of the CPU card.
Please note that all arrows point to Pin 1 of each connector in the above drawing.
