Description:
Tiger System:
The Tiger system provides a case that houses multiple control cards and allows for future expansion. It
is available in 6, 8, or 16 slot configurations. The standard setup comes with +24, +5, & -5 VDC. The
power indicator shows that 5 VDC is on. The only card that comes standard with all Tiger systems is the
TIG/COM card.
TIG/COM Card:
The COM card is the base of the system. It provides communication to all cards installed into
the controller system via a backplane communication bus. The COM card actively monitors and
supervises all communications and inputs to the system and distributes the information to all
cards. Each card discerns what information to listen to and communicates with the COM card
to give responses on the USB port.
JOYSTICK / JOYPOD Input:
This port allows the attachment of the ASI JOYPOD unit. The joypod unit has an analog joystick,
multiple high resolution digital input knobs, as well as several switches and buttons. The COM card
monitors the input from the joypod and shares the information to all cards. Several serial USB port
commands can be used to set up which cards use the information and what it controls.
USB to PC Input:
This port allows the controller to be connected to a PC via USB which creates a virtual com port through
which high speed serial communication can be established. See the Tiger Programming manual for
more information.
