Symptoms: Card acquisition bandwidth is less than expected
The Xtium-CL PX4 acquisition bandwidth is less than expected.
•
Review the system for problems or conflicts with other expansion boards or drivers.
•
Remove other PCI Express, PCI-32 or PCI-64 boards and check acquisition bandwidth again.
Engineering has seen this case where other PCI boards in some systems cause limitations in
transfers. Each system, with its combination of system motherboard and PCI boards, will be
unique and must be tested for bandwidth limitations affecting the imaging application.
•
Is the Xtium-CL PX4 installed in a PCI Express x16 slot?
Note that some computer's x16 slot may only support non x16 boards at x1 or not at all.
Check the computer documentation or test an Xtium-CL PX4 installation. The speed at which
the board is running can be viewed using the Diagnostic Tool provided with the driver.
•
Is the Xtium-CL PX4 installed in a PCI Express Gen1 slot?
Some older computers only have PCIe Gen1 slots. The Generation at which the board is
running can be viewed using the Sapera LT PCI Diagnostic or the Diagnostic Tool provided
with the driver.
