Additional Support
This chapter provides additional information related to the modules supported, together with
instructions that can be used to enhance the functionality and efficiency of the LinPAC AM335x
PAC module.
7.1. Support for N-Port Modules
N-port communication
modules provide
two
or
four serial ports
and can be inserted into the slot
of an LP-8x2x/9x2x embedded controller. In this way, additional serial ports can be used on the
LP-8x2x/9x2x embedded controller, meaning that the maximum number of serial ports available
on the LP-8x2x/9x2x will be expanded to
thirty-four
.
LP-8x2x
The LP-8x2x embedded controller is a multi-tasking uint, meaning that all the serial ports can be
controlled simultaneously.
The number
of
each serial port on the
I-8114W and I-8112iW modules
are presented in Figures 7.1-1 and 7.1-2. The information illustrated in Figure 7.1-5 is for the
LP-8121 only and is
fixed
based on their slot position.
