NPACKING THE
The hardware is shipped in an ESD protective container. Before unpacking the hardware, make sure that this
takes place in an environment with controlled static electricity. The following recommendations should be
followed:
•
Make sure your body is discharged to the static voltage level on the floor, table and system chassis by
wearing a conductive wrist-chain connected to a common reference point.
•
If a conductive wrist-chain is not available, touch the surface where the board is to be put (like table,
chassis etc.) before unpacking the board.
•
Leave the board only on surfaces with controlled static characteristics, i.e. specially designed anti static
table covers.
•
If handling the board over to another person, touch this persons hand, wrist etc. to discharge any static
potential.
IMPORTANT:
Never put the hardware on top of the conductive plastic bag in which the hardware is
shipped. The external surface of this bag is highly conductive and may cause rapid static
discharge causing damage. (The internal surface of the bag is static dissipative.)
Inspect the hardware to verify that no mechanical damage appears to have occurred.
Please report any discrepancies or damage to your distributor or to AcQuisition
Technology immediately and do not install the hardware.

ONFIGURATION
A VME3XX combinational product comes in the form of an i4000/NP2 M-module carrier board for VMEbus
equipped with four M3XX M-modules. Before usage, board settings such as jumper settings and dipswitch
settings of each board must be verified and adapted if required. For changing board settings the M-modules
must be removed from the i4000 according to the disassembly instructions, after configuration the M-modules
must be mounted on the carrier board according the assembly instructions. Disassembly and assembly
instructions can be found in the i4000 user manual. A description of the board settings can be found in the
user manuals of the individual components.

A VME3XX combination product comes with example software. The example software is available in ANSI-C
source code and consists of an APIS compatible function library specific to the type of M-module used, and
APIS platform support for a wide variety of operating systems. APIS, AcQ Platform Interface Software, is a
software concept which provides a platform abstraction layer. In APIS based example software platform
dependent issues such as hardware access, timing function and interrupts are handled by APIS platform
support software which is available for various platforms. A platform is defined as a combination of hardware
architecture and Operating System. APIS is an open source standard and by using the APIS programmer's
manual APIS implementations for unsupported platforms can be developed with little effort.
