  • Page 7: What's New

    What's new? The ibaFOB-4i-X and respectively the ibaFOB-2io-X and ibaFOB-2i-X card represent the new generation of iba's fiber optic PC boards. These boards extend the existing board family and will replace the previous ibaFOB-cards in long-term. The new boards are 100% compatible on the fiber optical bus side while in the PC the interface and dual port ram layout differ between the old and new boards.

    (dot is off). 8.3.3 Fiber Optic Interface of ibaFOB-4i-X The ibaFOB-4i-X provides four ST type jacks (grey) for the fiber optic receivers.  If the card was configured for external synchronization, e. g. for operation with an ibaBM-SLM, the first (top) input channel needs to be connected with the external device for proper function (otherwise the whole PC process will be stopped).

    512 analog and 512 digital in- put channels, with practically no delay. To do this connect the ibaFOB-4o-X to the ibaFOB-4i-X on the light grey 14-pin connec- tor. The ibaFOB-4o-X module mirrors the input and output signals.

  • Page 20: Fiber Optic Interfaces Of Ibafob-4O-X (Optional)

    For applications which require only two in-/output channels, the use of the ibaFOB-2io-X is recommended. If the module is used for mirror function then another iba system may be supplied with the same input signals, e. g. ibaPDA and ibaLogic. Therefore, connect the module with the light grey 14-pin connector on the ibaFOB-2io-X or ibaFOB-4i-X card.

    The main branch General in the tree view, tab Interrupt Info, shows the interrupt counter. The counter iba-Interrupts must have 1000 increments per second! If not, the interrupt master is missing. In this case check the card settings. In the dialog box of the link level (see 9.1.1), tab Info, you can see if the communication between ibaFOB card and ibaPADU device is working by checking the baud rate value.
