The 2U frame has 4 single board slots, the 3U frame has 6 board slots, the 4U frame has
8 slots, and the 5U frame has 10 slots. Each slot supports power and control connections
to the I/O boards. When a board is installed into a slot it may use more than one slot. For
example, the SMX 1616 VGA board uses four slots. The slots that a board covers are not
available for other I/O board installation until that multi-slot board has been removed (see
on page 10 for details).
NOTE: To customize the SMX unit, use the SMX Configurator program, available at
numbers).
