Getting

Started

5. Secure the card to the chassis with a screw.

6. Replace the system/chassis cover.

7. Connect the power plug to a power source, then turn on

the system.

Configuration

All PCI/PCI Express cards on your system are configured individu-
ally. Because configuration is controlled by the system and the
software, no jumper setting is required for base address, DMA,
and interrupt IRQ. Configuration is subject to change with every
boot of the system as new PCI/PCI Express

®

cards are added or

removed.

Troubleshooting

If your system fails to boot or if you experience erratic operation
with your PCI/PCI Express card in place, an interrupt conflict may
have been generated (such as when the BIOS Setup is incorrectly
configured). Refer to the system’s BIOS documentation for details.

2.3 Selecting Cables and Termination Board

Since the PCIe-7360 is a high-speed digital I/O card, impedance
matching is important in eliminating signal reflection generated by
cabling or PCB trace. The following recommended cables and ter-
mination board can improve signal quality during high-speed sig-
nal transfer.

DIN-68H – Termination board with one 68-pin SCSI-VHDCI con-
nector and user selectable impedance. See “ADLINK DIN-68H” on
page 77. for more information.

ACL-10279 – 68-pin SCSI-VHDCI cable with 50Ω impedance

SMB-SMB-1M – SMB to SMB cable, 1 M, for sample clock in/out

SMB-BNC-1M – SMB to BNC cable, 1 M, for sample clock in/out
