Backplane Bus
Limited bus selection is provided to give the user more control,
which may be useful under certain circumstances such as running
certain combinations of modules. If a bus is selected that cannot be
used because of the shelf/slot configuration, the Circuit Manager
prompts the user with an appropriate message. Initially, the bus
selection displayed in the Add Circuit menu/form is Non (None).

When building circuits you may need to separately activate the
circuit when you are ready to do so. You activate a configured
circuit by selecting the command:
I) activate circuit
from the
Circuit Manager menu.
However, when building a permanent circuit, the Circuit Manager
automatically activates the circuit when you apply the Setup
command.

The circuit will use Bus B between modules. Bus B offers a maximum of 2.048 Mbit/s
bandwidth in an AS2000 shelf.
C
The circuit will use Bus C between modules. Bus C offers a maximum of 2.048 Mbit/s
bandwidth in an AS2000 shelf.

Circuit Manager will compute the best
selection for which bus to use and assign
the circuit automatically.
For most cases Auto will be the best selection.
Circuit Manager uses the
