Board I/O Requirements and Restrictions
Table 1 lists each of the boards which may be installed in the Profile system and
the recommended slots, possible alternatives, and restrictions for each board. If
more than one slot is recommended or possible for a board, those slots are listed
in the order of preference.
Video Router I/O Connections
Now let’s look at the video router connections available at slots J5–J15. Table 2 is
a board location chart with the video router input and output connections. In this
table:
• The Slot column lists each slot on the motherboard connected to the video
router.
• The Board column is where you write the boards currently installed and the
name of the board you want to install.
• The Inputs column identifies data input connections available to the slots
(boards) from the video router. The numbers in the blocks correspond to the
order input connections are assigned at the video router connector.
• The Outputs column identifies data output connections available from the
slots (boards) to the video router. The numbers in the blocks correspond to
the order output connections are assigned at the video router connector.
• The shaded blocks in the diagram indicate video router connections shared
between slots. A shared connection is available to either slot, but not both at
the same time. For instance:
- The shaded blocks between slots J5 and J6, slots J7 and J8, slots J10 and
J11, and slots J12 and J13 indicate shared input connections.
- The shaded blocks between slots J8 and J9, slots J10 and J11, and slots
J12 and J13 indicate shared output connections.
