Caution - Turn off power before installing. Do not attempt to insert or remove any board into a powered host. Such action will void warranties.
The I/O modules have two opposing headers and two mounting holes. Headers and mounting holes match mating headers and stand offs on the DIO main board.
To mount an I/O Module, remove jackscrews from connectors J1 and J2 of the I/O module and then carefully insert the connectors to the appropriate cutouts in the front panel. Rotate the I/O module down to the main board and mate the two 80 pins headers. Install screws to the stand offs and jack screws to J1 and J2.
To install an I/O module on a GX5150 master board, you first need to remove the Timing Module. Please refer to the GX515X User's Guide.
An I/O module is installed at the factory when the GX5150 or GX5151 is purchased. The GX5910 TTL I/O module is the default.
GX5150 and GX5151 boards require an I/O module daughter card for any UUT. The I/O modules provide drive current, termination and special functions, like non-TTL logic family signal level conversion.
