C2C-Link Setup
How to setup a C2C-Link?
General Procedure
- C2C-Link hardware setup. This step is specific to each C2C-Link Configuration. Refer to sections hereafter.
- GenAPI setup. Assign a value to the
C2CLinkConfiguration
GenTL Device feature.
IntraCard C2C-Link Configuration Hardware Setup
This configuration exclusively uses FPGA internal resources to build the C2C-Link interconnect; it doesn't require any additional hardware!
IntraPC C2C-Link Configuration Hardware Setup
This configuration requires one accessory cable such as the
Insert a C2C-Link female connector of the C2C-Link cable into the C2C-Link pin header connector of each participating Coaxlink cards.
InterPC C2C-Link Configuration Hardware Setup
This configuration requires one
In each participating PC:
- Install
1636 InterPC C2C-Link Adapter into a free slot and secure the bracket. - Connect the adapter to a power source. Refer to Adapter Powering.
- Using one
3303 C2C-Link Ribbon Cable , bind together the C2C-Link connectors of all the participating cards together with the C2C-Link of the adapter card. - Using LAN Cables, interconnect the adapters. Refer to InterPC Interconnect.
