DS MSS/00x - Mass Storage Module
The DS MSS/00x Mass Storage Module supports up to two EIDE peripheral devices on a single slot VME board and an optional floppy disk drive in a dual slot combination. In addition a front panel connector can be configured as a parallel or serial port. The parallel port enables connection to other peripherals, such as a CD-ROM, Zip® Drive or printer. The serial port supports either RS232 or RS485/422. The supported port configuration depends on the VME processor board to which the DS MSS/00x is connected. The DS MSS/00x is designed to interface with many of Concurrent Technologies' VME bus processor boards which feature an EIDE interface.
