Titan/cPCI User’s Manual, ver. 0.00  
 
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation

Hardware Installation  
Introduction  
Hardware installation involves configuration of the following  
Titan/cPCI products:  
The Titan/cPCI-2 /cPCI-4 adapters  
Note: Please refer to Chapter 3: Software Installation for  
installation of your Titan/cPCI board under certain operating  
systems.  
Configuration  
Compact Peripheral Component Interconnect (cPCI) bus  
architecture offers a feature called Plug and Play (sometimes  
referred to as PnP). This feature automatically identifies and  
configures installed devices each time the system boots.  
In most CompactPCI compliant computers, the system BIOS will  
automatically detect and configure the Titan/cPCI adapter.  
However in some cases a system BIOS cannot resolve all of the  
requests for resources in the system. This often occurs with the  
assignment of system interrupts, since this is usually the scarcest  
resource.  
If this occurs, the driver will signal that a given resource has not  
been assigned, which requires the user to assign system resources  
manually. After reboot, determine with the BIOS setup utility  
what resources have been assigned to the cPCI devices and then  
do manual assignments of free resources to your cPCI device.  
Reboot your system. If the BIOS cannot find a suitable  
configuration please contact Connect Tech Technical Support.  
Baud Rate Selection  
Titan/cPCI adapters offer ideal solutions for applications  
requiring serial communications up to 1.8432 Mbps. Baud rates  
are software selectable, so therefore please refer to Chapter 3:  
Software Installation for configuring the baud rates under  
certain operating systems.  
Titan/cPCI User’s Manual, ver. 0.00

Chapter 2: Hardware Installation  
RS-485/422 Line Interface  
The Titan/cPCI adapters come with a jumper selectable RS-  
485/422 electrical line interface for each port. The RS-485/422  
electrical interface is a reliable high-speed serial link that offers  
superior noise immunity and multi-drop network connectivity.  
The RS-485/422 electrical interface is also a superset of the RS-  
422 electrical interface. Titan/cPCI adapters offer full RS-  
485/422 support in hardware. The support is:  
Full Duplex Mode  
In this mode, TxD & RxD are active all the time. This mode is  
typically used in point to point situations much like RS-232.  
Please refer to Appendix D: RS-485/422 Line Interface for the  
jumper settings associated with this function.  
Half Duplex Mode  
In this mode the TxD line driver is enabled only when data is  
transmitted and RxD is disabled when data is being transmitted.  
This mode is typically used in either point to point "2 wire"  
connections OR in multi-drop "2 wire" bussed connections.  
Please refer to Appendix D: RS-485/422 Line Interface for the  
jumper settings associated with this function.  
Multi-drop Slave Mode  
In this mode the TxD line driver is enabled only when data is  
transmitted and RxD is enabled all the time. This mode is  
typically used in multi-drop "4 wire" connections. Please refer to  
Appendix D: RS-485/422 Line Interface for the jumper settings  
associated with this function.  
Line Termination  
You can terminate and bias TxD ±, RxD ±, RTS ±, and CTS ± on  
the individual RS-485/422 ports through jumper selectable 150  
fixed resistors. Please refer to Appendix D: RS-485/422 Line  
Interface for the jumper settings associated with this function.

Installing the Titan/cPCI Adapter in your System  
To install your Titan/cPCI adapter in your computer follow these  
steps:  
Your Titan/cPCI adapter is very sensitive to static electricity.  
Make sure you wear an anti-static wristband before you remove  
the card from the anti-static shipping bag. When you remove the  
board from the anti-static bag, handle it only by the edges and  
place it on the anti-static bag or an anti-static mat.  
1. Turn the power off to your computer.  
2. Remove the Titan from its packaging, and remove the  
protective rubber from the alignment pins on the Titan’s front  
panel.  
3. Insert your Titan/cPCI into an available 3U slot. The black  
handle on the front panel should be on the bottom, in the  
lowered position.  
4. Push the Titan into the cPCI slot until the handle mates with  
the card cage. Lift the handle to lock the Titan into place.  
4. With a screwdriver, fasten the screw on the top of the panel  
into the card cage for added mechanical security.

Cable Part Number: CAB04DX  
Technical Tip:  
1.Please ensure that you terminate the DCD or CTS signals if  
your application does not use them. The common way to do  
this is to connect DCD to DTR and/or to connect CTS to  
RTS. Failure to do so may result in a loss of performance

Electrical Interface Selection  
The Titan/cPCI adapter provides jumper selectable RS-232 and  
RS-485/422 electrical interfaces on each port.  
Jumper block JB sets the electrical interfaces for the individual  
ports. Jumpers installed across the pins on jumper block JB  
enable the RS-232 interface for that port, while jumpers not  
installed across pins enable the RS-485/422 interface for that port.  
Figure 1 shows the location of jumper block JB.  
Technical Tip  
Please refer to the README files on the driver diskettes for  
technical tips or release notes concerning installation and  
configuration of various device drivers and software utilities. If  
you require further information please contact Connect Tech  
Technical Support

Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface  
Full Duplex Mode  
By not installing pins on jumper block JA and by using features  
in our driver software, you can run the individual RS-485/422  
ports in full duplex mode. This mode is typically used in point to  
point RS-485/422 situations much like RS-232. In this mode,  
TxD & RxD are active all the time. Figure 1 shows the location  
of jumper block JA.  
Half Duplex RS-485  
By installing pins on jumper block JA and using features in our  
driver software, you can run the individual RS-485/422 ports in  
half duplex mode. In this mode your Titan/cPCI adapter controls  
the transmitter and receiver circuits. DTR is turned on prior to  
and during transmission to cause the transmit driver to enable and  
the receiver to disable. DTR is turned off when not transmitting  
to cause the transmit driver to disable (tri-stated) and the receiver  
to enable. The 16C950 UARTs on the Titan/cPCI adapter are  
responsible for timing the DTR toggle.  
Multi-drop Slave Mode  
By not installing jumpers on jumper block JA and by using  
features in our driver software, you can run the individual RS-  
485/422 ports in multi-drop slave mode. In this mode the TxD  
line driver is enabled only when data is transmitted and RxD is  
enabled all the time. This mode is typically used in multi-drop "4  
wire" connections.  
Example  
The example below shows the settings on JA where RS-485  
ports 1 and 2 are set for full duplex or multi-drop slave mode,  
port 3 is set for half duplex and port 4 is not set since port 4 is  
set for RS-232 on jumper block JB.

Technical Note:

RS-485/422 on jumper block JB.

Line Termination  
4-11  
You can use jumper blocks JC, JD, JE and JF to terminate and  
bias TxD ±, RxD ±, RTS ±, and CTS ± on the individual RS-  
485/422 ports through jumper selectable 150 fixed resistors.  
Please refer to Figure 4 for a partial schematic of the RS-485/422  
circuit for the Titan/cPCI and to Figure 1 for the locations of JC,  
JD, JE and JF.
