2917 - VME Interface to 3922 Controller
The Model 2917 interfaces between a VMEbus system and as many as eight CAMAC crates using Model 3922 Parallel Bus Crate Controllers. Connection between the 2917 and the 3922s is made via a Model 5843-Txyz 40-conductor, twisted-pair ribbon cable. (Order this cable separately.) Balanced RS-485 signaling enhances performance and provides noise immunity. Data throughput rates for a 16-bit data transfer, using a 5 meter cable between the 2917 and a 3922, result in 920 kbyte/s for CAMAC Double Buffer Read operations; 890 kbyte/s for CAMAC Write operations can be achieved. The maximum total signaling distance of the interconnection bus is 90 meters (300 feet). The last 3922 terminates the Parallel Bus with a termination card (provided with the 3922).
