About This Manual
Conventions
Notices
This manual may use the following types of notice:
WARNING
Warnings alert you to the risk of severe personal injury.
CAUTION
Cautions alert you to system danger or loss of data.
NOTE
Notes call attention to important features or instructions.
TIP
Tips give guidance on procedures that may be tackled in a number of ways.
LINK
Links take you to other documents or websites.
Numbers
All numbers are expressed in decimal, except addresses and memory or register
data, which are expressed in hexadecimal. Where confusion may occur, decimal
numbers have a “D” subscript and binary numbers have a “b” subscript. The
prefix “0x” shows a hexadecimal number, following the ‘C’ programming
language convention. Thus:
One dozen = 12D= 0x0C = 1100b
The multipliers “k”, “M” and “G” have their conventional scientific and
engineering meanings of x103, x106and x109respectively. The only exception to
this is in the description of the size of memory areas, when “k”, “M” and “G”
mean x210, x220 and x230 respectively.
NOTE
When describing transfer rates, “k”, “M” and “G” mean x103, x106and x109not x210, x220 and x230.
In PowerPC terminology, multiple bit fields are numbered from 0 to n where 0 is
the MSB and n is the LSB. PCI terminology follows the more familiar convention
that bit 0 is the LSB and n is the MSB.
Text
Signal names ending with a tilde (“~”) denote active low signals; all other signals
are active high. “N” and “P” denote the low and high components of a differential
signal respectively.

Additional Notes
The PCI-5565PIORC* is the PCI-based member of Abaco’s family of Reflective
Memory real-time fiber-optic network products. Two or more PCI-5565PIORCs,
along with other members of this family, can be integrated into a network using
standard fiber-optic cables. Each board in the network is referred to as a “node.”
Reflective Memory allows computers, workstations, PLCs and other embedded
controllers with different architectures and dissimilar operating systems to share
data in real-time. The 5565 family of Reflective Memory (referred to as RFM-5565
in this manual) is fast, flexible and easy to operate. Data is transferred by writing
to memory (SDRAM), which appears to reside globally in all boards on the
network. Onboard circuitry automatically performs the data transfer to all other
nodes with little or no involvement of any host processor. A block diagram of the
PCI-5565PIORC is shown in Figure 1.
Features
Features include:
• High speed, easy to use fiber-optic network (2.12 GBaud serially)

Comparison of the PCI-5565PIORC and the PCI-5565*
The classic PCI-5565* contains several components which have been combined
into a single FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) in the PCI-5565PIORC. The
components that were combined include a PCI interface device by PLX
Technologies, three separate smaller FPGAs, a transmit FIFO, and a receive FIFO.
The PCI-5565PIORC adds greater design flexibility and improved performance
over the classic PCI-5565 in at least three areas.
1. The PCI-5565PIORC’s DMA burst and PIO single read access rates have an
improvement over the classic PCI-5565.
2. The PCI-5565PIORC’s access bandwidth for the onboard SDRAM memory
has doubled, improving the overall throughput.
3. The PCI-5565PIORC is field upgradeable as new features are added.
The classic PCI-5565 contained a group of control registers within the PLX device
as well as a separate group of RFM specific control registers located in an FPGA.
Publication No. 500-9367855565-000 Rev. D.0 About This Manual 7
Because the two registers groups physically reside in separate devices, they are
accessed through different regions of memory. The PCI-5565PIORC, on the other
hand, contains both groups of registers within the same FPGA. The two groups
could have been combined. However to provide software continuity and
backward compatibility, the two register groups have been maintained separately
as in the classic VMIPCI-5565. Further, the individual bit functions within the
registers, where applicable, are still compatible.
The PCI-5565PIORC does not include a second DMA engine.

Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of
the operation, service and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these
precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of the design, manufacture, and intended use of this product.
Abaco assumes no liability for the customerʹs failure to comply with these
requirements.
Ground the System
To minimize shock hazard, the chassis and system cabinet must be connected to
an electrical ground. A three-conductor AC power cable should be used. The
power cable must either be plugged into an approved three-contact electrical
outlet or used with a three-contact to two-contact adapter with the grounding
wire (green) firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power
outlet.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the system in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation
of any electrical system in such an environment constitutes a definite safety
hazard.
Keep Away from Live Circuits
Operating personnel must not remove product covers. Component replacement
and internal adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do
not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions,
dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid
injuries, always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them.
Do Not Service or Adjust Alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person capable of
rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.
Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify System
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute
parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the product. Return the
product to Abaco for service and repair to ensure that safety features are
maintained.
