serial drivers such as: Linux, QNX, DOS, Solaris and SCO
Unix.
Optical Isolation
The Xtreme/104 Opto uses optocouplers and isolated DC to DC
converters to achieve optical isolation. The board provides 3.0 kV
AC peak to peak isolation between each port and also between
each port and your system. However there are some
considerations to note.
1. Optical isolation can degrade if the board is subjected to high
humidity, especially conditions that are right for
condensation to occur.
2. Optical isolation can degrade if airborne dust is allowed to
accumulate on the surface of the board.
3. An electrical shock hazard could exist depending on what
equipment is connected to the Xtreme/104 Opto. Under
these circumstances the wiring and/or cabling leading to the
serial port connections may have high voltages on them. You
must use appropriately insulated cables in these situations.
4. Please contact your Connect Tech Technical Support
Specialist for any questions related to the application of
optical isolation.
