ND-06.015 ND-100 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

This manual describes the main building blocks of the ND-100 and their functions from a hardware point of view. The function of each subsystem is discussed in details. It also contains a lot of information about configuration settings, programming instructions and how to interpret indicators and LEDs on both the CPU card and a lot of expansion cards. It is written for technical and maintenance personnel and for low level programmers.
