MODEL 6032 DATA TRANSFER MODULE

DESCRIPTION

This single-width module transfers data (duplex, serial) between two CAMAC-interfaced computer systems. Therefore, 6032 modules are most commonly used in pairs, one 6032 being plugged into a CAMAC crate of each system, with the two modules physically inter- connected by two data lines and two control lines. Each module contains two 256 words x 16 bits memories, combined with suitable logic to interface inter-module serial data transfers with the parallel formated CAMAC dataways. In addition, a front panel port interfaces the module to the MDCX channel over which the controls system transmits serial block transfers independent of the CAMAC dataway.

A software maskable LAM bit is set, following a time-out at the conclusion of a Receive Data (RD) serial block-transfer to indicate that data is available to be read via the dataway. Software read- able status provided for each memory includes content (binary word count) and "full" and "empty" flags.
         
 COMMANDS
 FO AX   Clears LAM and reads FO memory.
 F1 AO   Reads module status; also inhibits intermodule R/W trans-
       fers for 20 msec. to freeze data prior to dataway MDC
       reads.
 F4 AX   Same as FO AX.
 F6 AO   Reads module No. (binary).
 F8 AO   Tests LAM, Q returned if set and enabled.
 F9 AO   Clears F16 memory.
 F9 A1   Clears FO memory.
 F10 AO   Clears LAM.
 F12 AO   Disables internal memory jumper.
 F14 AO   Enables internal memory jumper.
 F16 AX   Writes one word into F16 memory.
 F24 AO   Disables LAM.
 F26 AO   Enables LAM.
 F28 AO   MDCX OF-W. Inhibits block transfer.
 F30 AO   MDCX ON. Enables block transfer.
 Z-S2 + POWER ON clears memories, LAM, LAM Disable.
 Note X = Don't Care.
