1 Introduction

This chapter introduces the PCES-8581-4S/13S PCI Express®­to-PCI Extension System, presents a general overview and basic
applications, its package contents, specifications, and features.

1.1 Overview

Harnessing the bandwidth potential of PCI Express®, the PCES­8581-4S and the PCES-8581-13S smart extension systems
enable computers with a PCI Express
and control up to 13 PCI devices, using the high-speed PCI
Express

®

interface. These extension systems operate in 32-bit/33
MHz configuration and come with complete end-to-end hardware
and software transparency for the host system. Hardware devices
installed in the extension system behave and work as if they are
directly installed on the host system, requiring no additional drivers
or software installation.

The host system may be separated from the extension system at
up to seven meters using high-quality shielded twisted copper
cables. The robust and reliable PCI Express
systems are suited for portable test and measurement applica­tions with high-density I/O requirement and are ideal in hazardous
industrial control and automation environments.

1.1.1 Controlling PCI with PCI Express

®

Based on PCI Express® technology, PCES-8581-4S and PCES­8581-13S provide bus expansion capability through the high­speed differential signal interface. The PCES-8581-4S and PCES­8581-13S use a signal equalizer and a PCI Express
bridge to architecture a PCI Express
With our PCES-8581-4S and PCES-8581-13S, user can use an
available PCI Express

no need to install any additional software when using PCI devices
in the external chassis.

The PCES-8581-13S and PCES-8581-4S implement a PCI

-based control of PCI modules. The technology consists
of a PCIe-8560 card installed in the host computer, a shielded
cable, and the extension system. The PCIe-8560 comes in a PCI
Express

®

x1 footprint and communicates with the extension sys­tem's low-profile PCI-8565 via a twisted and shielded cable. The
PCI-8565 converts the PCI Express

®

interface into a PCI bridge

for additional PCI slots in the extension system.

The link between host PC and the external chassis is a PCI
Express

®

X1 link that represents a dual-simplex communications
channel consisting of two, low-voltage differentially driven signal
pairs. The signaling rate can reach up to 2.5 Gbps in each direc­tion. Using the shielded and twisted cable, the maximum exten­sion distance can be up to 7 M without decreasing the signal rate.

to PCI

The PCES-8581-4S and PCES-8581-13S contain several electro­static sensitive components that can be easily damaged by static
electricity. For this reason, the card and chassis should be han­dled on a grounded anti-static mat and the operator should wear
an anti-static wristband during the unpacking and installation pro­cedure.

Please also inspect the components for apparent damage.
Improper shipping and handling may cause damage to the compo­nents. Be sure there is no shipping and handling damage on the
components before continuing.

Do not apply power to any equipment if it has been
damaged.

the equipment.

2. Unscrew the four housing screws of the extension chas­sis using a (cross-head or flat-head) screwdriver. Open
the top cover of the chassis. You should see a row of
PCI slots (four slots for RK-8005 or 13 slots for RK-8014)
along the backplane.

3. Locate your PCI device and remove it from its packag­ing. (Please wear anti-static gloves and use an anti­static surface when handling the card).

4. Install your PCI device in an available PCI slot and be
sure to firmly attach it’s bracket to the backplane of the

2.4 Cabling Host Computer to Extension Chassis

Now that you have successfully installed the PCIe-8560 into the
Host computer (or installed an additional PCI device in the exten­sion chassis), you may connect the Host Computer and Extension
Chassis with an extension cable.

Do not remove the extension cable after the system is
powered on. It may cause system errors or data loss. If

CAUTION:

the cable is unplugged improperly, reconnect it and
reboot the host PC and extension chassis.

1. Locate your 3 M extension cable.

2. Connect the 3 M extension cable to the PCI Express
serial link connector (PCIe-8560) of your host PC.

3. Firmly attach the 3 M extension cable by tightening its
retention screws.

1. Unscrew the four housing screws of the extension chas­sis (RK-8014) using a (cross-head or flat-head) screw­driver. Open the top cover of the chassis.

2. Disconnect the power-on button of the RK-8014 chassis
panel.

3. Locate the JP2 connector on the BP-8014 as well as the
JP1 of the PCI-8565.

be supported by one chassis. However, users can select
multiple extension chassis for different purposes. For exam­ple, a 4-slot extension chassis provides small and compact
form factor while an 18-slot extension chassis provides
more PCI slots. Theoretically, PCI specification allows up to

255 PCI bus segments. ADLINK PCI Express
sion Products do not limit the bus segment number. The
maximum PCI bus segments may limited by your BIOS or
operating system.

Question:

Answer: ADLINK PCI Express

Is there any compatibility problems with the ADLINK

®

PCI Express

designed as standard PCI Express

-to-PXI extension kit?

®

Bus Extension Products are

®

-to-PCI Bridge. During
PC boot up, your PC BIOS will search devices and assign
resources such as, I/O, memory space and IRQ number, to
each device according to its algorithm. Although PCI speci­fication allows up to 255 bus segments in a PC system, the
BIOS may not assign the correct and/or proper resource to
each device in some complex PCI systems.

Because the PCI Express

®

specification was released in
2002, most hardware and circuit board designers as of yet
do not offer multiple PCI-to-PCI bridges. Most BIOS work
for simple applications but may not work for multiple PCI
bus segments and a variety of resource requests. We sug­gest customers choose PC equipment with Intel 945, 965 or
later chipsets to adjust for these issues.

Question:

When I encounter compatibility problems, what should

I do?

Answer: Because most compatibility problems come from PCI

resource assignments, customers should consult their PC
vendors or BIOS vendors for help. Updating to the most cur­rent BIOS version may also resolve PCI resources prob­lems.

38 Troubleshooting (FAQ)

PCES-8581-4S PCES-8581-13S

User’s Manual

The following list are some indications that may help customers to

deal with compatibility issues:

1. Disable the onboard device functions of your host PC to

release IO resources.

2. Remove PCI devices plugged/installed in your host PC.

3. Connect an extension chassis which is single bus seg-

ment to the host PC. Plug a PCI device to an extension
chassis one by one and boot each in sequence to check
if your host PC can accommodate the PCI device or not.

4. You may try to plug the PCI Express
