Introduction
Connect Tech’s Titan/cPCI and Titan/cPCI Rear I/O adapters are high performance multi-port
serial adapters that allow you to connect up to 4 serial devices through one expansion slot.
Titan/cPCI adapters provide the high-speed interfaces between a host computer’s CompactPCI
bus and multiple external serial devices.
You must have the corresponding number of Titan/cPCI serial ports installed in the front I/O in
order to use a Titan/cPCI Rear I/O or Titan/cPCI Rear I/O Opto adapter in your system.
Titan/cPCI Rear I/O and Rear I/O Opto adapters provide the high-speed interfaces between a
host computer’s rear I/O CompactPCI bus and multiple external serial devices. Please note that
when you have a Titan/cPCI Rear I/O adapter installed the corresponding number of ports
in the front I/O section are not available.
Features:
● Two or four asynchronous serial ports from one slot
● RS-232 and RS-422/485 interfaces
● Full RS-422/485 support in the following modes:
● 16C950 UARTs
● Independent baud rate selection per port offering baud rates from 50 bps to 1.8342 Mbps
(RS-422/485) or 230.4 Kbps (RS-232), with 5, 6, 7 or 8 data bits and 1, 1.5, 2 stop bits, odd,
even, mark and space parity
● TransGuard
able to withstand multiple strikes on every signal of every port (not available on the Rear
I/O Opto model)
● CompactPCI rear I/O capability (Please contact your Connect Tech Sales representative for
further information concerning the available rear I/O options for your Titan/cPCI adapter)
● Jumper selectable +5 V DC or +12 V DC output on pin 6 of the DB-9 connector (available
on Titan/cPCI Rear I/O adapters only)
● Each port is independently optically isolated to 3.0kV AC peak to peak (Titan/cPCI Rear
I/O Opto models only)
● Ability to install any number of Titan/cPCI adapters that your system can accommodate(For
Rear/IO, you can install up to the same number of Titan/cPCI Rear I/O and Rear I/O Opto
serial ports as Titan/cPCI serial ports already installed in your system.)

Titan/cPCI Installation Overview
There are two main stages in the installation process for your Titan/cPCI product:
1. Hardware Installation
This involves the physical connection of the Titan/cPCI hardware to your system.
2. Software Installation and Configuration of Titan/cPCI
This step installs and configures the Titan/cPCI drivers and allows you to set parameters
specific to your serial requirements.
Hardware Installation
Connecting the Titan/cPCI to your System
Before you begin, take a minute to ensure that your package includes the required components
that should have shipped with your Titan/cPCI:
Titan/cPCI adapter and/or Titan/cPCI Rear I/O adapter (if applicable)
•
Cable harness (optional with four-port models only)
•
Titan/cPCI device drivers
•
One CD containing software and documentation
•
If any of these components is missing, contact Connect Tech
reseller.
Please read before you install your T itan /cPCI
Some Titan/cPCI cards are designed with rear I/O capabilities.
These are 32-bit cards. The Titan/cPCI cards with rear I/O
capabilities are NOT designed for use in 64-bit backplanes. Using
these Titan/cPCI cards in a 64-bit backplane may damage the card
and/or your equipment.
If you are uncertain whether the cPCI slots in your backplane
support 32 or 64-bit cards, please consult your equipment manual
or manufacturer.
Non-rear I/O versions of the Titan/cPCI cards are available (TN004
and TN007 for example). Please contact sales@connecttech.com
for more details or support@connecttech.com if you have any
questions.
