1.1 Warnings and Cautions
The card is an electrical component and must be treated with the following precautions:
Warning
Only qualified electrical personnel familiar with the construction/operation of this
equipment and the hazards involved should install, adjust, operate, and/or service this
equipment. Read and understand this guide in its entirety before proceeding. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or, in extreme cases, loss of
life.
Warning
You must provide an external, hand-wired emergency stop circuit outside the
programmable controller circuitry. This circuit must disable the system in case of
improper operation. Uncontrolled machine motion may result if this procedure is not
followed. Failure to observe this precaution could result in bodily injury.
Caution
The card contains static-sensitive components. Careless handling may severely damage
the card. Do not touch any of the connectors or pins on the card. When not in use, the
card should be stored in an anti-static bag. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in damage to or destruction of the equipment.

1.3 PCI Compatibility
1.3.1 Overview
The following table outlines the requirements of different PCI revisions and the PCI requirements of the
SST-PFB3-PCI card.
Table 1: PCI Compatibility Table
PCI Revision Supply Voltage Provided PCI I/O signaling voltage level
by Motherboard of Motherboard
3.3V 5V 3.3V 5V
2.1 1Optional Required Not supported Supported
2.2 Required Required Supported Supported
2.3 Required Required Supported Not supported
SST Product
SST-PFB3-PCI Required Required 2Supported 2Supported
1 The SST-PFB3-PCI requires both 3.3V and 5V to be supplied by the motherboard. Because 3.3V supply
voltage is optional in PCI revision 2.1, the SST-PFB3-PCI may not function in some PCI 2.1-compliant
motherboards.
2The SST-PFB3-PCI will auto-detect the motherboard PCI I/O signaling level and adjust its signaling level
accordingly, allowing it to function in PCI systems that support either 5V or 3.3V I/O signaling levels.
Summary
The SST-PFB3-PCI’s compatibility can be summarized as follows:
• Will operate in PCI 2.2- and 2.3-compliant systems
• Will also operate in PCI 2.1-compliant systems that have implemented the optional 3.3V supply voltage

1.4.1 LEDs
There are two LEDs on the card: communications (COMM), and system (SYS). The LEDs are identified in the
following figure.
Figure 2: Card Bracket
SYS LED
COMM LED
During power-up, the COMM LED is off, and the SYS LED is amber. Once a module has been loaded, the LEDs
are under firmware control. Refer to the firmware reference guide for more details.
If, during power-up, a fault is detected by the boot code, an error is flashed on the SYS LED. Refer to Section A.3,
Fatal Hardware Self-Test Flash Codes, for more details.
Note
For information on troubleshooting using LEDs, refer to Section 4.1, SYS LED is Red.
