IEEE 1394 Features
IEEE 1394b standard is a high-speed serial bus designed to deliver high data transfer speeds at a low
cost, and with the low degree of latency required by a peripheral bus or by a backup to a traditional
parallel bus. Among its key features are:
· Software: Orange Micro 1394b software enable better performance of the hardware & data transfer.
· High Speed: Speeds of 100, 200, 400 and 800 Mbps are supported.
· Isochronous Support: Deterministic bandwidth allocation guarantees bandwidth for time-sensitive
applications, such as real-time video feeds, that could otherwise be disrupted by heavy bus traffic.
· Flexible Topology: Devices can be daisy-chained and no central bus supervision is required. Besides,
it supports peer to peer function and allows up to 63 devices to be connected in a chain through its
standard 6-pin or 9-pin FireWire ports.
· Hot-plug Support: The bus is dynamically reconfigured whenever new nodes are added,
which means users don’t have to configure node IDs or unique termination schemes.
· Cable Power: Low-cost peripherals can be powered directly from the 1394 cable, no external power needed.
·1394 End devices: IEEE 1394 interfaces have already been incorported into a variety of devices,
including PC cameras, DV camcorders, DV recorders, digital still cameras, high-speed hard disk
drives, CD/DVD ROM drives. 1. Pentium-class computer with one available x1, x4, x8 or x16 PCI Express slot.
2. Microsoft Windows 7/8.1/10 operation system.
3. Recommended system for digital video creating/editing:
·Pentium4 2.0GHz computer with 256MB RAM and CD/DVD-ROM drive
·400MB of available hard disk space or above
·Video card with 32MB RAM or above (AGP or PCI Express VGA Card)
System Requirements

PC
The hardware installation of PCIe Serial board is easy to carry out. Before inserting the card into the
PCIe Express bus, please follow the detailed steps given below to install the PCIe Serial board in your
computer.
Hardware Installation
To avoid damaging to the computer, make sure to remove
any power connection before card installation.
SAFETY FIRST
Step 1: Turn your PC’s power off, and shut off the power to any peripheral.
Step 2: Remove the power plug from the plug socket.
Step 3: Remove the cover from the computer case.
Step 4: If fitted. Remove the metal cover plate on the rear of a free PCI-E slot.
Step 5: Insert PCI Express Serial Communication Board into the free PCI-E slot
and screw it firmly on the bracket side.
Step 6: Place the cover back onto the computer.
Step 7: Insert the plug into the plug socket.
Once the Windows 7/8.1/10 startup, IEEE 1394b PCIe card will be installed automatically without driver
installation. System tray shows up "AGERE OHCI Compliant 1394 Host Controller" installed ready information.
Driver Installation
Click on the "Device Manager" tab in System Properties, which you access from the Windows Control
Panel. You should see an entry for the driver you installed under IEEE1394 Bus host controllers item.
