ViewStation PC Card Board

This page describes the ViewStation's optional PC Card board.

An optional PC Card interface board is available. This connects to the main circuit board on the connector for the FlashPROM, so you would use the connector for either FlashPROM or PC Card cards. The PC Card board has slots for two PC Card devices and one for a FlashPROM board. Typically, you could use one for a FlashPROM storage device for booting, one for an audio board, and the third for an optional communications connection.

ViewStation PC Card Devices
The PC Card interface is a specification for both hardware and software interfaces. There are a number of PC Card devices currently supported and many more are being added.
