Re: PC-104/Plus as IOC's

[Graham Waters <waters@triumf.ca>]

tri-m systems ( http://www.tri-m.com/
) make a pc104+ card based
on the zfx86 chip from zfmicro. We are using it in situations
where we only require a network for device support.
A bsp for vxWorks 5.4 is available from zfmicro but is incompatible
with vxWorks 5.5. We are currently running with EPICS R3.13.5
