NOTE: Acqiris Digitizers are equipped with a LED. If this LED is not glowing orange or red when the power is 
applied there is a severe problem. Either the module is broken or the necessary voltages for its use are not 
available. 
NOTE: For proper system operation when using the IC200, IC414, or other PCI extension interface to connect

recognize the presence of the CompactPCI crate.

can be found in the ReadMe.txt file in the manuals folder of your Acqiris Software installation.
