Description This permits the use of high speed video modules and “local” The VL-586-1 is a complete DOS compatible computer. It I/O expansion in systems using multiple processor cards. combines standard DOS/Windows hardware with Use of on-board PC/104 modules requires an empty card slot space next to the VL-586-1 board. In addition to system RAM and Flash memory options, this board includes an optional 512K of battery-backed static RAM. This supports requirements for non-volatile storage ® without the write-cycle limitations of Flash memory. 3888 Stewart Road, Eugene, OR 97402 • (800) 824-3163 • Fax (541) 485-5712 • Info@VersaLogic.com • www.VersaLogic.com VL-586-1 586 CPU Card - 133 MHz Software Development PC-AT Compatibility Because the VL-586-1 is a standard DOS hardware/firm- The VL-586-1 comes standard with a PC-AT compatible ware platform, software development follows the same path LPT port, two COM ports, keyboard controller, real time as on a desktop PC.
