====== VME Digital Input/Output (V-DIO) System ======

The V-DIO is a modular VME based system and was mainly developed to control and readout measured signals and status from the Current to Frequency Converter ([[projects-internal:ifc3:ov-ifc3|IFC]]). The development was done by the swiss company {{http://www.magentasys.com|MagentaSys}}.

As main board the V-DIO is using the {{http://www.ohwr.org/projects/svec|Simple VME FMC Carrier (SVEC)}} from the Open Hardware Repository (OHWR).
