This firmware is for connecting the FPIX0 test beam inner board to a PMC. Firmware provides a simple pass through of the signals from the JN1/JN2 connector on the PTA/PMC interface. Signaling between the PMC and the FPIX0 inner board is LVDS. It is important that the appropriate PMC termination resistors are installed or removed as described in the PMC Firmware schematic.
**PTA card firmware needs to be configured with the correct I/O on the JN1/JN2 interface prior to mating the PMC to the PTA. Failure to do so can damage the PTA and/or PMC**
