Expansion IO Module

PCIe

The PCIe slot on the external IO Module for the Edge Gateway is driven directly from the host PCIe bus. Since it is generic PCIe expansion, there are no PCIe device-specific drivers integrated into the OS image. If there is specific PCIe card used on this slot, contact the Vendor of that PCIe card for drivers.

GPIO

The GPIOs on the external IO Module for the Edge Gateway are behind PIC microcontroller. The PIC microcontroller is exposed to the host system and to the host OS as a USB-HID device. Software application developed to communicate with the GPIOs may use the protocol defined in following set of references to communicate with the GPIO modules. There is no native application software available on the factory OS image that communicates with the IO Module GPIOs.
