Selecting an Interrupt Level for the ARTIC186 8-Port PCI Adapter
The ARTIC186 8-Port PCI Adapter can be configured to operate on several hardware interrupt levels.
For maximum performance, each ARTIC adapter in the system unit should have its own unique
interrupt level.
The next best configuration is to place all ARTIC adapters in the system on a single interrupt level.
If neither of the preceding configurations are possible, choose an interrupt level that must be shared
with a non-ARTIC adapter.
