Abstract :
A description is given of the FPAX, a general-purpose FASTBUS module with four independent (two slave and two master) ports on two segments. It operates as a normal master on either segment or as a block mover on both. The processor board is based on a 68020 microprocessor. A local/network switch allows operation as a host or as a normal module on the FASTBUS network. FPAX is designed to feed and manage the cluster of 3081/E emulators used in the fourth-level trigger/tagging stage of the data acquisition system of the Delphi experiment at CERN
