Functionally the only difference I've been able to tell is that the 030-1327-002 boards runs a specific medical application in an MRI machine that reconstructs the MRI image. The 030-1227-00x causes an error running this application. Actually the O2 communicates to a second computer through it's serial ports that was specially designed to reconstruct the MRI image from a saved file. So the rumor of the serial ports being somehow modified seems likely.
The problem I run into is since the 030-1327-002 boards are usually priced higher, some vendors relabel the 030-1227-00x as an 030-1327-002 and sell them for the higher price. I need to be able to identify a 030-1327-002 in a way that doesn't rely on labeling alone. Right now the only way I can tell the difference is by running the actual application. This takes a bit of time to setup - install the board, hook-up the MRI, boot and run the application.
Gray market is the only way to purchase these boards, and seems a significant number of relabeled 030-1227-00x boards in the market. A lot of vendors probably believe they are selling me the right board.
So I was just wonder if anybody happens to know of some other way of telling the difference between these two part numbers.
Thanks,
