MVME5100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use - Bustec

Installation13. Remove the filler panel from the VMEbus chassis card slot whereyou are going to install the MVME5100. If you have installed oneor more PMCspan PCI expansion modules onto your MVME5100,you will need to remove filler panels from one additional card slotfor each PMCspan, above the card slot for the MVME5100.– If you intend to use the MVME5100 as system controller, it mustoccupy the left-most card slot (slot 1). The system controllermust be in slot 1 to correctly initiate the bus-grant daisy-chainand to ensure proper operation of the IACK daisy-chain driver.– If you do not intend to use the MVME5100 as system controller,it can occupy any unused card slot.4. Slide the MVME5100 (and PMCspans if used) into the selectedcard slot(s). Verify that the module or module(s) seated properly inthe P1 and P2 connectors on the chassis backplane. Do not damageor bend connector pins.5. Secure the MVME5100 (and PMCspans if used) in the chassis withthe screws in the top and bottom of its front panel and verify propercontact with the transverse mounting rails to minimize RFemissions.NoteSome VME backplanes (such as those used in Motorola modularchassis systems) have an auto-jumpering feature for automaticpropagation of the IACK and BG signals. The step immediatelybelow does not apply to such backplane designs.6. On the chassis backplane, remove the INTERRUPT ACKNOWLEDGE(IACK) and BUS GRANT (BG) jumpers from the header for the cardslots occupied by the MVME5100 and any PMCspan modules.7. If you intend to use PPCbug interactively, connect the terminal thatis to be used as the PPCbug system console to the DEBUG port onthe front panel of the MVME5100.NoteIn normal operation, the host CPU controls MVME5100operation via the VMEbus Universe registers.http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature 1-17
