1.The VME SCON MAN switch is OFF to select Auto-SCON mode. The switch is ON to select manual SCON mode which works in conjunction with the VME SCON SEL switch.

2.The VME SCON SEL switch is OFF to select non-SCON mode. The switch is ON to select always SCON mode. This switch is only effective when the VME SCON MAN switch is ON.

If you are installing the optional MVME7216E transition module, refer to Transition Module on page 40 for configuration switch settings.

2.5Installing Accessories

This section describes the procedures for installing the MVME7216E transition module, PMCs, and the XMCspan on the baseboard.

2.5.1Transition Module

The MVME7216E does not support hot swap, You should remove power to the rear slot or system before installing the module. Before installing the MVME7216E transition module, you may need to manually configure the switch and install a PMC I/O Module (PIM). Refer to Chapter 5, Transition Module, for switch settings and PIM installation.

Damage of Circuits

Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal can damage circuits or shorten their life.

Before touching the board or electronic components, make sure that you are working in an ESD-safe environment.

Product Damage

Only use injector handles for board insertion to avoid damage to the front panel and/or PCB. Deformation of the front panel can cause an electrical short or other board malfunction.

Board Malfunction

Switches marked as “reserved” might carry production-related functions and can cause the board to malfunction if their setting is changed.

Do not change settings of switches marked as “reserved”. The setting of switches which are not marked as “reserved” has to be checked and changed before board installation.
