PMC

 

 

Installation Procedure

Read all notices and follow these steps to install a PMC on the baseboard.

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

Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage to module components.

Before installing or removing additional devices or modules, read the documentation that came with the product.

1.Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD strap to the chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.

2.Remove the PCI filler from the front panel.

3.Slide the edge connector of the PMC module into the front panel opening from behind and place the PMC module on top of the baseboard. The four connectors on the underside of the PMC module should then connect smoothly with the corresponding connectors on the MVME7100.

4.Insert the four short phillips-head screws (provided with the PMC) through the holes on the bottom side of the MVME7100 and the PMC front bezel and into rear standoffs. Tighten the screws. Refer to Figure 2-6 on page 43.

5.Reinstall the MVME7100 assembly in its proper card slot. Be sure the module is well seated in the backplane connectors. Do not damage or bend connector pins.

6.If the PMC module was installed in a non-hot swap chassis, replace the chassis or system cover(s), reconnect the system to the AC or DC power source and turn the equipment power on.
