4. Simultaneously push both handles in again and rotate until the handles are at their
farthest point of travel. Repeat this process until the SBC faceplate is clear of the
chassis. At this point the SBC can be removed from the chassis.
3.5 AdvancedMC Module Installation and Extraction
To install or remove an AdvancedMC* module into the MPCBL0010 SBC, simply move
the SBC handle from the vertical to the horizontal position. This will move the handle
out of the way of the AdvancedMC slot and allow modules to be inserted or removed.
Note: Do not push the SBC handle inward because this will activate the Hot Swap switch.
Refer to the AdvancedMC manufacturer user manual for other considerations specific to
the AdvancedMC module you are using.
3.6 BIOS Configuration
In most cases, the BIOS defaults will provide the correct configuration to use the
board. See Chapter 7.0, “BIOS Setup” for a complete list of BIOS options.
3.7 Remote Access Configuration
Console redirection to the serial port is enabled by default. This setting will redirect the
text output of the BIOS and operating system to the RJ-45 serial port on the
MPCBL0010 SBC. Remote access using serial console redirection allows users to
monitor the boot process and run the BIOS setup from a remote serial terminal. The
default settings used for console redirection to the serial port are 115,200, n, 8, 1, and
no flow control. See Chapter 5.0, “Connectors and LEDs” for the pin connection of this
interface.
3.8 Software Updates
It is important to use compatible BIOS, FPGA, and IPMC firmware versions. Since all
the software and hardware versions are exchanging specific information, they must be
in synch. Always follow the documentation instructions included with the software
updates.
