5.1Overview

This chapter provides hardware preparation and installation instructions for the CPCI-6115- MCPTM transition module. Refer to Chapter 3, Controls, LEDs, and Connectors for pin assignments.

The CPCI-6115-MCPTM transition module provides additional I/O capabilities to the CPCI- 6115 SBC. The transition module is installed directly in the CompactPCI backplane in the rear transition board bay of the chassis and interfaces with the CPCI-6115 SBC through the J3 and J5 connectors.

Rear panel connectors on the CPCI-6115-MCPTM include one of two configurations: two RJ- 45 connectors for 10/100/1000BaseTx Ethernet and one RJ-45 connector for asynchronous serial port, COM1 (CompactPCI version); or four RJ-45 connectors for asynchronous serial ports, COM1, COM2, COM3 and COM4 (MXP version). Only COM1 and COM2, however, are available on the CPCI-6115 SBC for use with the transition module. An additional two serial ports and the one EIDE channel are available on J3 and J5 from the baseboard.

The transition module supports two single-wide (74mm wide by 69mm long) PMC I/O modules. PMC I/O pins 1 through 64 of each PMC slot on the CPCI-6115 SBC are routed from the J3 and J5 connectors to the PMC I/O (PIM1 and PIM2) on the transition module. For a detailed description of PMC I/O modules refer to the section titled PMC I/O Modules on page 104.

Before installing your transition module, ensure that you have performed all tasks as described in Chapter 2, Hardware Preparation and Installation for installing the CPCI-6115 prior to configuring and installing the transition module.
