Board Level Hardware Description
❏The DB-25 connector marked SERIAL PORT 1/CONSOLE on the front panel of the MVME162. SERIAL PORT 1/CONSOLE is an EIA-232-D DCE port.
NOTE: This port can be connected to the TX and RX clocks which may be present on the DB-25 connector. These connections are made via jumper header J11 on the MVME162 board. (The TxC and RxC clock lines are not available on the MVME712X transition modules.)
❏One of the following output connectors on the MVME712X transition module:
MVME712M: The DB-25 connector marked SERIAL PORT 2 on the front panel. SERIAL PORT 2 can be configured as an EIA-232-D DTE or DCE port, via jumper headers J16 and J17.
MVME712A or MVME712-12: The DB-9 connector marked SERIAL PORT 2 on the front panel. SERIAL PORT 2 is hardwired as an EIA-232-D DTE port.
MVME712AM or MVME712-13: The DB-9 connector marked SERIAL PORT 2 OR the RJ-11 jack on the front panel. SERIAL PORT 2 is hardwired as EIA-232-D DTE; the RJ-11 jack utilizes the built-in modem. Setting the jumper headers J16 and J17 on the MVME712AM/-13 configures the output as EIA-232-D DTE at SERIAL PORT 2 or as a modem at the RJ-11 jack.
MVME162 Serial Port 2
The configuration of the B port of the Z85230 is determined via a Serial Interface Module (SIM) which is installed at connector J10 on the MVME162 board. There are four SIMs available:
SIM05 -- DTE with EIA-232-D interface
SIM06 -- DCE with EIA-232-D interface
SIM07 -- DTE with EIA-530 interface
SIM08 -- DCE with EIA-530 interface
Port B is routed, via the SIM, to:
❏The DB-25 connector marked SERIAL PORT 2 on the front panel of the MVME162. SERIAL PORT 2 will be an EIA-232-D DCE or DTE port, or an EIA-530 DCE or DTE port, depending upon which SIM is installed.
NOTE: This port can be connected to the TX and RX clocks which may be present on the DB-25 connector. These connections are made via jumper header J12 on the MVME162 board. (The TxC and RxC clock lines are available at the MVME712M SERIAL PORT 4 via header J15, but are not available on the other MVME712X transition modules.)
