HARDWARE PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION
2
Introduction
This chapter provides unpacking instructions, hardware preparation, and installation instructions for the MVME162 Embedded Controller. Hardware preparation for the MVME712 series transition modules is provided in separate manuals. Refer to the Related Documentation section in Chapter 1.
Unpacking Instructions
Note
If the shipping carton is damaged upon receipt, request carrier’s agent be present during unpacking and inspection of equipment.
Unpack equipment from shipping carton. Refer to packing list and verify that all items are present. Save packing material for storing and reshipping of equipment.
Caution
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage circuits.
Hardware Preparation
To select the desired configuration and ensure proper operation of MVME162, certain option modifications may be necessary before installation. MVME162 provides software control for most of these options. Some options can not be performed in software, so are performed by installing or removing header jumpers or interface modules. Most other modifications are performed by setting bits in control registers after MVME162 has been installed in a system. (For more information on the MVME162 registers refer to the MVME162 Embedded Controller Programmer’s Reference Guide listed in Related Documentation in Chapter 1.)
The locations of the switches, jumper headers, connectors, and LEDs on the MVME162 are illustrated in Figure
