MVME177 Module Installation Instructions

When you have configured the MVME177Õs headers and installed the selected EPROMs in the sockets as described previously, install the MVME177 module in the system as follows:

1.Turn all equipment power OFF and disconnect the power cable from the AC power source.

Inserting or removing modules while power is applied

! could result in damage to module components.

Caution

Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are

! present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when

Warning handling, testing, and adjusting.

2. Remove chassis cover as instructed in the equipment user's manual.

3. Remove the filler panel(s) from the appropriate card slot(s) at the front and rear of the chassis (if the chassis has a rear card cage). The MVME177 module requires power from both P1 and P2. It may be installed in any double-height unused card slot, if it is not configured as system controller. If the MVME177 is configured as system controller, it must be installed in the leftmost card slot (slot 1) to correctly initiate the bus-grant daisy-chain and to have proper operation of the IACK-daisy-chain driver. Install the MVME177 in the front of the chassis. You can install the MVME712x in the front or the rear of the chassis. Other modules in the system may have to be moved to allow space for the MVME712M which has a double-wide front panel.

4. Carefully slide the MVME177 module into the card slot. Be sure the module is seated properly into the P1 and P2 connectors on the backplane. Do not damage or bend connector pins. Fasten the module in the chassis with screws
