MVME177 Module Installation Instructions

provided, making good contact with the transverse mounting rails to minimize RFI emissions.

5.Remove IACK and BG jumpers from the header on the chassis backplane for the card slot in which the MVME177 is installed.

6.Connect the P2 Adapter Board and specified cable(s) to the MVME177 at P2 on the backplane at the MVME177 slot, to mate with (optional) terminals or other peripherals at the EIA-232-D serial ports, parallel port, SCSI ports, and LAN Ethernet port. Refer to the manuals listed in Related Documentation in Chapter 1 for information on installing the P2 Adapter Board and the MVME712x transition module(s). (Some connection diagrams are in the Single Board Computers Programmer's Reference Guide). Some cable(s) are not provided with the MVME712x module(s), and therefore are made or provided by the user. (Motorola recommends using shielded cables for all connections to peripherals to minimize radiation). Connect the peripherals to the cable(s). Detailed information on the EIA-232-D signals supported is found in Appendix A.

7.Connect the terminal to be used as the 177Bug system console to the default debug EIA-232-D port at serial port 1 on backplane connector P2 through an MVME712x transition module. Refer to the Single Board Computers Programmer's Reference Guide for some possible connection diagrams. Set up the terminal as follows:

❏Eight bits per character

❏One stop bit per character

❏Parity disabled (no parity)

❏Baud rate 9600 baud (default baud rate of MVME177 ports at power-up)

After power-up, the baud rate of the debug port can be reconfigured by using the Port Format (PF) command of the 177Bug debugger.
