Preparing and Installing the MVME2400-Series Module

PMCs

For a discussion of any configurable items on the PMCs, refer to the user’s manual for the particular PMCs.

PMCspan

You will need to use an additional slot in the VME chassis for each PMCspan expansion module you plan to use. Before installing a PMCspan on the MVME240x, you must install the selected PMCs on the PMCspan. Refer to the PMCspan PMCAdapter Carrier Module Instllation and Use manual for instructions.

System Console Terminal

Ensure that the switches are set in the proper position for all bits on switch S3 of the MVME240x board as shown in Figure 1-2. This is necessary when the PPCBug firmware is used. Connect the terminal via a cable to the RJ45 DEBUG connector J2. See Table C-3 for pin signal assignments. 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 the port at power- up); after power-up, you can reconfigure the baud rate with PPCBug’s PF command
