Hardware Preparation and Installation

the 14-pin combined LED-mezzanine/remote-reset connector, J1. The FUS LED (DS5) on the MVME2603/2604 front panel illuminates when all three voltages are available.

In MVME712M I/O mode, the MVME2603/2604 supplies SCSI terminator power through a 1A fuse (F1) located on the P2 adapter board. If the fuse is blown, the SCSI device(s) may function erratically or not at all. With the P2 adapter board cabled to a transition module and with an SCSI bus connected to the transition module, the green SCSI LED on the module illuminates when SCSI terminator power is available. If the SCSI LED on the transition module flickers during SCSI bus operation, check fuse F1 on the P2 adapter board.

Note Because any device on the SCSI bus can provide the TERMPWR signal, and because the MVME2603/2604 FUS LED monitors the status of several voltages, the LED does not directly indicate the condition of any single fuse. If the FUS LED flickers or goes out, check all the fuses (polyswitches).

In MVME761 I/O mode, the MVME2603/2604 supplies SCSI terminator power through a polyswitch (resettable fuse) located on the P2 adapter board.

The MVME2603/2604 base board supplies a SPEAKER_OUT signal to the 14-pin combined LED-mezzanine/remote-reset connector, J1. When J1 is used as a remote reset connector with the LED mezzanine removed, the SPEAKER_OUT signal can be cabled to an external speaker. For the pin assignments of J1, refer to Table 4-1 on page 4-3.

On the MVME2603/2604 base board, the standard serial console port (COM1) serves as the PPCBug debugger console port. The firmware console should be set up as follows:

Eight bits per character

One stop bit per character

Parity disabled (no parity)

Baud rate of 9600 baud
