Hardware Configuration
This section discusses certain hardware and software tasks that may need to be performed prior to installing the board in a chassis.
To produce the desired configuration and ensure proper operation of the MVME3100, you may need to carry out certain hardware modifications before installing the module.
Most options on the MVME3100 are software configurable. Configuration changes are made by setting bits in control registers after the board is installed in a system.
Jumpers/switches are used to control those options that are not software configurable. These jumper settings are described further on in this section. If you are resetting the board jumpers from their default settings, it is important to verify that all settings are reset properly.
MVME3100 Layout
Figure 1-1 on page 4 illustrates the placement of the jumpers, headers, connectors, switches, and various other components on the MVME3100.
There are two switch blocks which have user-selectable settings. Refer to Table 1-2, Table 1-3, and Table 1-4 for switch settings. There is one switch on the MVME721. Refer to Table 1-5 and Table 1-6 for switch settings.
