2.2.6 Optional VMEbus Configurations
The BajaPPC-750 has an optional configuration that includes a six-row, 114-pin,
VMEbus connector at P0 (see page 29 for pin assignments). It also has an optional
configuration that includes a three-row, 96-pin, VMEbus connector at P2 (see
page 33 for pin assignments). This optional P2 configuration provides compat-
ability with the Motorola MVME712M transition module. Also, the software can
read bit 6 of the Board Configuration Register at FF98,0020

to determine which
P2 configuration is installed on the BajaPPC-750 (see Register Map 2-1). A value
of zero in this field indicates the standard configuration, while a one indicates
the optional configuration.
