2.11
Installation and Power-up
Before the board is installed in a CompactPCI chassis, check the following points:
l
The backplane V(I/O) configuration. The PP 110/01x board can be ordered pre-config-
ured for either 5V or 3.3V V(I/O). Some CompactPCI backplanes are pre-wired for a par-
ticular voltage and others can be configured by the user.
CAUTION
The board configuration must match the backplane configuration, otherwise one or
both may be damaged.
WARNING
V(I/O) must be wired on the backplane. If it is not wired the board will hang during
POST.
l
The Power Supply Unit current capabilities. The board draws current primarily from the
+5V and 3.3V rails, and the details are provided in Section A.4.
l
Front panel keys. PICMG 2.10 describes a method of keying CompactPCI board front
panels to individual chassis slots. Keying pins for this purpose are supplied with the
board but are not fitted. The user is referred to PICMG 2.10 for information on using
these keys.
The board can be installed as a System Controller in the system slot or as a peripheral or
satellite board in a peripheral slot. In satellite mode the CompactPCI interface is disabled and
hence the board will not be recognized by the system controller. When acting as the System
Controller, the board cannot be Hot Swapped.
2.11.1 Non Hot Swap Procedure - Installing
If your system requires the use of the EMC spring contact strips provided, fit strips into the slots
on the long edges of the front panel.
The board is installed and powered up as follows:
1)
Make sure that system power is turned OFF.
2)
Slide the board into the designated slot, making sure that the board fits neatly into the
runners.
3)
Push the board into the card-cage until the J1 ... J5 connectors are firmly located. Use the
injector/ejector handles for the final push.
4)
Screw the ejector handle retaining bolts into the holes in the chassis.
5)
Connect the I/O cables to the connectors on the board’s front panel and fix in place with the
connectors’ retaining screws.
6)
If using a Transition Module, install it at the rear of the backplane and connect the I/O
cables.
7)
Power-up the system. The following sequence of events should then occur:
l
The green “RUN” LED and the yellow “POST” LED on the front panel will light.
l
The yellow “POST” LED will switch OFF.
If power-up does not follow the sequence described above this will indicate that the board is
not operational.
NOTE
This sequence of events assumes the PP 110/01x has Concurrent Technologies
standard BIOS firmware and that the board is configured to the factory setting
described in Section 2.3.
2.11.2 Non Hot Swap Procedure - Removing
To remove the board, shut down the application and operating system software before powering
down the system, opening the ejector handles and extracting the board.
