For Ethernet LAN support, Application Modules must contain:
¥ an MVME167-02 SBC card
¥ an MVME712M transition card
¥ a generic I/O panel
¥ NT7D47DA and NT7D47EA cables
For more information about installing the NT7D47DA and NT7D47EA
cables, refer to Procedure 28: Installing the cables for Ethernet LAN support
(Application Module) in Chapter 17, ÒHardware upgrade.Ó
For more information about the MVME167-02 card, the MVME712M
transition card, and the generic I/O panel, refer to Chapter 4,
ÒMeridian Link/CCR hardware.Ó
If an IPE Module or an Application Module is removed from the network,
the remaining modules and PCs that used to have access must be informed
of the disconnection. How to remove the IPE Module or Application
Module entry from the accessing database depends on the TCP/IP software
used on the PC.
When you disconnect the IPE Module or Application Module from the
network, you must use the maint command stopNSE to disable the NSE
software, or error messages will appear on the system console.
Module address and module name
Meridian Link allows a personal computer connected to an Ethernet LAN to
be used as a maintenance terminal for an IPE Module or Application
Module also connected to the LAN. To use this feature, you must tell
Meridian Link
¥ where the IPE Module or Application Module is located in the network
(the module address)
¥ how the IPE Module or the Application Module can be identified (the
module name)
