source (the onboard battery is disconnected). Verify that this
configuration is appropriate for your application.
7. Header J16 defines the state of Flash memory write protection. The
factory configuration has the jumper installed, permitting writes to
Flash. Verify that this setting is appropriate for your application.
8. The EPROM/Flash configuration header, J20, should be jumpered
between pins 5-6, 9-11, and 8-10. This sets it up for a 512Kbit x 8
EPROM density, the factory default.
9. Verify that the settings of configuration switches S3 (MC2 DRAM
size), S5 (IP DMA snoop control, IP Reset mode, and Flash Write
Enable mode), and S6 (MCECC DRAM size) are appropriate for
your memory controller emulation.
10. Refer to the setup procedure for your particular chassis or system for
details concerning the installation of the MVME162P2.
11. Connect the terminal to be used as the 162Bug system console to the
default EIA-232-D port at Serial Port 1 on the front panel of the
MVME162P2. Set the terminal up as follows:
– Eight bits per character
– One stop bit per character
– Parity disabled (no parity)
– Baud rate 9600 baud (the power-up default)
After power-up, you can reconfigure the baud rate of the debug port
by using the 162Bug Port Format (PF) command.
Note Whatever the baud rate, some form of hardware handshaking
— either XON/XOFF or via the RTS/CST line — is desirable
if the system supports it. If you get garbled messages and
missing characters, you should check the terminal to make
sure that handshaking is enabled.
12. If you have equipment (such as a host computer system and/or a
serial printer) to connect to the other EIA-232-D port connectors,
connect the appropriate cables and configure the port(s) as detailed
