MVME761 Transition Module Installation
This section applies to MVME761-compatible models of the
MVME2603/2604 VME module. With the MVME2603/2604 installed,
refer to
Figure 1-22
and proceed as follows to install an MVME761
transition module:
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD
strap to the chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to
your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.
2. Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power
off and remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system.
Remove chassis or system cover(s) as necessary for access to the
VME modules.
!
Caution
The MVME2600, MVME761-compatible models will be damaged if
mistakenly connected to the MVME712 family of boards instead of the
correct MVME761 transition modules.
Note
In MVME761-compatible models, certain signals are
multiplexed through P2 for additional I/O capacity. Refer to
P2 Signal Multiplexing
on page 3-15
for details.
!
Caution
Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage
to module components.
!
Warning
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this
equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
3. Remove the filler panel(s) from the appropriate card slot(s) at the
front or rear of the chassis. (You may need to shift other modules in
the chassis to allow space for the cabling to the MVME761.)
