Applying Power
After you verify that all necessary hardware preparation is complete and
all connections are made correctly, you can apply power to the system.
When you are ready to apply power to the MVME6100:
❏
Verify that the chassis power supply voltage setting matches the
voltage present in the country of use (if the power supply in your
system is not auto-sensing)
❏
On powering up, the MVME6100 brings up the MOTLoad
prompt,
MVME6100>
Switches and Indicators
The MVME6100 board provides a single pushbutton switch that provides
both abort and reset (ABT/RST) functions. When the switch is depressed
for less than three seconds, an abort interrupt is generated to the processor.
If the switch is held for more than three seconds, a board hard reset is
generated. The board hard reset will reset the MPC7457, MV64360,
Tsi148 VME Bridge ASIC, PCI6520, PMC1/2 slots, both Ethernet PHYs,
serial ports, PMCspan slot, both flash banks, and the device bus control
PLD. If the MVME6100 is enabled for VME system controller, the VME
bus will be reset and local reset input is sent to the Tsi148 VME controller.
