Getting Started 2-3
Below are some examples of possible configurations:
Example 1:
A single Option-01T may control all Adapt-a-Switch
plug-ins in one or two 1260-100X Carriers. When it
controls two carriers, the carriers must be in adjacent
slots in the VXIbus chassis, with the Option-01T-
equipped carrier in the left-most slot of the group.
A single Option-01T may control all Adapt-a-Switch
plug-ins in a 1260-101, a 1260-100, or a 1260-100X
Carriers. When it controls two carriers, the carriers must
be in adjacent slots in the VXIbus chassis, with the
Option-01T-equipped carrier in the left-most slot of the
group. A single option_01T will not control more than
one 1260-101.
Example 2:
A single Option-01T may control a group of 1260-Series
switch modules. The modules must be installed in a
contiguous group of slots in the VXIbus chassis. Figure
2-1 shows the configuration which the left most 1260-
100 carrier is with Option 01-T installed and one 1260-
100X carrier.
Example 3:
A single Option-01T may control a mixed group of
1260-Series switch modules and Adapt-a-Switch plug-
ins. The maximum number of items in each group is
twelve. Each 1260-100X carrier counts as six plug-ins
and each 1260-101 carrier counts as two plug-ins,
regardless of the quantity of plug-ins actually installed.
For instance, a single Option-01T may control the
following group:
•
Slot 3:1260-54 RF Switch (conventional one-slot
VXI module), equipped with Option-01T
•
Slots 4 and 5:1260-100 Adapt-a-Switch carrier,
containing three 1260-138 plug-ins and two
1260-150 RF switch plug-ins.
•
Slot 6:1260-22 Power Switch (conventional one-
slot VXI module)
•
Slot 7:1260-22 Power Switch
