Getting Started
This chapter provides an overview of the VX1410 IntelliFrame. It includes
installation and configuration information on user-installable options.
Product Description
The VX1410 IntelliFrame is an intelligent, 13-slot, C-size, VXIbus Mainframe.
It fully complies with the VXIbus Specification 1.4 requirements and is VXI
Plug & Play compatible for WIN frameworks. The mainframe has the following
features:
H
High output power supply
H
Intelligent cooling for installed modules
H
High quality auto-configurable backplane
H
Optional adjustable rackmounts and cable trays
H
Optional enhanced monitor
These features are explained in more detail in the following paragraphs.
The VX1410 IntelliFrame provides all VXIbus voltages at levels necessary for
the most demanding ATE applications. The power supply has a volt-ampere
capacity of 1660 VA, but only 872 watts is usable by VXI instrument modules at
any one time (see Appendix A: Power Budget Worksheet). The mainframe
accommodates exclusively digital applications, exclusively analog applications,
or combinations of both.
The power supply plugs directly into the rear of the mainframe and has no cables
to disconnect. Because of this, the power supply can easily be replaced in less
than three minutes, keeping downtime to a minimum. The power supply
automatically sets the ranges for the appropriate input voltage and frequency; no
mechanical switch is required to select the correct line voltage.
You can order the VX1410 IntelliFrame without a power supply (Option 1D).
This option allows you to power the mainframe from an external power supply.
NOTE
. If you order your mainframe with Option 1D, all safety, electrical, and
environmental specifications no longer apply for the mainframe.
