6.4.2 Multiple TMB08s
As an example of connecting multiple motherboards together
consider a system consisting of two TMB08s in the same PC. In this
case:
• the two boards must have different addresses
• one board must be slaved to the other
• the default pipeline needs to be connected
• the configuration pipeline needs to be connected
First set up one board with the same configuration as for stand-alone
operation (see above). Ensure that pipe-jumpers are used in empty
TRAM slots, and in the inactive slots of any TRAMs larger than size
1, so that link 2 of the last TRAM on the motherboard is taken out to
pipe tail.
