Chapter 2 – Installation

This chapter describes how to install the XVME-977 Hard Disk/Floppy Disk Module

into the VMEbus backplane. It also provides information on connecting the XVME-977

to Xycom’s XVME-65x VMEbus PC/AT processor modules.

Installing into a VMEbus Card Cage

The XVME-977 occupies only one double-high VMEbus slot, and fits into any standard

6U VMEbus card cage. Like all of Xycom’s modules, the XVME-977 is designed to

comply with all electrical VMEbus backplane specifications. This module only draws

current from the +5 volt power supply.

Caution

Never attempt to install or remove any boards before turning

off power to the bus and all related external power supplies.
Before installing a module, determine and verify all connec-

tions to external devices or power supplies.

Figure Chapter 2 -1 depicts installation of the XVME-977 board.
