Removing and Installing Boards
The Adept controller is shipped from the factory with all the boards specified on
the sales order installed in the chassis. Any unused slots are filled with blank
covers. You may want to add boards in the future or remove and reinstall a board
for some reason.
VME Bus Slot Ordering
The VME bus specification includes the concept of slot ordering, with slots being
ordered from 1 to the maximum number of slots in the VME backplane. In all
VME systems, the system controller functions must be performed by a board in
slot one. In Adept’s case, the AWC board performs the system controller functions
and slot number 1 in all Adept controllers must be filled with an AWC board. On
MV-10 controllers, slot 1 is the first slot on the left side of the controller. On MV-5
controllers, there are two blank covers on the left side followed by slot 1. On the
MV-5 and MV-10 controllers the slot numbering goes to the right from slot 1. On
the Compact Controller, slot 1 is the first slot on the right side of the controller
insert and slot ordering goes to the left from slot 1. (The slot ordering of the
Compact Controller is opposite the slot ordering of the MV-5 and MV-10.) Subject
to the restrictions listed below, after you have placed an AWC in slot 1, you are
free to place any other board in any other slot.
Requirements for Installing Boards on the Backplane
For the MV-5 and MV-10, additional boards should generally be added to the
chassis from left to right, starting with the slot to the right of the last existing
board. For the Compact Controller, additional boards must be added to the
chassis from right to left, starting with the slot to the left of the last existing board
(EJI boards are an exception and are delivered in the last slot). The VGB and EVI
boards must be installed side-by-side. See
Chapter 2
for more details on required
and optional boards.
Always turn off the controller power switch before
installing or removing boards or jumper plugs. Damage to the
controller can occur if the controller is not turned off.
You must take precautions to prevent boards from being
exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD) while you are handling or
storing them. Adept recommends using a ground strap on your
wrist when working with boards outside of the controller. Use
antistatic bags to protect boards when outside the controller.
