Note
Most of the descriptions in this chapter assume the Agilent E2259A is
installed in an Agilent E2251A Carrier. The Carrier provides access to the
VXI registers.
Register Addressing in the VXIbus Environment
Logical Address
Each module in a VXIbus (VXI) system, whether VXI or M-Module, must
have a unique logical address. The Agilent E2251 Carrier provides a logical
address for each installed M-Module. Refer to the Agilent E2251
Installation and Getting Started Guide for details (if you are using a different
carrier, refer to that carrier’s documentation for register-based addressing
information).
A16/A24 Memory
Mapping
The VXI Specification allows for only 64 bytes of address space in A16
memory. However, the M-Module Specification defines 256 bytes of
address space. To resolve this conflict, the Agilent E2251 Carrier provides
two memory segments for each installed M-Module. The first is in the VXI
A16 memory space and contains the standard VXI registers. The second
memory segment is in the VXI A24 memory space and contains all other
M-Module registers (these registers are described starting on Page 41).
Figure 3-1 shows the A16/A24 mapping for a typical M-Module.
Note
The M-Module’s ID word (from the ID EEPROM) is mapped into the
VXI Manufacturer ID Register at address 00
h
and the M-Module’s
VXI Device Type word is mapped into the VXI Device Type Register at
address 02
h
