Option Boards
This chapter contains information and general instructions for removing and
installing VME option boards in an AViiON computer card cage. The information in

Before you begin to install or remove a VME option board, you will need the
following:
•
A thorough understanding of the section “Avoiding ESD Damage” in Chapter 1.
•
The expanding and/or maintaining manuals for your system if you need to
jumper the backplane as noted in “Assigning Card Cage Slots” in Chapter 1.
•
Nonmagnetic needlenose pliers if you need to jumper the backplane.
•
A number 1 flat-blade screwdriver.
•
A medium Phillips screwdriver.

Card Cage Assembly
The card cage assembly in an AViiON computer system consists of a metal housing
with formed board slots and a backplane printed circuit board that attaches to the
metal housing. The card cage’s mechanical and electrical designs comply with the
specifications described in The VMEbus Specification manual.
The formed slots on computer systems covered in this manual align two Eurocard
6U form factor boards (233 mm x 160 mm) to the connectors on the backplane board.
Figure 3–1 shows a typical 6U board assembly. Figure 3–2 shows the location of the
VMEbus options card cages in the rear of typical AViiON computers.
