Hardware Preparation and Installation
1
remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system. Remove
chassis or system cover(s) as necessary for access to the
CompactPCI modules.
Warning
To prevent injury, use extreme caution when handling, testing, and
adjusting this equipment. Dangerous voltages capable of causing death
exist.
3. Remove the filler panel from the card slot (system slot).
Caution
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage
these circuits
Note
The MCP750HA must be installed in the CompactPCI system
slot in order to provide clocks and arbitration to the other slots.
The system slot is identified with a triangle symbol, which is
marked on the backplane. Some CompactPCI subracks may have
a red guide rail to mark the system slot.
4. Set the VIO on the backplane to either 3.3V or 5V, depending upon
your system’s signaling requirements.
!
Caution
Ensure the backplane does not bus J3, J4 or J5 signals to other slots.
5. Slide the MCP750HA into the system slot. Grasping the top and
bottom injector handles, be sure the module is well seated in the P1
through P5 connectors on the backplane. Do not damage or bend
connector pins. Secure the MCP750HA in the chassis with the
screws provided, making good contact with the transverse mounting
rails to minimize RF emissions.
