VXI-1394 Default Configuration Settings
VXIbus Slot 0/Non-Slot 0
The VXI-1394 is configured at the factory to automatically detect if it is
installed in Slot 0 of a VXIbus mainframe. With automatic Slot 0 detection,
you can install the VXI-1394 into any VXIbus slot.
You can manually configure the VXI-1394 for either Slot 0 or Non-Slot 0
operation by defeating the automatic-detection circuitry. Use the
three-position jumper W1 to select automatic Slot 0 detection, Slot 0, or
Non-Slot 0 operation. Figure C-2 shows these three settings.
Caution
Do not install a device configured for Slot 0 into another slot without first
reconfiguring it to either Non-Slot 0 or automatic configuration. Neglecting to do this
could damage the device, the VXIbus backplane, or both.
