VXI-8340 Series Default Configuration Settings
VXIbus Slot 0/Non-Slot 0
The VXI-8340 series is configured at the factory to automatically detect if
it is installed in Slot 0 of a VXIbus mainframe.
You can manually configure the VXI-8340 series for either Slot 0 or
Non-Slot 0 operation by defeating the automatic-detection circuitry.
Use the three-position jumper J1 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.
