Rear Transition Board

Caution
2 - 12
It is possible to have IDE devices on the board which are connected to the
local PCI bus. A hard disk, a CompactFlash disk or both can be installed.
The devices are fixed on a carrier PMC module which also includes an IDE
controller. Hard disk or CompactFlash disk are connected to the primary
IDE interface of the controller. The PMC module with the IDE device has to
be installed into one of the PMC slots.
For the available carrier PMC modules with IDE devices, refer to "Order
Numbers" page 1-7. For installation of the PMC modules, refer to "PMC
Module" page 2-8.
Further devices can be connected to the secondary IDE interface via a rear
transition board if a PMC-244FP is plugged in PMC slot 1.
Note: If you want to connect further IDE devices via RTB, install the
PMC-244FP module into PMC slot 1 since only PMC slot 1 has routed the
secondary IDE interface of the IDE controller to the backplane. If you in-
stall it into PMC slot 2 the IDE devices on the secondary IDE interface do
not work. For further information, refer to the ACC/RTB-602 Installation
Guide.
As a separate price list item, Motorola offers the ACC/RTB-602. The RTB
provides access to the board's CompactPCI user I/O interfaces via industry
standard connectors. For further information, refer to the ACC/RTB-602
Installation Guide.
Damage to board and RTB
Installing another RTB than the ACC/RTB-602 causes short circuits and
damage to the CPU board and the RTB.
Only use the ACC/RTB-602 for CPCI-690 boards.
