VXI/VME Bus Timeout Value

The VXI/VMEbus Bus Timeout (BTO) is a watchdog timer for transfers on
the VMEbus Data Transfer bus. After the specified amount of time has
elapsed, the BTO circuitry terminates a VMEbus cycle if no slave has
responded. The VXI/VME-MXI-2 must provide the VXI/VMEbus BTO
for proper operation because when a MXIbus cycle is involved, the
VXI/VMEbus timeout must be disabled and the MXIbus BTO enabled.
You should disable the BTO of any other BTO module residing in the
mainframe. If this is not possible, set its VXI Bus Timeout control to its
maximum setting to give the MXIbus cycles as much time as possible to
complete.
The lowest value in the allowable range is 15 µs and the highest value is
256 ms. The default value is 125 µs.
