Chapter 4: Meridian Link/CCR hardware
IPE Module
Meridian Link and CCR hardware consists of either an IPE Module or an
Application Module. This chapter describes both of these modules.
Note: If you require a redundant Meridian Link, an additional
Meridian Link Module (either an IPE Module or an Application
Module) must be installed.
Both the IPE Module and the Application Module use a base operating
system (BOS), which supports Meridian Link and CCR. BOS is release 3
version 7.1 of UNIX System V for 68000-family CPUs. For advanced users
who need more information, BOS provides operating system information in
the form of online manual (MAN) pages.
The IPE Module can be installed in a MeridianÊ1 Option 11 main cabinet or
expansion cabinet, or in a Meridian 1 Options 21Ð81 IPE shelf.
In a Meridian 1 Option 11 system, the IPE Module occupies three
consecutive slots in the main cabinet (Figure 6) or expansion cabinet
(Figure 7). Those three slots must not include slot 1 (reserved for the
SDI/TDS [NTAK03AA] card) or slots 10Ð12 in the main cabinet (reserved
for Meridian Mail).
Power for the IPE Module comes from the cabinetÕs IPE backplane and
consists of +5 V and Ð48 V.
