    Installation Installation The CP6500-V has been designed for easy installation. However, the following standard pre- cautions, installation procedures, and general information must be observed to ensure proper installation and to preclude damage to the board, other system components, or injury to per- sonnel.

  • Page 74: Cp6500-V Initial Installation Procedures

    Installation CP6500-V CP6500-V Initial Installation Procedures The following procedures are applicable only for the initial installation of the CP6500-V in a sys- tem. Procedures for standard removal and hot swap operations are found in their respective chapters. To perform an initial installation of the CP6500-V in a system proceed as follows: 1.

  • Page 75: Standard Removal Procedures

    Hot swapping of the CP6500-V itself when used as the system controller is possible, but will result in any event in a cold start of the CP6500-V and consequently a reinitialization of all pe- ripheral boards. Exactly what transpires in such a situation is a function of the application and is not addressed in this manual.

  • Page 76: Peripheral Hot Swap Procedure

    HS LED should light up after a short time period. This indicates that the system has recognized that the CP6500-V is to be hot swapped and now indicates to the operator that hot swapping of the CP6500-V may proceed.

    10. Using both ejector handles, engage the board with the backplane. When the ejector han- dles are locked, the board is engaged. 11. Fasten the front panel retaining screws. 12. Connect all required interfacing cables to the board. Hot swap of the CP6500-V is now complete. Installation of CP6500-V Peripheral Devices The CP6500-V is designed to accommodate a variety of peripheral devices whose installation varies considerably.

    3.5.3 Rear I/O Device Installation To ensure proper functioning of the rear I/O VGA interface, the jumpers on the CP6500-V must be configured for the rear I/O. See Chapter 4 for configuration details. For physical installation of rear I/O devices, refer to the documentation provided with the device itself.

    • Hard drives do not power up: check power cables and cabling. May also result from a bad power supply or IDE drive. Note ... A 2.5" HDD can be directly installed only on the standard CP6500-V. 2. Initialize the software necessary to run the chosen operating system. Software Installation The installation of the Ethernet and all other onboard peripheral drivers is described in detail in the relevant Driver Kit files.

    Still it is necessary to observe certain criteria essential for application stability and reliability. The table below indicates the absolute maximum input voltage ratings that must not be exceed- ed. Power supplies to be used with the CP6500-V should be carefully tested to ensure compli- ance with these ratings.

    Non-industrial ATX PSUs require a greater minimum load than a single CP6500-V is capable of creating. When a PSU of this type is used, it will not power up correctly and the CP6500-V may hangup. The solution is to use an industrial PSU or to add more load to the system.

    CP6500-V applications. Passive Thermal Regulation The thermal management architecture implemented on the CP6500-V can be described as be- ing two separate but related functions. The goal of the two functions is to protect the processor and reduce processor power consumption. Enabling the thermal control circuit allows the pro- cessor to maintain a safe operating temperature without the need for special software drivers or interrupt handling routines.

  • Page 116: Cpu Emergency Thermal Supervision

    7.2.1 Heat Sinks The CP6500-V is fitted with an optimally designed heat sink. The physical size, shape, and con- struction ensures the best possible thermal resistance (R ) coefficients. In addition, it is spe- cifically designed to efficiently support forced air flow concepts as found in a modern CompactPCI system chassis.

  • Page 117: Celeron Temperature Vs. Airspeed Graph With Heat Sink

    7.2.2 Forced Air Flow When developing applications using the CP6500-V, the system integrator must be aware of the overall system thermal requirements. System chassis must be provided which satisfy these re- quirements. As an aid to the system integrator, a characteristics graph is provided for the CP6500-V.

    An airflow of 1.0 m/s is a typical value for a standard Kontron ASM rack (6U CompactPCI rack with a 1U cooling fan tray). Newer ASMs from Kontron will have an airspeed of 2.0 m/s or more. For other racks or housings the available airflow will differ. The maximum ambient operating temperature must be recalculated and/or measured for such environments.
