    This section applies to all hardware installations you may perform that involve the MVME167P board. Motorola strongly recommends the use of an antistatic wrist strap and a Use ESD conductive foam pad when you install or upgrade the board. Electronic components can be extremely sensitive to ESD.

  • Page 25: Preparing The Board

    An appliance is grounded if it has a three-prong plug and is plugged into a three-prong grounded outlet. You cannot use the chassis in which you are installing the MVME167P itself as a ground, because the enclosure is unplugged while you work on it.

    If you do not intend to use the MVME167P as system controller, it can occupy any unused double-height card slot. 5. Slide the MVME167P into the selected card slot. Be sure the module is seated properly in the P1 and P2 connectors on the backplane. Do not damage or bend connector pins.

  • Page 34: System Considerations

    MVME167P may not operate properly without its main board connected to VMEbus backplane connectors P1 and P2. Whether the MVME167P operates as a VMEbus master or VMEbus slave, it is configured for 32 bits of address and 32 bits of data (A32/D32).

    Applying power to the system (as well as resetting it) triggers an initialization of the MVME167P’s MPU, hardware, and firmware along with the rest of the system. The EPROM-resident firmware initializes the devices on the MVME167P board in preparation for booting the operating system.

  • Page 40: Bringing Up The Board

    Bringing up the Board This section summarizes the configuration guidelines presented in Chapter 1 and describes the process of putting the MVME167P board into service. The MVME167P comes with MVME167Bug firmware installed. To ensure that the firmware operates properly with the board, follow the steps listed below.

Booting the System You can configure the MVME167P to boot the operating system in one of three different ways when bringing up the board: via Autoboot, ROMboot, or Network Boot. For details on resetting the MVME167P board through software, refer to the MVME1X7P Single Board Computers Programmer’s Reference Guide...

  • Page 44: Autoboot

    Chapter 3 for more details. Caution Although you can use streaming tape to autoboot, the same power supply must be connected to the tape drive, the controller, and the MVME167P. At power-up, the tape controller will position the streaming tape to the load Caution point where the volume ID can correctly be read and used.

    1. Power has just been applied (but the ENV command can change this to also respond to any reset). 2. Your routine is located within the MVME167P EPROM memory map (but the ENV command can change this to any other portion of the onboard memory, or even offboard VMEbus memory).

  • Page 46: Network Boot

    Startup and Operation Network Boot Network Auto Boot is a software routine in the 167Bug EPROM which provides a mechanism for booting an operating system using a network (local Ethernet interface) as the boot device. The Network Auto Boot routine automatically scans for controllers and devices in a specified sequence until a valid bootable device containing boot media is found or until the list is exhausted.

  • Page 47: Reset

    During warm resets, the 167Bug variables and tables are preserved, as well as the target state registers and breakpoints. Note that when the MVME167P comes up in a cold reset, 167Bug runs in Board mode. Using the Environment (ENV) or MENU commands can make 167Bug run in System mode.

  • Page 48: Abort

    Abort Aborts are invoked by pressing and releasing the ABORT switch on the MVME167P front panel. When you invoke an abort while executing a user program (running target code), a snapshot of the processor state is stored in the target registers. This characteristic makes aborts most appropriate for terminating user programs that are being debugged.

Figure 5-1 on page 5-5 shows a block diagram of the overall board architecture.

  • Page 72: Processor And Memory

    The MVME167P is based on the MC68040 microprocessor. The boards are built with 16MB, 32MB or 64MB synchronous DRAM (SDRAM). Various versions of the MVME167P may have the SDRAM configured to model 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB or 64 MB of ECC-protected DRAM.

The MVME167P have the SDRAM configured to model 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB of ECC-protected DRAM. The SDRAM memory array itself is always a single-bit error correcting and multi-bit error detection memory, irrespective of which interface model you use to access the SDRAM.

The address is $0001AFxxxxxx where xxxxxx is the unique 6-nibble number assigned to the board (i.e., every MVME167P has a different value for xxxxxx).

  • Page 80: Scsi Interface

    It is important that the SCSI bus be properly terminated at both ends. In the case of the MVME167P, sockets are provided for terminators on the P2 or LCP2 adapter board. If the SCSI bus ends at the adapter board, termination resistors must be installed on the adapter board.
