If you install DRAM into the VXI-MXI-2, do not attempt to use the first 4 KB of

memory space. This 4 KB space maps to the registers on the VXI-MXI-2 and does not
access onboard DRAM. Accessing this region will cause your VXI-MXI-2 to behave
incorrectly.

If you are installing more than one VXI-MXI-2 in a single VXIbus chassis,
you must configure the boards to use the local bus. The VXI-MXI-2 uses
the local bus to pass a signal to the other VXI-MXI-2 modules in the chassis
to disable the VMEbus bus timeout unit (BTO) during cycles that map to
the MXIbus. Because the local bus is used, you must install all VXI-MXI-2
modules for a single chassis in adjacent slots.
