This chapter contains the instructions to configure and install the
VME-MXI-2 module. This chapter applies only if your kit contains a
VME-MXI-2. If you ordered the VXI kit, you should refer to Chapter 5,
VXI-MXI-2 Configuration and
Configuration and Installation.
Configuring the VME-MXI-2 is optional. A typical configuration can use
the default settings.
This section describes how to configure the following options on the
VME-MXI-2:
• VMEbus A16 base address
• MXIbus termination
• Configuration EEPROM
• Onboard DRAM
• VME-MXI-2 intermodule signaling
The VME-MXI-2 automatically detects if it is located in the first slot of the
chassis to perform the VMEbus System Controller functions. It is not
necessary to configure the VMEbus System Controller option. You can
install the module in any slot of a VMEbus chassis.
