5. Refer to the setup procedure for your particular chassis or system for
details concerning the installation of the MVME2300SC and the
implementation of the SCbus.
6. Confirm that the terminal to be used as the PPCBug system console
is connected to the DB9
the MVME2300SC. (Other connection options may exist, but they
depend on the nature of your overall system configuration.) The
console terminal should be set up as follows:
– Eight bits per character
– One stop bit per character
– Parity disabled (no parity)
– Baud rate 9600 baud (the power-up default)
After power-up, you can reconfigure the baud rate of the debug port
by using the PPCBug Port Format (PF) command.
Whatever the baud rate, some form of hardware handshaking —
Note
either XON/XOFF or via the RTS/CST line — is desirable if the
system supports it. If you get garbled messages and missing
characters, you should check the terminal to make sure that
handshaking is enabled.
7. Verify that the remaining equipment in your system is installed and
configured as appropriate.
8. Power up the system. PPCBug executes some self-checks and
displays the debugger prompt
mode.
However, if the ENV command has placed PPCBug in System
mode, the system performs a self-test and tries to autoboot. Refer to
the ENV and MENU command descriptions
Environment on page
If the confidence test fails, the test is aborted when the first fault is
encountered. If possible, an appropriate message is displayed, and
control then returns to the menu.
