This chapter contains the instructions to configure and install the
VME-MXI-2 module. This chapter applies only if you ordered the
VME-PCI8026 interface kit. If you ordered the VXI-PCI8026 kit, you
should refer to Chapter 3,
This section describes how to configure the following options on the
VME-MXI-2:
•
VMEbus A16 base address
•
VME-MXI-2 intermodule signaling
•
MXIbus termination
•
Configuration EEPROM
•
Onboard DRAM
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 VME-MXI-2 System Controller option. The
module can be installed in any slot of a VMEbus chassis.
Figure 4-1 shows the VME-MXI-2. The drawing shows the location and
factory-default settings of the configuration switches and jumpers on the
