  • Page 15: Handling Precautions

    Application Design Considerations 2.2.1 Running from Flash or RAM? When designing an application for the 5136-PFB-VME, the first decision you have to make is whether you want to load and run the card software from flash memory or by downloading it from the host computer.

  • Page 16: Which Addressing Mode

    Installation In general, if you have access to a file system, you should load and configure the card from the host. Running from flash is preferred in embedded environments or whenever it is difficult to send files to the card, such as a VME based PLC.

The VME master selects whether a particular bus cycle accesses short, standard, extended, or long (extended and long are not used on the 5136-PFB-VME) address spaces, and the type of access, through the use of the address modifier codes.
  • Page 22 Installation Switch S1 - Position 7 Switch Position Permitted Access supervisory and non-privileged supervisory only Caution If the host makes a non-privileged access to the card when this switch is in the supervisory only position, a VMEbus error occurs. 2.4.3 Interrupts The card can generate and acknowledge interrupts on any one of VMEbus interrupt lines 1 through 7, (or none).

  • Page 23: Interrupts

    • interrupts disabled Setting the Jumpers Set the jumpers on the 5136-PFB-VME before installing the card in a VMEbus computer. These jumpers control various aspects of the card operation. 2.5.1 Transmit Enable Jumper (JP2) The transmit enable jumper JP2 controls whether the card can transmit on the network.

  • Page 24: Boot Protect Jumper (Jp9)

    Caution Do not remove this jumper. The 5136-PFB-VME contains a short bootstrap program in flash memory which is written at the factory and does not normally need to be overwritten. The boot protect jumper JP9 controls whether you can overwrite the contents of this boot program.
