The blue Hot Swap LED located on the front panel is illuminated to indicate when it is

permissible to extract a board in systems that support the Full Hot Swap System Model.

The M87x currently supports the Basic Hot Swap System Model. The Basic Hot Swap

System Model does not illuminate the blue LED. The blue LED will turn on briefly when a

card is inserted into an energized device or when the device is reset. If the blue LED

remains illuminated after insertion into an M87x or remains illuminated after the Host

module has booted, the associated card is malfunctioning.

The Transducer Input Module is a one board design that contains the CompactPCI

backplane connector and interface circuitry, jumper blocks for the input type selection, the

input transient protection circuitry, an analog-to-digital converter, a local microcontroller

and the input terminal block.

Transducer Input Modules are ordered by specifying an input type and the module is

shipped from the factory with all inputs configured for that specified transducer input type.

The input type configuration is determined by jumper settings and can easily be re-

configured in the field. Each input of the Transducer Input Module can be independently

configured to support either the 0 to 1mA, 4 to 20mA, or 0 to 10V transducer input formats.

ML0021

Removable Terminal Blocks, accepts #16-28AWG (1.4-

0.09mm) wire. Recommended Torque Rating is 2.2 In-

Lbs, 0.25 N-m. Standard 0.150" (3.81mm) header

socket accepts other standard terminal types.

Twisted pair, solid core wire (preferred), or stranded wire

with the use of "bootlace ferrules," where these are

available.
