    Installation Installation The CP6930 has been designed for easy installation. However, the following standard precautions, installa- tion procedures, and general information must be observed to ensure proper installation and to preclude damage to the board, other system components, or injury to personnel.
  • Page 26: Cp6930 Initial Installation Procedures

    Installation 2.2 CP6930 Initial Installation Procedures The following procedures are applicable only for the initial installation of the CP6930 in a system. Proce- dures for standard removal and hot swap operations are found in their respective chapters. To perform an initial installation of the CP6930 in a system proceed as follows: 1.
  • Page 27: Standard Removal Procedures

    7. Dispose of the board as required. 2.4 Software Installation The CP6930 comes as a pre-installed system with all necessary OS, filesystem, drivers and applications fac- tory-installed with default configurations. Updating the Software with new operating system or applications or new versions is provided by a dedicated update mechanism, which is described in Chapter 4.
  • Page 28: Out-Of-Band Cli Access

    2.5.1.2 Fast Ethernet Serviceport The Gigabit Ethernet serviceport on the CP6930 front plate has no IP address set by default, it is necessary to assign an IP address statically or enable dhcp on the serviceport. Because the required configuration steps are done in the CLI, an initial access using the serial port is required.
  • Page 29: In-Band Cli Access

    The procedure for assigning an IP address to the network port is described in the following. User input is printed in bold letters. 1. Connect to serial port on the front plate (using the Kontron DB9 adapter cable) or RIO module (using a RJ45 straight cable).
  • Page 30 To access the CLI via Fast Ethernet networkport, open a telnet connection to the configured IP address, port It might make sense to separate the management network from the data path by setting appropriate VLANs For additional information on the system configuration, refer to the CP6930 CLI Reference Manual.

    The CP6930 has six temperature sensors which ensure operation within the specified temperature limits. The sensors are accessible via the Peripheral Manager. Although temperature sensing information is made avail- able to the PM, the CP6930 itself does not provide any active means of temperature regulation. The following temperatures are measured by the Peripheral Manager.

    Thermal Considerations The area between the front panel and the backplane connectors is divided into five zones. The following dia- gram shows the airflow distribution across those zones. Figure 5-4: Airflow Distribution by Test Section CP6930 User Guide www.kontron.com...

    6.1.1 Baseboard The CP6930 baseboard itself has been designed for optimal power input and distribution. Still it is necessary to observe certain criteria essential for application stability and reliability. The board is supplied by the 3.3V and the 5.0V from the backplane. All supply voltages from the backplane are enabled with a predefined ramp-up time.
  • Page 87: Power Supply Units

    An ATX power supply unit should be able to provide at least three times as much power as the entire system requires. As the design of the CP6930 has been optimized for minimal power consumption, the power supply unit shall be stable even without minimum load.
  • Page 88: Table 6-2: Input Voltage Characteristics

    For example, if the +5V begins to decrease, +3.3V must decrease accordingly. This is required in order to preclude cross currents within the CP6930. Failure to comply with above may result in damage to the board or improper system operation.

    57.6 6.3 Start-up Currents The start-up currents of the CP6930 during the first 2-3 seconds after power has been applied (power-on or hot-swap insertion) are less than the maximum currents given in Table 6-3 for each of the variants. CP6930 User Guide...
