Setting the PVA Module ID Switch
The Power, Verification, and Addressing (PVA) module provides unique addresses to
extended subsystems. Each BA370 rack-mountable enclosure in an extended
subsystem must have its own PVA ID. Use PVA ID 0 for the enclosure that contains
the controllers. Use PVA IDs 2 and 3 for the additional enclosures. Figure 2–4
illustrates the PVA settings in an extended subsystem.
See the documentation that accompanied your enclosure for more details about the
PVA and its settings.
