VX4792 Installation
VX4792 User Manual
You may insert the waveform generator into any empty slot in the mainframe
except Slot 0. Be sure the logical address is set before installing the waveform
generator into the mainframe (see Setting the Logical Address on page 1–4).
CAUTION. If you install the waveform generator into a D-size mainframe, be sure
to connect the P1 and P2 connectors of the module to the P1 and P2 connectors
on the mainframe. Electrical damage will result when connecting the P1 and P2
connectors on the module to the P2 and P3 connectors on the mainframe.
To avoid electrical damage, look for bent pins on P1 and P2 before installation.
NOTE. Each module runs either synchronously (master and slave modules) or
asynchronously. For synchronous operation, modules must be adjacent within
the mainframe. See page 2–41 for an example of synchronous operation.
Use the following installation procedure and Figure 1–2 on page 1–8 to install
the waveform generator into the mainframe:
1. On the mainframe, ensure that the power ON/STANDBY switch is OFF.
2. Decide into which slots of the mainframe you install the module. The
VX4792 is double wide module and requirs two slots in the VXI mainframe.
3. Insert the module into the mainframe top and bottom module guides and
push it partially into the mainframe (Figure 1–2). Then slide the module into
the mainframe as far as it will go without forcing it.
4. Be sure the front panel is flush with the front of the mainframe chassis. If so,
use a flat-bladed screwdriver to install the top and bottom module retainer
screws. Alternate between the screws, applying only a few turns at a time to
fully seat the module.
