MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference Assemblies of 3U-format boards can be made with either of two CPU processor boards – a 3U MACRO-CPU board, or a 3U Turbo PMAC2 CPU board. Most other 3U-format boards, labeled “Accessory” boards, can be used with either CPU board. •...

MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference 3U MACRO-CPU CONFIGURATION The purchase of the 3U MACRO CPU board provides a 3U-format (100mm x 160mm) board with a DSP processor, MACRO ring circuitry, “piggyback” connectors onto which “stack” accessory boards can be mounted, and a backplane connector through which other 3U-format boards can be connected by means of a “UBUS” passive-backplane board.
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference 3U MACRO CPU BOARD HARDWARE SETUP The hardware setup of the 3U MACRO CPU Board consists of the setting of 2 rotary switches, the setting of several E-point jumpers on each board, followed by power supply and signal connections. Note E-Point Jumper numbers are shown in white ink on the legend of each board.
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference SW2 Rotary Switch Setting: SW2 establishes the number of the master IC to which the MACRO station will respond. The values of 0 to 15 correspond to Master numbers 0 to 15, respectively. For a non-Turbo PMAC2 master, this value must match the master number value in the first hexadecimal digit of PMAC2’s I996.

MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference ACC-Ux “UBUS” backplane board. It can also be used to bring in 5V power, and optionally +/-15V power, from a backplane or breakout board, to the entire MACRO Station. Note When interfacing to accessory boards across the UBUS backplane, it is strongly recommended to use a new revision (-105 or higher) of the MACRO CPU board, and an ACC-Ux backplane board (not an older ACC-Jx backplane board).

Rev -105 Rev -104 Jumper Description Default and Later and Earlier Type Location Location Jump pins 1 and 2 to access the receiver’s signal detect operation. Pin 1-2 Jump pins 2 and 3 to bypass the receiver’s signal detect operation.
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference JP5-JP6: MACRO Copper EQ Select (rev -104 and earlier) Rev -105 Rev -104 Jumper Description Default and Later and Earlier Type Location Location These jumpers are used to select different modes of not jumpered equalization when copper-based communications are used. When not jumpered, adaptive equalization is used.
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference MACRO STATION CHARACTER DISPLAY The Compact MACRO Station has a single hexadecimal character display on the CPU/Interface Board that provides useful information as to the status of the station. The display can show the following values: Value Meaning (Blank) Ring not active...
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference HARDWARE RE-INITIALIZATION MACRO hardware reinitialization to factory defaults is enabled when the SW1 setting is set to 15 or F (hexidecimal) and the power is cycled at the MACRO Station. The only time the user would want to use a hardware reinitialization to factory defaults with the MACRO Station would be if the MACRO Station always powers up with a watchdog (typically if the ring clock at the Ultralite is different than the ring clock at the MACRO Station).
MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference FIRMWARE UPDATES Downloading new firmware to the MACRO Station is a simple process once the MACRO board is setup properly. To download new firmware to the MACRO station, the user must have the following items: 5V power supply 2 jumpers DB9 female to 10 pin header (any cable used for PMAC RS232 communications) PC at the DOS prompt.

MACRO-CPU Hardware Reference ACCESSORIES Both the Turbo and the MACRO CPU boards can support either the Stack or the UMAC configuration. The systems are configured modularly with the selection of a series of accessory boards, some appropriate for the Stack, and some appropriate for the UMAC. These accessories are listed here. Each has its own manual for detailed description.
