    If it is necessary to install mezzanines on the base board, refer to the following sections for a brief description of the installation procedure. ESD Precautions Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a Use ESD conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading the system. Electronic components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive to ESD.
  • Page 61: Chapter 3 Hardware Installation

    Hardware Installation Attach the grounding end (usually a piece of copper foil or an alligator clip) to an electrical ground. An electrical ground can be a piece of metal that literally runs into the ground (such as an unpainted metal pipe) or a metal part of a grounded electrical appliance.

  • Page 143: Overview

    Overview The PowerPC debugger, PPCBug, is a versatile tool used to evaluate and debug systems built around Motorola PowerPC microcomputers. Its primary uses are to test and initialize the system hardware, determine the hardware configuration, and boot the operating system. Facilities are also available for loading and executing user programs under complete operator control for system evaluation.
  • Page 144: Chapter 7 Ppcbug Firmware

    The flow of control in PPCBug is described in the PPCBug Firmware Package User’s Manual. PPCBug is similar to previous Motorola firmware debugging packages (MVME147Bug, MVME167Bug, MVME187Bug), with differences due to microprocessor architectures. These are primarily reflected in the instruction mnemonics, register displays, addressing modes of the assembler/disassembler, and the passing of arguments to the system calls.

    Use the Debugger Use the Debugger PPCBug is command-driven and performs its various operations in response to commands that you enter at the keyboard. When the PPC1- Bug prompt appears on the screen, the debugger is ready to accept debugger commands. When the PPC1-Diag prompt appears on the screen, the debugger is ready to accept diagnostics commands.

  • Page 180: Introduction

    CSerial Interconnections Introduction As described in previous chapters of this manual, the MVME2700 serial communications interface has four ports. Two of them are combined synchronous/asynchronous ports; the other two are asynchronous only. Both synchronous and asynchronous ports supply an EIA-232-D DCE/DTE interface via P2 and the MVME712M transition module.
  • Page 181: Eia-232-D Connections

    EIA-232-D Connections synchronous (SDLC/HDLC) and asynchronous protocols. The hardware supports asynchronous serial baud rates of 110B/s to 38.4Kb/s and synchronous baud rates of up to 2.5Mb/s. Each port supports the CTS, DCD, RTS, and DTR control signals, as well as the TxD and RxD transmit/receive data signals and TxC/RxC synchronous clock signals.

The EIA-530 standard defines the mechanical aspects of this interface, which is used for transmission of serial binary data, both synchronous and asynchronous. It is adaptable to balanced (double-ended) as well as unbalanced (single-ended) signaling and offers the possibility of higher data rates than EIA-232-D with the same DB25 connector.
