Introduction

ADLINK PXIS-2700 is an 18-slot PXI/CompactPCI chassis providing 17
PXI peripheral expansion slots and one system slot with two PXI-to-PXI
bridges. The chassis incorporates all features defined by the PXI and
CompactPCI specifications. Both PXI and CompactPCI modules can be
used in the chassis. An internal 10MHz reference clock is available on all
17 PXI slots. The PXI trigger bus is divided into three segments. The star
trigger signals are available from 3rd to 15th slots.

The PXIS-2700 is equipped with 460W + 460W redundant po wer units to
provide reliable and easy to maintain power to the system. The status of
system power supply, temperature, and cooling fans are monitored by t he
alarm module assembled in the chassis. Once a failure is detected, a LED
and buzzer will be actuated. The failure fans can be removed from the
front panel and hot swappable, which can effectively reduce MTTR
(Mean-Time-To-Repair).

The PXI-3710 (3-slot version, without floppy disk drive) and PXI-3710F (4­slot version, with floppy disk drive) are designed to fit in the PXIS-2700
chassis. With all the powerful and convenient design, the PXIS-2700 is
ideal for high performance applications and a large number of I/O
modules.

1.3 OEM options

The standard PXIS-2700 chassis includes backplanes and a power supply
unit in addition to the enclosure metal parts. The following sections depict
the standard parts used in the PXIS-2700.

1.3.1 Backplane

PXIS-2700 equipped with cBX-3018L, 18-slot PXI backplane. Please refer
to Appendix B for more technical information of the backplane.

Besides the standard backplanes, we provide more options for OEM
customers, as long as the request backplane is PXI or 3U CompactPCI
form factor compliant with 21-slot width limitation.

For example, application may require 32-bit only, rear I/O, or may need to
use custom power supply connector and additional custom features on
the backplane. ADLINK provides custom design and manufacturing
services. Please contact us for more details.

1.3.2 Chassis Color and Logo

The standard color of PXI-2700 is beige. ADLINK provides custom
chassis color or paint specific logo for OEM, with minimum order
requirement. Please contact us for more details.

Installation

2.1 Power Budget Consideration

Prior to installing any cards into the PXIS-2700 chassis, please calculate
the system power requirement. The power budget for every DC power
sources shall also be checked, including +5V, +3.3V, +12V, -12V supply
rail. Please refer to Appendix A for the maximum usable power.

2.2 Step for Installation

Follow the step to power on the chassis.

Step 1: Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position.

Step 2: Plug in the AC power cord in each po wer supply unit.

Step 3: Install the controller. Please check the ejector/injector handle is

pushed down. Align the controller edge to the “RED” card guide,
sliding in to the rear of the chassis. Push up on the
ejector/injector handle to fully inject the card into the chassis.

Secure the screws on the module’s front panel.
Step 4: Install peripheral modules if a ny.
Step 5: Press the power switch on the front panel to power on the

chassis.
Step 6: Check the LED to make sure the power input is ready. There

are four green LED indicators of 3.3V, 5V, +12V, and -12V. The

four LED will light when power turn on. The fans should

become operational as well.

Note: If the chassis does not power on, see Chapter 4, troubleshooting and

Preventative Maintenance.

2.3 System Monitoring

There are LEDs on the front panel for system monitoring, including
powers, temperature, and fans. Please refer to following for the detailed
meaning of display status on LEDs.

The Alarm Buzzer beeps continuously if any alarm occurs. When the
Alarm Buzzer beeps, users can check the LED on the front panel to find
out which kind of alarm occurs.

There is a black button labeled Alarm RST near by the Alarm LED on the
front panel. When the Alarm LED flashes and the Alarm Buzzer continues
beeping, you can push Alarm RST button to stop beeping.

Users can further refer to Chapter 4 for Troubleshooting.
There is one Green LED on each power supply unit in the rear an d the red

button between the power supply units is power RST. When the alarm
buzzer beeps and the power LED extinguishes, you can push power RST
button to stop beeping and refer to Chapter 4.5 to hot-swap the power
supply unit..

2.4 Grounding on the Mounting Holes

There are two kinds of grounding for the mounting holes of the backplane.
The mounting holes labeled as “GND” with “circle soldering mask” are
connected to the logic ground plane of the backplane. The mounting holes
labeled as “FGND” with “square soldering mask” are not connected to the
ground plane therefore it provides the isolation between the logic ground
and the chassis ground.

The backplane is mounted on the PXIS-2700 through al l mounting holes
by default, therefore the chassis ground is short to the logic ground. For
applications that require isolation between the logic ground and the
chassis ground, users can remove the screws on the GND mounting
holes.
