Hardware Preparation and Installation
1.1Overview
This chapter contains the following information:
Board and accessory preparation and installation instructions
ESD precautionary notes
1.2Introduction
The MVME5500 is a single-board computer based on the PowerPC MPC7457 processor and the
Marvell GT-64260B host bridge with a dual PCI interface and memory controller. On-board
payload includes two PMC slots, two SDRAM banks, an expansion connector for two additional
banks of SDRAM, 8MB boot Flash ROM, one 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, one 10/100 Ethernet
port, 32MB expansion Flash ROM, two serial ports, NVRAM and a real-time clock.
Chapter 1
The MVME5500 interfaces to a VMEbus system via its P1 and P2 connectors and contains two
IEEE 1386.1 PCI mezzanine card (PMC) slots. The PMC slots are 64-bit and support both front
and rear I/O.
Additionally, the MVME5500 is user-configurable by setting on-board jumpers. Two I/O modes
are possible: PMC mode or SBC mode (also called 761 or IPMC mode). The SBC mode uses the
IPMC712 I/O PMC and the MVME712M transition module, or the IPMC761 I/O PMC and the
MVME761 transition module. The SBC mode is backwards compatible with the MVME761
transition module and the P2 adapter card (excluding PMC I/O routing) used on the
MVME5100 product. This mode is accomplished by configuring the on-board jumpers and by
attaching an IPMC761 PMC in PMC slot 1. Secondary Ethernet is configured to the rear.
PMC mode is backwards compatible with the MVME5100 and is accomplished by configuring
the on-board jumpers.

Hardware Preparation and Installation
1.4Getting Started
This section provides an overview of the steps necessary to install and power up the
MVME5500 and a brief section on unpacking and ESD precautions.
1.5Overview of Startup Procedures
The following table lists the things you will need to do before you can use this board and tells
where to find the information you need to perform each step. Be sure to read this entire
chapter, including all Caution and Warning notes, before you begin.

1.6Unpacking Guidelines
Unpack the equipment from the shipping carton. Refer to the packing list and verify that all
items are present. Save the packing material for storing and reshipping of equipment.
MVME55006E Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800A37J)
21
Hardware Preparation and Installation
If the shipping carton is damaged upon receipt, request that the carrier’s agent be present
during the unpacking and inspection of the equipment.
Product Damage
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage circuits.
Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage to module
components.
ESD
Artesyn strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam
pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components, such as disk drives,
computer boards, and memory modules can be extremely sensitive to electrostatic
discharge (ESD). After removing the component from its protective wrapper or from the
system, place the component flat on a grounded, static-free surface (and, in the case of a
board, component side up). Do not slide the component over any surface.
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by wearing an
antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores) that is attached to an active electrical
ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is unplugged.
Personal Injury or Death
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment.
Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
1.7Configuring the Hardware
This section discusses certain hardware and software tasks that may need to be performed
prior to installing the board in a chassis.
22
MVME55006E Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800A37J)
To produce the desired configuration and ensure proper operation of the MVME5500, you may
need to carry out certain hardware modifications before installing the module.
Most options on the MVME5500 are software configurable. Configuration changes are made
by setting bits in control registers after the board is installed in a system.
Jumpers and switches are used to control those options that are not software configurable.
These settings are described further on in this section. If you are resetting the board jumpers
or switches from their default settings, it is important to verify that all settings are reset
properly.
1.7.1Configuring the Board
Figure 1-2 illustrates the placement of the jumpers, headers, switches, connectors, and various
other components on the MVME5500. There are several manually configurable headers and
switches on the MVME5500 and their settings are shown in Table 1-2. Each default setting is
enclosed in brackets. For pin assignments on the MVME5500, refer to Chapter 5, Connector Pin
Assignments.

All of the headers described below are used in conjunction with each other to select various
modes of operation for 10/100BaseT Ethernet, PMC/SBC mode, and P2 I/O mode.

MVME55006E Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800A37J)
1.7.2.1Ethernet
Four 3-pin planar headers (J6, J7, J100, J101) and four 2-pin planar headers (J34, J97, J98, J99)
are for 10/100/BaseT Ethernet 2 selection.
Ethernet 1 is the Gigabit Ethernet port and is front panel only.
For J6, J100, J7 and J101, install jumpers across pins 2-3 on all four headers for rear P2 Ethernet.
For front-panel Ethernet, install jumpers across pins 1-2 on all four headers.
If the rear P2 Ethernet is selected by jumpers J6, J7, J100, and J101, the Ethernet signals also
connect to PMC 1 user I/O connector J14. If a PMC card is plugged into PMC slot 1, there may be
a conflict between the I/O from the PMC card and the rear Ethernet signals. This conflict does not
occur with the IPMC761 or IPMC712 modules.
For J34, J97, J98 and J99, no jumpers are installed for front-panel Ethernet. For rear P2 Ethernet,
install jumpers across pins 1-2 on all four headers when in SBC/IPMC761 mode.
Hardware Preparation and Installation
1.7.2.2PMC/SBC Mode Selection
The MVME5500 is set at the factory for PMC mode. The SBC/IPMC761 mode should only be
selected when using the IPMC761 module in conjunction with the MVME761 transition
module. The PMC mode should be selected when using PMC modules with specific user I/O in
conjunction with the corresponding transition module. PMC mode should also be selected
when using PrPMC modules.
MVME55006E Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800A37J)
27
Hardware Preparation and Installation
Two 3-pin planar headers (J28, J32) control the supply of +/- 12 volts to the P2 connector; one
or both of these voltages are required by the MVME712 or MVME761 module when operating
in SBC mode. For PMC mode, jumpers are installed across pins 1-2 on both headers. For
SBC/IPMC761 mode, install jumpers across pins 2-3 on both headers. For SBC/IPMC712 mode,
install a jumper across pins 2-3 for J32 and install a jumper across pins 1-2 for J28.
Product Damage
When J28 is configured for SBC/IPMC mode, –12V is supplied to P2 pin A30. If there is an
incompatible board plugged into this P2 slot, damage may occur.
When J32 is configured for SBC/IPMC mode, +12V is supplied to P2 pin C7. If there is an
incompatible board plugged into this P2 slot, damage may occur.
1.7.2.3P2 I/O Selection
Nine 3-pin planar headers (J102 –J110) are for P2 I/O selection. Jumpers are installed across
pins 1-2 on all nine headers when in PMC mode. Install jumpers across pins 2-3 on all nine
headers when in SBC/IPMC761 or SBC/IPMC712 mode to connect the extended SCSI signals to
P2.
