Mainframe
Description
The HP E1421B mainframe is designed in full compliance with the VXIbus
specifications (Rev. 1.4) and VMEbus system specification s (Rev. C.1).
The mainframe contains 6 slots for plug-in modules and can be rack
mounted in either the forward or reverse position. Features of the HP
E1421B mainframe include:
• Improved pow er supply reliabil ity.
• Solid state automatic bus grant sens ing to bypass empty slo ts.
• Variable speed fan cooling.
• Easy replacement of major components - most can be replaced from
the rear of the mainframe, even while the mainframe is rack mounted.
• Seven standard VXIbus power supply voltages - all overvoltage,
overcurrent, and temperature protected.
• Maximum usable power (total power supply output power before
thermal protection shutdown ): 450 W at 55°C.
Options Options available for the E1421B mainframe include:
• Opt. #W01 - Warranty conversion to 1-year on-site
• Opt. #500 - Module installation using standard address settings
• Opt. #918 - Install backplane connector shields

The HP E1421B mainframe includes a power supply whi ch automati call y
adjusts for standa rd nomi nal line vol tages of 100/1 20 VAC and 22 0/24 0
VAC, and nominal power line frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz. The power
supply has a power factor corrected input section and thus can be powered
from any nominal line in put ov er the range of 10 0 VAC to 240 VAC. The
power supply can also be powered from a 400 Hz AC line frequency or DC
power line voltages. Refer to Appendix A - Specifications for complete
input power specifications.
