Warning!
The first index (PCB layout 00) of VMOD-2 was designed for improved noise immunity (via multi-layer shielding) and as such have insufficient clearance around the piggybacks I/O pins and the 50-way external interface connectors pins to ensure the 2.5kV breakdown isolation specified by certain piggybacks. Use index 01 or higher for such applications, or take additional measures to be taken to ensure syste m/user safety.

Product Overview
1. Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
VMOD-2 is a "User Configurable" Industrial I/O module with the ability to fit any two (identical or different) standard sized VMOD piggybacks. Each fitted piggyback shares half of the front panel's 50-way connector allowing a flat-ribbon cable to be easily routed to either one or two end devices. The VMOD-2 may not only be used with all existing (VMOD) piggybacks, but will also accept the future generation of enhanced piggybacks, which may use the additional sig­nal lines only provided on the VMOD-2.
Upgrade paths/Compatibility. The original VMOD is no longer available and if ordered will automatically be replaced with the new VMOD-2. The VMOD-2 can be used as a direct replacement for any application using an older style VMOD. Full electro-mechanical compati­bility (and acceptance of the existing piggyback int erfaces) is guaranteed.
The VMOD-2 may be used as a direct replacement for an y existing VMOD and will accept the fitted piggybacks from that existing VMOD without any modification. (See also special note below)
A VMOD may be used in place of the new VMOD-2 with the loss of some new features, and then only with piggybacks developed up to the end of 1990. Any enhanced piggybacks which need additional signals from the VMOD-2 will not work on the old VMOD. To identify which piggybacks are only suit able f or use on the VMOD-2 loo k for a f our digit o rder number suc h as the PB-BIT has. i.e. 5230-11. Any and all piggybacks with three digit numbers 523-xx, will function with both VMOD and VMOD-2 modules alike.

Special Note! Caution!
VMOD-2 boards with an index 00 offe r increased inter-board shielding by using tight-routed ground and V cc planes in their multi-layer layout. This will compromise the 2.5 kV breakdow n isolation offered by many VMOD­piggybacks. If the 2.5 kV fault isolation is important for the application,

1.4 Hazards
The VMOD-2 can be fitted with one or two piggybacks carrying voltages classed as danger­ous (i.e. over 50V dc). These are usually powered by external devices and therefore are not powered subject to the status of the VMEbus systems power switch. This can result in a VMOD/VMOD-2 being removed from a powered-down rack with an external device still con­nected and presenting its voltage to the solder-side of both the VMOD/VMOD-2 and the back of the respective piggyback. A typical example is the PB-REL an eight relay SPST switching module, which can in certain circumstances present an unsuspecting user with up to 175V dc when pulling out (or installing) a VMOD-2 with the external powered interface leads con­nected. (For continued fault isolation to 2. 5 kV use a VMOD-2 of index 01 or higher).

Caution!
When using Piggybacks w ith external interfaces or supplies carrying Volt­ages higher than 50V dc ensure that the solder pins on the rear side of the PB-xxx and the VMOD to which it fits, are not acc essible (cannot be accidently touched) during use. These pins can be under power all the time the external interfaces are connected, when powered,
even when VMOD-2/VMEbus is no t powered!

The VMOD-2 is a simple low-cost product designed for maximum flexibility while keeping the single-height, single-slot modular concept of the PepCard. To ensure user/system security against fault conditions is maintained with and when using opto-isolated piggybacks, the VMOD-2 has a large area of unpopulated board space under the front half of both piggyback locations. This unused area is part of the VMOD-2's Galvanic isolation (see special note on page 1-1) and no additional wiring should be routed to/from component s in the rear-most area of the VMOD-2 and the component groups (connectors) at the front of the VMOD-2. A "local­Reset" logic line is however routed to the three-p in j umper near the 50- pin fr ont pane l conne c­tor, but this follows distancing and opto-isolation rules to ensure that the galvanic capability of the opto-isolated piggybacks is not compromised.
The VMOD-2 is shown above with both the 50-way front panel connector and the 50-way on­board header. It can only be ordered with one or the other. Further the VMOD-2 is shown with the two piggyback locations occupied, which is how the majority of users employ their VMOD's, but is delivered without any piggybacks, these items being added to the above illus­tration to help see where the connectors and piggybacks are to be found /used.
Each of the two piggybacks are fitted so their 26-way connector pins fit into the correspondi ng 26-way socket-holes provided for each piggyback location. The rear connectors pins will then fit into the correct rows of the 30/45-way sockets regardless of whether the piggyback has a 30-pin or 15-pin connector.
All the jumpers, with the exception of B20 (local reset), are to be found at the back end of the VMOD-2 in several small groups. Jumper B01 is an "L" shaped group of three-pins nearest the top edge of the board, and the rest are consecutively numbered progressing down the VMOD-2 until the last (Jumper B19) is reached nearest the bottom of the board. The function

VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
of these jumpers, and a detailed illustration of their locations and pin-numbering, are to be found in chapter 3 of this manual.
The remaining components on this simple low-cost industrial base board are in CMOS SMD logic and GALs to ensure reduced power consumption/thermal generation over it's predeces­sor.
Product Overview
1.7 Advantages and Features of the VMOD-2 PepCard
The VMOD-2 is an improved version of the original VMOD, which was designed with a major objective in mind: to provide a low cost and easy to implement user configurable I/O interface for industrial interface applications and/or space-savings in many different customer applica­tions.
This result is a maximized choice of design flexibility. The VMOD-2 provides a very cost­effective solution, with quick and easy implementat ion, and fu ll compatibil ity with the ex tensive range of existing VMOD-piggybacks and the ability to accept the planed "enhanced" piggy­backs of the second generation.
With the flexibility offered by the VMOD-2 and the exi sting range of indust rial I/O modules, you are able to configure many complex and usually very intense interfaces, in a very quick and compact way. This may be especially important when needing to add interfaces to an already existing system, or where when using other products several additional slots or a larger rack/ sub-frames or additional power supplies/cooling, were needed/used with their financial over­head.
Now with the VMOD-2 you may replace several of these existing cards, or external interface boxes, with a single VMOD-2, fitted with two piggybacks containing the desired interfaces, and also offering the added feature of a local res et input.
1.7.1Features of the VMOD-2 Module
Features of the VMOD-2 are:
* Widest possible range of base address selection to allow up to thirty-two VMOD-2's to
be used in any one system. (Prev iou sly onl y eight origi nal VMOD's coul d be fi tt ed due to
their fixed base addresses). * Each piggyback location now supports 11 address lines. (A1...A11 to each piggyback). * Each piggyback location now has 8/16-bit Databus lines. (D0..D15 to each piggyback). * Galvanic Isolation between each interface and to the VMOD-2's VMEbus circuitry
depending upon the piggybacks fitted. * External Reset facility, can be used to cause "local-reset" of the VMOD-2's piggybacks. * Two Individually configurable piggyback locations, with board ID byte for remote (soft-
ware) configuration identity checking. * Compact size, VMOD-2 plus two piggybacks containing your chosen interface circuitry,
are all contained within standard single-height, single-slot PepCard dimensions. Choice
of interface connector options, so where needed the connection method can be kept
internal, i.e. via a 50-pin on-board connector. * Easy maintenance (i.e. swap-and-test, reduce service down-time)

VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
Hardware Features:
* Full electro/mechanical compatibility with the existing VMOD piggybacks and with the
very latest VMOD-2 enhanced piggybacks. * All necessary VMEbus lines are made available to each of the piggybacks. * 2.5 kV Galvanic VME to external isolation (not on index 00 boards), and PB to PB inter-
faces supporting opto-isolated piggybacks and the opto-isolated external "local" reset
input circuits. * Extended temperature ver sions of bot h the VMOD-2 and many of the currentl y availab le

Functional Description
2. Functional Description
The VMOD-2 is a very simple and compact Modular Base-board accepting any two VMOD­Piggyback sub-modules for user-configurable I/O in any VMEbus system. It is better suited for use in conjunction with other VMOD-2's in a VMEbus system than the original VMOD, which only had eight different ba se addresses. This cha pter will descr ibe the " physic al" in ter faces of the VMOD-2, and the function of the external "local" reset interfaces.
Although this manual contains references to some VMOD piggybacks, you are asked to refer to the piggyback's own user manuals for comprehensive and up to date information regarding the individual piggyback products.
The VMOD-2 is designed to function as a slave module (any slot other than slot 1) in any 3U or 6U VMEbus system. in 6U (double-height) systems it is fitted in the upper backplane con­nector (P1, J1).
2.1 VMOD-2 Address Map
The VMOD-2 is addressed by setting appropriate jumpers for each selectable Address-line and/or the setting of an address modifier jumper (B03) to specify the desired addressing mode. A further jumper B16 can be set to provide increased address block widths when using the VMOD-2 with newer piggybacks using the additional address lines A7...A11. The first pig­gyback (upper location) is always available at the base address and the second piggyback (lower location) is available at base address plus either offset $80/$81 or $1000/$1001, sub­ject to selected address block widths.
All existing "VMOD" (523-xx) piggybacks use the address l ines A1.. .A6. Any new 5230-xx pig­gybacks (VMOD-2 only types) use not only the address lines A1...A6, but als o A7...A11 which are provided on the VMOD-2 only.
Remember!
Any existing and/or new piggybacks with a "523-" order number, can be used on either an original VMOD or a VMOD-2, and when used on a VMOD-2 may be used in either 256 Byte or 8 KB yte address block widths. Any new piggybacks with a "5230-" order number (only suitable for VMOD-2 use) with the address block width of 8 KBytes. A VMOD-2 can have a mix of old and new piggybacks fitted provided the address block width is set for the increased 8 K Byte addressing mode, i.e. jumper B16 must be set.
Via the address offsets, the user can address specific piggyback devices (i.e. SCCs) by writ­ing to the selected VMOD-2's base address plus an offset of the appropriate value (see spe­cific piggyback user's manual).
Example of offsets where two PB-RELs are fitted to VMOD-2.

A jumper set results in the related address line being assigned a logical low (0) function.
2.1.1Selection of Address Block Widths
As mentioned in the preceding section, an important aspect regarding the use of the VMOD-2 is the option of block size selection, which must be taken into consideration when using the VMOD-2 in certain configurations and/or applications.
When using the VMOD-2 to replace an existing VMOD (as a one-to-one direct replacement), the VMOD-2 should be set to the narrower address range of 256 Bytes by opening the jumper B16. This ensures that the VMOD-2 presents an address width of only 256 Bytes identical to the old VMOD, and uses offsets of $01 and $80 for the two piggyback locations.
No new "5230-xx" piggybacks should be added to the VMOD-2 when used as a replacement for an older VMOD since when jumper B16 is open the enhanced (5230-xx) piggybacks will not have the use of additional address lines A7...A11 and will not therefore function correctly. Where using existing piggybacks and a VMOD-2 to substitute an older style VMOD, we rec-

ommend the jumper B16 is removed, which will ensure that your software will address both piggybacks correctly without any need of modification.

Special note!
The user's manuals for various piggybacks currently in existence, will continue to give details of their address offsets based on the 256 Byte address block spacing as described above. You can of course use the new 8 KByte spacing with all "523-xx" piggybacks, by simply increasing the offset from $80/$81 to $1000/$1001 for p iggyback location B .
A1.....A11 A1....A6
2.1.2Address Range of the VMOD-2
Using the address widths given before, you are able to select from either thirty-two 256 Byte wide addresses, or from eight 8 KByte wide addresses,. i.e. your system can have 32 or eight VMOD-2s fitted subject to your address configurations. The address selection is acheived by decoding the state of five jumpers, B2, B12, B13, B14 a nd B15. Where a jumper Set returns a logical 0 for the respective address line and a jumper Open returns a logical 1 for the respec­tive address line.
A full listing with all address setting permutations is given in section 3.1.6.
2.2 VMEbus Interrupts
2.2.1Interrupt Generation on the VMOD-2
Each piggyback on the VMOD-2 is able to request/generate interrupts between levels 1 to 7. However the VMOD-2 will only be set for one level of interrupt for use on the VMEbus.
For each request from pigg ybacks , I NT0* for pi ggyback lo cati on "A " and I NT1* f or " B", t here is an acknowledge signal, INTA0* and INTA1* respectively. If two simultaneous interrupts are detected, the one which is first will disable any handling of the other until its been dealt with itself.
2.2.2Interrupt Level Setting
As mentioned above the user can set his VMOD-2 to use any IRQ level from 1 to 7 as appro­priate to his VMEbus systems application. The selection of these levels is subject to the set-

ting of three jumpers B17, B18 and B19, where when all three are set the IRQ from the VMOD-2 is disabled. See section 3.1 (jumper configuration) for detailed settings.
Functional Description
2.2.3Interrupt Vector Options
The user can select between several different ways to use his VMOD-2's Interrupt Vectors as the VMOD-2 is provided with a jumper (B1) with three different possibilities. See section 3.1 (jumper configuration) for detailed settings.
1). Vector can be generated by either or both piggybacks, if these pig gybacks are intel ligent enough. Most are.
2). Vector can be generated by the VMOD-2, using preset jumper coding, where non-intelli ­gent piggybacks are being fitted. In thi s mode a furt her opt ion to as sig n both piggyb acks the same vector is provided by the setting of a three-pin jumper B11.
3). Vector can be generated by the lower piggyback ("B") and derived from jumper settings on the VMOD-2 for a non-intelligent pi ggyba ck fitted into the up per pi ggyba ck ("A") loc a­tion.
The features of some piggybacks you may wish to use on your VMOD-2 are:

2.2.4Interrupt Vector Setting
As described before, the user can set his VMOD-2's Interrupt Vectors as appropriate to his VMOD-2/Piggyback configurations needs. The selection of these vectors is subject to the binary code of bits D0.. .D7 as derived by the setting of jumpers B11 to B4 respective ly. B11 is a three-pin type and can provide an identical or different vector for the two piggybacks. Three examples are given below where jumper B1 must be set to 1-2 to use these vectors.

When jumper B11 is set to 1-2 the vector of both piggyback locations "A" and "B" will be the same (so D0 = 0).
When jumper B11 is open the vector of both piggyback locations "A" and "B" will also be the same (but D0 = 1).

2.2.5Interrupt Vector Setting Examples
The following examples are provided to help VMOD-2 users to quickly understand when and how to set his VMOD-2's Interrupt Vectors as appropriate to his VMOD-2/Piggyback configu­rations needs.
Table 2-5: Interrupt Vector Configuration Examples
1). Two "intelligent" pi ggyback s (both able to generate inter­rupt vectors) are fitted to the VMOD-2 to use their own gen­erated vecto rs.
2). Two "Dumb" piggybacks (both unable to gener ate interrupt vectors) are fitted to the VMOD-2 and ne ed VMOD-2's set vectors.
3). One "intelligent" and one "Dumb" piggyb ack are to be fitted to the VMOD-2 and the user wants th e intell igent pi g­gyback to use it's on-board "Intelligent" vector generation in combination with "Dumb" jumper coding.
Use Piggy­back Gener­ated Vectors
Use VMOD-2 Jumper set Vectors
Use the "Dumb" pig­gyback in upper loca­tion, and fit the "intelli­gent" one in lower loca­tion.
2.3 External "Local" Reset Input
Jumper B1 is left open.
B1 is to be set to 1-2.
B1 is to be set to brid ge pins 1-3.
Jumpers B4...B11 ar e not decoded and can be left in any set­ting.
Jumpers B4...B11 are set for appropriate byte coding.
Jumpers B4...B11 are set for desired vector code to be assigned when piggyback "A" makes an IRQ.
A new feature of the VMOD-2 is the ability to cause a "local" reset to the on-board pi ggybacks from two (previously unused) pins on the front panel connector. These pins accept external voltages between +5V min. and +48V max, across each VMOD-2.
Set jumper B20 to 1-2 if an external reset facility is n ot required.
The principals of the local reset input circuit are, that an opto-coupler is monitored for an external presence of current i n through pin 26 and out to ground via pin 25 of the 50-way con­nector. If the flow of current is interrupted at any time, e.g. by disconnection of connectors, pressing a stop button, etc., the "local" reset is act ivated.
This facility may be enabled by setting the three- pin B20 jumper (li nking jumper pins 1-3). Oth­erwise the VMOD-2 is delivered with this jumper set to 1-2, which is particularly important when using the VMOD-2 to replace an existing VMOD and not wanting to modify cables.

Page 2 - 7Man. ID 03139, Rev. Index 0200
VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
Functional Description
The External Reset is limited to the VMOD-2 and it's piggybacks, and will not reset the VME­bus unless your application software demands it to. I.e. via the polling of an output register to detect a "reset" state.
Special note!
There can be occasions when spurious interrupts are caused with the use of the "local" reset facility.
This can happen when a VMOD-2 IR Q is cleared by the local re set before the VMEbus system h as had a chance to clear the interrupt itself.
The two-pins (25 and 26) of the 50-way front panel connector, can be used to detect the fol­lowing external events;

2.4 ID Byte
An extremely important feature of the VMOD-2 is the ability to "ask it" per software what piggy­backs are on board. Remembering that once configured and fitted one VMOD-2 is indistin­guishable from others configured differently. Via this built-in identification feature you can interrogate the VMOD-2 to return an ID for each of the fitted piggybacks, and if this is inte­grated into your application software, may be used to check that any given tasks is valid for the fitted piggyback before execution.
The VMOD-2 can be tested per software in order to determine what type of piggybacks is fit­ted. If jumper B16 is not set it is offset $7F (location A) and offset $FF (location B), with jumper B16 set it is $107F (location A) and $10FF (location B). Where our "example" VMOD­2 fitted with two PB-RELs, would return a "$FC" Byte for both locations.

2.5 VMOD/VMOD-2 Connector Locations and Pin-outs
This section serves to give an overview of the piggyback interface connectors at both the VMOD-2's VMEbus end and the VMOD-2's (piggyback's) external I/O. Figure 2.4 shows an example configuration where two piggybacks are to be fitted to your VMOD-2, the first fits in the upper position (Position A), and the second, is fitted in the lower (B) position. This section commences with the two header type connectors (BU1a/BU1b and BU0a/BU0b) of the VMOD-2 which directly interface to the selected piggyback's ST1 and (where 3-row/45-pin interfaces are used) ST0 pin rows.
The lower case letters in the socket numbers refer to which piggyback location the connector is used for, i.e. BU1a is socket 1 for piggyback location A. An illustration giving details of all the VMOD-2's connectors is given below.

VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
Caution!
When using the VMOD/VMOD-2 with any piggyback, take care to note that the terms ST1 and ST 2 used in the piggybacks user's manual and circuit diagrams, refer to the connectors of the Piggyback and equate to their Plug 1 and Plu g 2 (ST from the German word "Stecker") these fit to BU1a and BU2a or BU1b and BU2b (BU = "Buchse" = Socket) on the VMOD/VMOD-2.
This is very important as the VMO D/VMOD-2 also have Plugs called ST1 (VMEbus connector) and ST2 (50-way header) which have no direct rela­tionship to those of the piggybacks circuit diagrams as attached to the piggyback user's m anual.
Look for the front connector overview in each VMOD-piggybacks user's manual, before making any interfa ce leads/connections, a nd use with due caution, especially where high external voltages or unprotected external supplies are to be co nnected.

The front two-rows of the three-row 30/45-pin sockets (BU1 and/or BU0) are used by all VMOD/VMOD-2 piggybacks. Some piggyback's, having three-row headers, also use the third row, BU0a or BU0b. The use of the third row does not however define a piggyback as being only suitable for use on the VMOD-2, as the original VMOD also had these third rows, and several existing VMOD-piggybacks use sig­nals on the third row which are found on both the VMOD and the VMOD-2. Previ­ously unused pins in the third row (BU0) are now fully utilized by the VMOD-2 and

2.5.2VMOD-2 External Interface Connectors BU2a and BU2b
The twenty-six pin double row sockets are totally isolated from the remaining circuits of the VMOD-2, and only connect the input/output side of the respective piggybacks 26-pin I/O header directly to the upper or lower half of the 50-way VMOD-2 front panel connector.
The actual pins used are subject to the design of the piggyback, but the pin interconnections between the two BU2 connectors and the 50-way front panel connector will always be the same. To determine what pin -s your si gnals wi ll a ppear on when using any re ady made pigg y­back, please see the piggyback's user manual which will give precise details of the external interfaces for use in both l ocations. If fault-tracing or designing your own piggybacks, the rela­tionship of the respective piggyback locations (inputs/outputs) to the external connector is as given in the table below.

Caution!
The term "ST2" on th e schematics at the back of any pigg yback manuals, refer only to the ST-2 conn ector of the actual pigg yback (which plugs into the above BU2) not to the VM OD-2's ST2. Ta ke care not to confuse these when making connections to your VMOD-2 front pane l.
Remember also that the pin-outs change when swapping the previously fitted piggybacks around or replacing them with different types. This is also true when mov ing several differently configure d VMOD-2's around in your VMEbus system, where the external appearance of one VMOD-2 is indistinguishable from any other.
Please refer to resp ective piggy backs use r's manu al for the ex act p in-outs which are presented to the external equipment (the VMOD's 50-way header) when such a p iggyback is fitted.

2.5.3Pin Outs of the VMOD's Front Panel Connector with two VMOD-2s
The respective half of the VMOD-2's front panel 50-way connector (pins 1...24 for lower posi-
tion and pins 27.....50 for upper) assume the relationship of the piggybacks (as fitted to
VMOD-2) signals as routed from their ST2 (via the BU2a or BU2b) through connections as shown in table 2.5.2 on previous page.
The connector's pins 25 and 26 a re u sed as an exter nal res et (or emergency s top loop ) on the VMOD-2, and were left "not used" on the original VMOD.
An option to have the VMOD-2 with no front panel connector, but rather a 50-way header behind a blank front panel will provide an identical pin-out to the standard 50-way front panel connector, and is provided for applications where the flat band cabl e is to be routed internally, or where an alternative front panel is to be fitted and used. Take care to note that the 50-way header is unpolarized, and can be accidently missconnected if the flat-ribbon connector is turned upside-down.

3.2 Fitting Piggybacks
Detailed descriptions on how to fit and use each piggyback is given in their respective user's manuals.
After fitting, please look under the fitted piggyback to ensure that every pin of it's front 26-pin connector is in a socket hole. If any holes are not occupied or any pins are left without a hole, there is a strong possibility that the piggyback is the wrong-way round and/or displaced in pin number/height.
For many piggybacks the last 15-pin row of 30/45-pin socket holes (connector nearest the VMEbus interface end of VMOD-2) will not be used. It is easier to see that all is well by check­ing the 26-pin interface at the front end first.
Pin-outs of the front panel 50-way connector will change according to the piggybacks fitted and if they are used in the upper or lower locations. Again ple a se refer to the individual piggy­back's user's manuals before making any interface cables.

Whenever the 8 KByte option is selected (i.e. jumper B16 is set) four consecutive AB#s are occupied. These are also given to ensure that no address contention will occur when using several VMOD-2's (and/or other boards) in your VMEbus system.

3. Configuration
This section describes how to instal the VMOD-2's piggybacks, set the necessary jumpers, and in general prepare the VMOD-2 for system operation. Before you proceed with this sec­tion, please refer to the chosen piggybacks user's manuals, to see what restricti ons or special needs are to be taken into account, regarding their use with the VMOD/ VMOD-2 base mod­ule.
3.1 Jumper locations and functions
The VMOD-2 possesses some twenty jumper selectable options, such as choice of physical Address Block Size, Base Address, Address Modifiers, etc. These may be via simple "set" or "open" two-pin jumpers, or through bridging two-pins of a three-pin jumper.
Figure 3-1 gives the VMOD-2's physical jumper locations, types and of especial importance for the three-pin types the locations of the pin numbers which are used as setting references throughout this chapter. Thereafter the jumpers are described individually in function order.

4. Installation
This section describes how to install the VMOD-2 fitted with one or two piggybacks for use in your VMEbus system. Before you proceed with this section please make sure that you have configured all of the necessary VMOD-2 jumpers as described in the preceding section.
4.1 VMEbus Connection
Caution!
Before installing or removing any VMEbus boards always turn off the power to the bus and an y external periphera ls.
Inserting or removing VMOD-2 mo dules while power is on could result in damage to the VME module o r peripherals interface.
Please refer to the Piggyback/-s user's manual/-s for details on installing/removing VMOD to/ from your VMEbus system.
4.2 Installing the VMOD-2
The VMOD-2 may be plugged into any free VMEbus slot position (other than slot 1) in your VMEbus system.
Note: Check Piggybac ks Fitting
(1/.) The connecto r at one end of th e piggyb ack has less pin s than th at at the other end.
(2/.) The piggyback ST2 ha s two-rows which are to fit the front two -rows of the VMOD-2 26-pin, two-row int erface socket BU 2. Take care to ensu re the piggyback is in its co rrect position/orienta tion.
In addition to the mechanical retention/support provided by the two piggyback interface con­nectors, the piggyback may (by customers with high vibration applications) be held to the motherboard by screws and stand off pillar s, sin ce at t he front end of the pigg yback and at the corresponding location on the VMOD-2, two holes per piggyback location, are provided for this purpose.
4.3 Chronological Installation Procedure (VMOD-2)
1/. Inspect the 96 way VMEbus Interface Connector and front panel header (50-way con-
nector) for clean straight pins.
2/. Check the fitted piggybacks and desired VMOD-2 jumper settings suit your intended
application. i.e. jumper B16 "Set" (for 8 KByte block width) when using any 5230-xx pig­gybacks.
12/15/97
Page 4 - 2Man. ID 03139, Rev. Index 0200
VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
3/. Check the desired external interface leads, lengths and connector orientations suit your
intended application and match the connector types required for your targeted external devices.
4/. Ensure all power is off, including that to all other devices connected to the VMEbus sys-
tem.
5/. Choose the desired slot for your VMOD-2 with it's chosen piggyback(s) , and if neces-
sary reposition the other modules. For this chosen slot you must remove the IACK*
daisy chain jumper. (See figure 4.3 on next page). 6/. Place the PCB into the card guides for the desired slot. 7/. Push the module into it's position carefully, checking that the flat ribbon cable (if con-
nected to optional internal 50-way header) does not become snared or damaged. Once
the insertion force of the 96 way VMEbus connector has been overcome, the fr ont pan el
securing screws can be tightened up. 8/. To ensure reduced risk of shock hazard when using higher voltage piggybacks, fit cov-
ers to unused slots either side of the slot into which the VMOD-2 with such piggybacks
is to be fitted.
Installation
9/. Connect the flat ribbon interface cables to your chosen external devices. 10/. Restore power only when you are satisfied that all the modules are correctly electrically
and mechanically fitted. Removing the VMOD-2 (or any other PepCard) is virtually the reverse procedure, where it is
especially important to remember when removing any modules like the VMOD-2, with the option for externall y powe red devi ces, et c. to po wer d own eac h of t hese external source s and/ or disconnect the external connector, otherwise you may risk short-circuiting the external devices power supply outputs, with risk of damage to the interface leads, the interface on the piggyback and even the circuit traces on the VMOD module itself.

4.4 Connecting the External Devices
If you are using any external leads which carry any voltag e, do not plug the ext ern al leads i nto the front panel connector until after the VMOD-2/Piggyback(s) assembly has been installed in to the rack. The reasons are as follows;
1/. For any external voltages (either under or over 50 Vdc) a risk of electrical shorts exist if
the assembled VMOD-2 is laid onto any conductive surfaces, including anti-static work­bench mats, etc.
2/. If your external power units are not protected by fuses (in all lines) there i s a risk of lines
being accidently shorted when the modules are pushed in/or pulled out of the rack. In particular their is a chance that lines from different external equipments can be shorted together or to the VMEbus system's frame ground if the solder side of the VMOD-2's BU2a and/or BU2b pins and/or the solder side of the piggyback ST2 or ST3 pins touch the front panel of the module already fitted in the adjacent slot.
3/. If the external voltages exceed 50 Vdc, personnel are exposed to risk of elect rical shock
from solder side of the piggyback and the VMOD-2, i.e. from solder pads under the VMOD-2 50-pin connector.
We also recommend that where possible no external power be present on the external con­nector when making/breaking the connection, as this can degrade the connectors life.
12/15/97
Page 4 - 4Man. ID 03139, Rev. Index 0200
VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
The recommended maximum cable length should be limited to 5 meters (~15 feet) to ensure minimum voltage drop/risk of cables becoming damaged/trapped, etc
Caution!
Ensure that the current ratings of the connected flat-band cables are never exceeded.
Installation
4.5 Front Panel Functions
The front panel of the VMOD-2 has only the 50-pin connector on it. The odd numbered pins of this connector are on the right side when looking at the connector from the VMOD-2's front (see figure 4.5 below). The even pins are on the left si de of the connector and the lowes t num­bers for each (odd and Even) row are at the bottom ascending. Depending on where your VMOD-2 piggyback is fitted, you will need to use the lower half of this connector or the upper half.
The connector (front-panel connector onl y) is provi ded with a pol arizi ng keyw ay to ensure t hat the made up cable cannot be inserted up-side-down (therefore to the wrong piggybacks and with reversed connections) if at any time it has been disconnected. Two retainer/ejectors lock the connector into place and/or help to eject it during disconnection.
To help differentiate between cables for interfacing with differently configured VMOD/VMOD­2s we recommend a drop of colored paint be placed on the back of t he connector and ont o the front panel of the VMOD to which this cable should fit. This could be very important and save considerable time later if reconfiguring your VMEbus system. Further, in very large systems, or where lot's of VMOD/VMOD-2's are in use, two drops of paint at the top and bottom of the connector and on the ends of the retaining latches could provide an at-a-glance confirmation of both piggyback types before making connections.

The standard 3U high fascia may be replaced with a 6U (double height) front panel for use in 6U VMEbus systems. If making up your own double-height front panel, the VMOD must be so placed that it uses the upper connector of any desired VMEbus slot. Alterantly a suitable 6U fascia may be obtained fr om your local PepCard supplier, or even be specified for pre-assem­bled 6U VMOD-2 and/or piggyback configurations during the initial ordering stage.

None of the exte r­nally connected devices have correct or expected function with the VMOD-2's outputs
The external interface connector con­nects to the wrong half of the front panel connector (i.e. pins 01 to 24 instead of pi ns 2 7 to 50 f or up p er p ig gy­back position). Move piggyback to other location if this appears to be the case, and test from there before rewiri ng you r interface cabl e. a) the flat ribbon cable is fitted wrong way up into the IDC connector i.e Pin 1 is connected to wire #50, etc.

Move the piggyback for­ward to the correct location and test for correct function. If the piggyback or VMOD-2 does become damaged through misconnections of this kind, the PEP warrantee is invalidated.

Installation
An unknown problem prevents the selected piggyback(s)/VMOD­2 configuration from functioning.
If the VMOD-2 functioned before, and has been reconfigured for a new appli­cation/address/piggyback, steps 1 to 3 may help find/confirm the faulty area.
If the piggyback appears to function correctly with other VMOD-2s or in VMOD-2's other piggyback location the problem could be damaged or burnt out tracks which may not have used/ needed by the last piggyback fitted.
If the piggyback will not function with other VMODs or in VMOD's other loca­tion the problem is alm ost cer ta in ly du e to the piggyback or the application soft­ware.
1) Replace previo us known working con­figuration and try for correct fun ction of VMOD-2.
2) Put piggyback into other location on VMOD-2 or if avail­able onto another VMOD/VMOD-2 mod­ule and test for cor­rect piggyback function.
4.7 General Notes for Using the System
Having designed a fully-functioning system, the only thing that remains is to keep it in good health. The three biggest areas of risk to your system are at the following times:
Connecting peripherals, disk-drives, printers, terminals and external power sources.
Adding or changing modules, address settings and locations, etc.
Becoming complacent and no t r ef erri n g to th e man ua l s when al te rin g o r adding modules.
The way to reduce these risk is;-
to check the electrical compatibility of all devices which you intend to connect to your system, -
to ensure that they are powered from the same mains supply branch (phase) and grounded to the same reference point, -
to shut down all power before making or breaking any connections to
12/15/97
Page 4 - 8Man. ID 03139, Rev. Index 0200
VMOD-2/VMOD-2D
modules or attachments to the system, including power to the peripher­als. -
to observe sensible static protection procedures before handling any modules, piggy-backs or memory IC's.
to keep all manuals handy, near to the system at all times and refer to them when the need arises.
Some Tips are:-
PepCards are not over sensitive to static, but it is generally advisable to observe sensible procedures such as:
When configuring the module do not take it out of the original packing unless necessary, the new clear packs may be o pen ed a nd th e jumpe rs set, piggybacks added, etc. without needing to remove the card. This also prevents you inadvertently shorting any on-board batteries, etc.
When inserting modules into a system, just turn the power off, do not remove the mains lead!, as it's ground wire prevents the rack floating with dangerous static vo ltages, which could de str oy cir cui ts on the mod­ule you are trying to insert.
Touch the front panel of the module you wish to insert, or the shell of the connector you wish to connect to any part of the rack , before fitting, to discharge any static from you the carrier.
Disconnect an y leads connected to a module before undo ing it's front panel securing screws and pulling it out of the rack, put modules into the rack before connecting any front-panel connectors.
Do not just pull modules straight out of a rack, check if they have cables to unplug behind t he front panel (suc h as the VSBC-1's 40-pin parallel on-board headers) and ensure that these cables if fitted have enough play to allow the modules concerned to be removed far enough to detach these cables.
Park "pulled" jumpers onto one of the pins they would normally bridge, so they are available for quick replacement should the configuration change later.
Remember to check the mains input voltage selector switch before installing or using any PSU!
Fill out the configur ation card (in the ap pendix of this manual) with the up-to-date (latest) system configuration data , e.g . which modu le is fitte d where and what addresses they are set to, etc. and refer to this when investigating any problems or requesting any form of support from PEP or it's authorized agents.
Installation
If you wish you may copy the configurati on card, to write on the copy , keep a conf iguration hi s­tory to return to, and keep the master clean for future use. Or you may choose to enter details in pencil, to enable erasures and corrections to be easily made.
In the event of any "mystery" problems, such as those where a card sent for repair is r e turned as having "no actual defect" or another tried card has the same symptoms. It is very often the actual configuration which has led to the "apparent fault". With the many thousands of combi­nations in which these cards could be employed, our repair department would never be able

to reconstruct the configuration which gives your problem credence, just by co-incidence. Therefore if you could send a copy of this configuration card, along with the module and it's repair request form, to the place of original sale, then, in the event the card passes normal test, we will (if n e cessary) be able to set up a configuration, similar t o yours, and test for sati s­factory function, or give expert advice on system configuration problems your layout has (or may) encountered.
Sometimes these are simple things, which can be resolved without any test or repair being necessary, such as moving an address so it does not clash with that used by another card. If we save time investigating the fault, then you save time and cost involved with unnecessary testing and "back and forth" shipping and enquiri ng later.
