Safety Summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual could result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.

The safety precautions listed below represent warnings of certain dangers of which Motorola is aware. You, as the user of the product, should follow these warnings and all other safety precautions necessary for the safe operation of the equipment in your operating environment.

Ground the Instrument.

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an electrical ground. If the equipment is supplied with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power cable must be plugged into an approved three-contact electrical outlet, with the grounding wire (green/yellow) reliably connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards and local electrical regulatory codes.

Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.

Do not operate the equipment in any explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an explosion and cause injury or damage.

Keep Away From Live Circuits Inside the Equipment.

Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other qualified service personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component replacement or any internal adjustment. Service personnel should not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, such personnel should always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching components.

Use Caution When Exposing or Handling a CRT.

Breakage of a Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments (implosion). To prevent CRT implosion, do not handle the CRT and avoid rough handling or jarring of the equipment. Handling of a CRT should be done only by qualified service personnel using approved safety mask and gloves.

Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify Equipment.

Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment. Contact your local Motorola representative for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are maintained.

Overview and Equipment Requirements

The MVME5100 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 MVME5100 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 Transiton Module, or the IPMC761 I/O PMC and the MVME761 Transition Module. The SBC mode is backwards compatible with the MVME761 transition card and the P2 adapter card (excluding PMC I/O routing) used on the MVME2600/2700 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 MVME2300/MVME2400 and is accomplished by simply configuring the on-board jumpers.

Hardware Preparation and Installation

The following equipment list is appropriate for use in an MVME5100 system:

PMCspan PCI expansion mezzanine module (mates with MVME5100)

Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Mezzanine Cards (PMCs) (installed on an MVME5100 board)

RAM500 memory mezzanine modules (installed on an MVME5100 board)

VME system enclosure

System console terminal

Disk drives (and/or other I/O) and controllers

Operating system (and/or application software)

Unpacking Instructions

Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage these circuits.

Caution

Note If the shipping carton(s) is/are damaged upon receipt, request that the carrier's agent be present during the unpacking and inspection of the equipment.

Use ESD

Wrist Strap

Motorola 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 on a grounded, static-free, and adequately

protected working surface. Do not slide the component over any surface. In the case of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), place the board with the component side facing up.

If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by wearing an antistatic wrist strap (available locally) that is attached to an active electrical ground.

Note A system chassis may not be a suitable grounding source if it is unplugged.

Preparation

This section includes subsections on hardware configuration that may need to be performed immediately before and after board installation. It includes a brief reminder on setting bits in control registers, setting jumpers for the appropriate configuration, and other VME data considerations.

Hardware Configuration

To produce the desired board configuration and to ensure proper operation of the MVME5100, it may be necessary to perform certain modifications before and after installation. The following paragraphs discuss the preparation of the MVME5100 hardware components prior to installing them into a chassis and connecting them.

The MVME5100 provides software control over most of its options by setting bits in control registers. After installing it in a system, you can modify its configuration. For additional information on the board’s control registers, refer to the MVME5100 Single Board Computer Programmer's Reference Guide listed in Appendix C, Related Documentation.

Hardware Preparation and Installation

It is important to note that some options are not software-programmable. These specific options are controlled through manual installation or removal of jumpers, and in some cases, the addition of other interface modules on the MVME5100. The following table lists the manually configured jumpers on the MVME5100, and their default settings.

If you are resetting the board jumpers from their default settings, it is important to verify that all settings are reset properly. For example, the SBC mode requires setting jumpers 4, 10 and 17 for rear Ethernet functions, but it also requires resetting jumpers J6 and J20.

Neglecting to reset J6 and J20 could damage or destroy subsequent PMCs or PrPMCs installed on the base board at power-up.

Jumper Settings

Prior to performing the installation instructions, you must ensure that the jumpers are set properly for your particular configuration. For example, if you are using an IPMC761/MVME761 or IPMC712/MVME712 combination in conjunction with the MVME5100, you must reset the jumpers for the SBC mode (jumpers J4, J6, J10, J17 and J20). These are factory configured for the PMC mode. Verify all settings according to the previous table and follow the instructions below if applicable.

PMC/SBC (761/IPMC) Mode Selection

There are five headers associated with the selection of the PMC or SBC mode: J4, J6 J10, J17 and J20. Three of these headers are responsible for secondary Ethernet I/O (J4, J10 and J17) to either the front panel (PMC mode), or to the P2 connector via J4 (SBC mode). The other two headers (J6 and J20) ensure proper routing of +/- 12V signal routing. The MVME5100 is set at the factory for front panel I/O: PMC mode (see Table 1-1). The SBC mode should only be selected when using one of the IPMC7xx modules in conjunction with the corresponding MVME7xx transition module.

Installation Considerations

The MVME5100 draws power from the VMEbus backplane connectors P1 and P2. Connector P2 is also used for the upper 16 bits of data in 32-bit transfers, and for the upper 8 address lines in extended addressing mode. The MVME5100 will not function properly without its main board connected to VMEbus backplane connectors P1 and P2.

Whether the MVME5100 operates as a VMEbus master or as a VMEbus slave, it is configured for 32 bits of address and 32 bits of data (A32/D32). However, it handles A16 or A24 devices in the appropriate address ranges. D8 and/or D16 devices in the system must be handled by the processor software.

If the MVME5100 tries to access off-board resources in a nonexistent location and if the system does not have a global bus time-out, the MVME5100 waits indefinately for the VMEbus cycle to complete. This will cause the system to lock up. There is only one situation in which the system might lack this global bus time-out; that is when the MVME5100 is not the system controller and there is no global bus time-out elsewhere in the system.

Note Software can also disable the bus timer by setting the appropriate bits in the Universe II VMEbus interface.

Multiple MVME5100 boards may be installed in a single VME chassis; however, each must have a unique VMEbus address. Other MPUs on the VMEbus can interrupt, disable, communicate with, and determine the operational status of the processor(s).

PMC Modules

Warning

Caution

PMC modules mount on top of the MVME5100. Perform the following steps to install a PMC module on your MVME5100.

Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.

Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage to module components. Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry, static discharge can damage these circuits.

Note This procedure assumes that you have read the user’s manual that came with your PMCs.

1.Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD strap to an electrical ground. Note that the system chassis may not be grounded if it is unplugged. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.

2.Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power off and remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system. Remove chassis or system cover(s) as necessary for access to the VME modules.

3.If the MVME5100 has already been installed in a VMEbus card slot, carefully remove it as shown in Figure 1-2 and place it with connectors P1and P2 facing you.

4.Remove the filler plate(s) from the front panel of the MVME5100.

5.Align the PMC module’s mating connectors to the MVME5100’s mating connectors and press firmly into place.

6.Insert the appropriate number of Phillips screws (typically 4) from the bottom of the MVME5100 into the standoffs on the PMC module and tighten the screws (refer to Figure 1-3).
