Only use injector handles for board insertion to avoid damage to the front panel and/or PCB. Deformation of the front panel can cause an electrical short or other board malfunction
Use the following steps to install the MVME7100ET into your computer chassis.
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD strap to an electrical ground. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.
2. Remove any filler panel that might fill that slot.
3. Install the top and bottom edge of the MVME7100ET into the guides of the chassis.
4. Ensure that the levers of the two injector/ejectors are in the outward position.
5. Slide the MVME7100ET into the chassis until resistance is felt.
6. Simultaneously move the injector/ejector levers in an inward direction.
7. Verify that the MVME7100ET is properly seated and secure it to the chassis using the two screws located adjacent to the injector/ejector levers.
8. Connect the appropriate cables to the MVME7100ET.
To remove the board from the chassis, reverse the procedure and press the red locking
tabs (IEEE handles only) to extract the board.

Make sure that TPE connectors near your working area are clearly marked as
network connectors.
Verify that the length of an electric cable connected to a TPE bushing does not
exceed 100 meters.
Make sure the TPE bushing of the system is connected only to safety extra low
voltage circuits (SELV circuits).
If in doubt, ask your system administrator.
The console settings for the MVME7100ET are:
Eight bits per character One stop bit per character Parity disabled (no parity) Baud rate of 9600 baud
Verify that hardware is installed and the power/peripheral cables connected are appropriate for your system configuration.
Replace the chassis or system cover, reconnect the chassis to the AC or DC power source, and turn the equipment power on.

3.3.1 Reset/Abort Switch

The MVME7100ET has a single push button switch to provide both the abort and reset
functions. When the switch is depressed for less than 3 seconds, an abort interrupt is generated to the MC8641D PIC. If the switch is held for more than 3 seconds, a board hard reset is generated. If the MVME7100ET is the VMEbus system controller, a VME SYSRESET is generated.

Page 73
A hardware flash bank write protect switch is provided on the MVME7100ET to enable write protection of the NOR Flash. Regardless of the state of the software flash write protect bit in the NOR Flash Control/Status register, write protection is enabled when this switch is ON. When this switch is OFF, write protection is controlled by the state of the software flash write protect bits and can only be disabled by clearing this bit in the NOR Flash Control/Status register. Note that the F_WE_HW bit reflects the state of the switch and is only software readable whereas the F_WP_SW bit supports both read and write operations.
The MVME7100ET provides a dual boot option for booting from one of two separate boot images in the boot flash bank which are referred to as boot block A and boot block B. Boot blocks A and B are each 1 MB in size and are located at the top (highest address) 2 MB of the boot flash memory space. Block A is located at the highest 1 MB block and block B is the next highest 1 MB block. A flash boot block switch is used to select between boot block A and boot block B. When the switch is OFF, the flash memory map is normal and block A is selected as shown in Figure 3. When the switch is ON, block B is mapped to the highest address as shown in Figure 4. The MAP_SELECT bit in the flash Control/Status register can disable the jumper and restore the memory map to the normal configuration with block A selected.

MOTLoad Firmware

6.1 Overview

The MOTLoad firmware package serves as a board power-up and initialization package, as well as a vehicle from which user applications can be booted. A secondary function of the MOTLoad firmware is to serve in some respects as a test suite providing individual tests for certain devices. This chapter includes a list of standard MOTLoad commands, the default VME and firmware settings that are changeable by the user, remote start, and the alternate boot procedure.
MOTLoad is controlled through an easy-to-use, UNIX-like, command line interface. The MOTLoad software package is similar to many end-user applications designed for the embedded market, such as the real time operating systems currently available.
Refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related
Documentation, for more details.

6.2 Implementation and Memory Requirements

The implementation of MOTLoad and its memory requirements are product specific. The MVME7100ET single-board computer (SBC) is offered with a range of memory (for example, DRAM or flash). Typically, the smallest amount of on-board DRAM that a SBC has is 32MB. Each supported product line has its own unique MOTLoad binary image(s). Currently the largest MOTLoad compressed image is less than 1MB in size.

6.3 MOTLoad Commands

MOTLoad supports two types of commands (applications): utilities and tests. Both types of commands are invoked from the MOTLoad command line in a similar fashion. Beyond that, MOTLoad utilities and MOTLoad tests are distinctly different.

6.3.1 Utilities

The definition of a MOTLoad utility application is very broad. Simply stated, it is considered a MOTLoad command if it is not a MOTLoad test. Typically, MOTLoad utility applications are applications that aid the user in some way (that is, they do something useful). From the perspective of MOTLoad, examples of utility applications are: configuration, data/status displays, data manipulation, help routines, data/status monitors, etc.
Operationally, MOTLoad utility applications differ from MOTLoad test applications in several ways:
MVME7100ET Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800K87G) 85
Page 86
MOTLoad Firmware
Only one utility application operates at any given time (that is, multiple utility applications cannot be executing concurrently).
Utility applications may interact with the user. Most test applications do not.

6.3.2 Tests

A MOTLoad test application determines whether or not the hardware meets a given standard. Test applications are validation tests. Validation is conformance to a specification. Most MOTLoad tests are designed to directly validate the functionality of a specific SBC subsystem or component. It is possible for a board's component to fail in the user application but pass specification conformance. These tests validate the operation of such SBC modules as: dynamic memory, external cache, NVRAM, real time clock, etc.
All MOTLoad tests are designed to validate functionality with minimum user interaction. Once launched, most MOTLoad tests operate automatically without any user interaction.
There are a few tests where the functionality being validated requires user interaction (that
is, switch tests, interactive plug-in hardware modules, etc.). Most MOTLoad test results (error-data/status-data) are logged, not printed. Test results are not preserved and therefore not available to user applications subsequent to their execution. All MOTLoad tests/commands have complete and separate descriptions (refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual for this information).
MOTLoad Firmware
All devices that are available to MOTLoad for validation/verification testing are represented by a unique device path string. Most MOTLoad tests require the operator to specify a test device at the MOTLoad command line when invoking the test.
A listing of all device path strings can be displayed through the devShow command. If an SBC device does not have a device path string, it is not supported by MOTLoad and can not be directly tested. There are a few exceptions to the device path string requirement, like testing RAM, which is not considered a true device and can be directly tested without a device path string. Refer to the devShow command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.
Most MOTLoad tests can be organized to execute as a group of related tests (a testSuite) through the use of the testSuite command. The expert operator can customize their testing by defining and creating a custom testSuite(s). The list of built-in and user-defined MOTLoad testSuites, and their test contents, can be obtained by entering testSuite -d at the MOTLoad prompt. All testSuites that are included as part of a product specific MOTLoad firmware package are product specific. For more information, refer to the testSuite command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.
Test results and test status are obtained through the testStatus, errorDisplay , and
taskActive commands. Refer to the appropriate command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual for more information.

6.4 Using the Command Line Interface

Interaction with MOTLoad is performed via a command line interface through a serial port on the single board computer, which is connected to a terminal or terminal emulator (for example, Window’s Hypercomm). The default MOTLoad serial port settings are: 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity.
The MOTLoad command line interface is similar to a UNIX command line shell interface. Commands are initiated by entering a valid MOTLoad command (a text string) at the MOTLoad command line prompt and pressing the carriage-return key to signify the end of input. MOTLoad then performs the specified action. An example of a MOTLoad command line prompt is shown below. The MOTLoad prompt changes according to what product it is used on (for example, MVME6100, MVME3100, MVME7100).
Example:
MVME7100>
MVME7100ET Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800K87G) 91
Page 92
MOTLoad Firmware
If an invalid MOTLoad command is entered at the MOTLoad command line prompt, MOTLoad displays a message that the command was not found.
Example:
MVME7100> mytest "mytest" not found
MVME7100>
If the user enters a partial MOTLoad command string that can be resolved to a unique valid MOTLoad command and presses the carriage-return key, the command is executed as if the entire command string had been entered. This feature is a user-input shortcut that minimizes the required amount of command line input. MOTLoad is an ever changing firmware package, so user-input shortcuts may change as command additions are made.
Example:
MVME7100>[ver]sion Copyright: Motorola Inc.1999-2005, All Rights Reserved
MOTLoad RTOS Version 2.0, PAL Version 1.0 RM01 Mon Aug 29 15:24:13 MST 2005 MVME7100>
Example:
MVME7100> ver Copyright: Motorola Inc.1999-2005, All Rights Reserved
MOTLoad RTOS Version 2.0, PAL Version 1.0 RM01 Mon Aug 29 15:24:13 MST 2005 MVME7100>
MOTLoad Firmware
If the partial command string cannot be resolved to a single unique command, MOTLoad informs the user that the command was ambiguous.
Example:
MVME7100> te "te" ambiguous
MVME7100>

6.4.1 Rules

There are a few things to remember when entering a MOTLoad command:
Multiple commands are per mitted on a single command line, provided they are
separated by a single semicolon (;).
Spaces separate the various fields on the command line
(command/arguments/options).
92 MVME7100ET Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800K87G)
Page 93
The argument/option identifier character is always preceded by a hyphen (-)
Options are identified by a single character. Option arguments immediately follow (no spaces) the option. All commands, command options, and device tree strings are case sensitive.
Example:
MVME7100> flashProgram –d/dev/flash0 –n00100000
For more information on MOTLoad operation and function, refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.

6.4.2 Help

Each MOTLoad firmware package has an extensive, product-specific help facility that can be accessed through the help command. The user can enter help at the MOTLoad command line to display a complete listing of all available tests and utilities.
Example:
MVME7100> help
MOTLoad Firmware
character.
For help with a specific test or utility the user can enter the following at the MOTLoad prompt:
help <command_name>
The help command also supports a limited form of pattern matching. Refer to the help command page.
Example:
MVME7100> help testRam Usage: testRam [-aPh] [-bPh] [-iPd] [-nPh] [-tPd] [-v]
Description: RAM Test [Directory] Argument/Option Description
-a Ph: Address to Start (Default = Dynamic Allocation)
-b Ph: Block Size (Default = 16KB)
-i Pd: Iterations (Default = 1)
-n Ph: Number of Bytes (Default = 1MB)
-t Ph: Time Delay Between Blocks in OS Ticks (Default = 1)
-v O : Verbose Output

6.5 Firmware Settings

The following sections provide additional information pertaining to the MVME7100ET VME
bus interface settings as configured by MOTLoad. A few VME settings are controlled by hardware jumpers while the majority of the VME settings are managed by the firmware command utility vmeCfg.
VME settings in MOTLoad are preserved through the use of Global Environment Variables (GEVs). Configuration GEVs are executed only at power-on reset.
Therefore, if VME configuration changes are implemented through vmeCfg and
board reset must be effected for the changes to be implemented in MOTLoad.

6.5.1 Default VME Settings

As shipped from the factory, the MVME7100ET has the following VME configuration programmed via Global Environment Variables (GEVs) for the Tsi148 VME controller. The firmware allows certain VME settings to be changed in order for the user to customize the environment. The following is a description of the default VME settings that are changeable by the user. For more information, refer to the MOTLoad User’s Manual and Tundra’s
Tsi148 User Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related Documentation.

6.6 Remote Star t

As described in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User's Manual, listed in Appendix B,
Related Documentation, remote start allows the user to obtain information about the target
board, download code and/or data, modify memory on the target, and execute a downloaded program. These transactions occur across the VMEbus in the case of the MVME7100ET. MOTLoad uses one of four mailboxes in the Tsi148 VME controller as the inter-board communication address (IBCA) between the host and the target.
CR/CSR slave addresses configured by MOTLoad are assigned according to the installation slot in the backplane, as indicated by the VME64 Specification. For reference, the following values are provided:
CS/CSR Starting Address Slot Position
1 0x0008.0000

MOTLoad Firmware
The MVME7100ET uses a TSi148 for its PCI/X-to-VME bus bridge. The offsets of the
mailboxes in the TSi148 are defined in the TSi148 VMEBus PCI/X-to-VME User Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related Documentation, but are noted here for reference:
Mailbox 0 is at offset 7f610 in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 1 is at offset 7f614 in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 2 is at offset 7f618 in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 3 is at offset 7f61C in the CR/CSR space
The selection of the mailbox used by remote start on an individual MVME7100ET is
determined by the setting of a global environment variable (GEV). The default mailbox is zero. Another GEV controls whether remote start is enabled (default) or disabled. Refer to the Remote Start appendix in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User's Manual for remote start GEV definitions.
The MVME7100ETs IBCA needs to be mapped appropriately through the master’s VMEbus bridge. For example, to use remote start using mailbox 0 on an MVME7100ET
installed in slot 5, the master would need a mapping to support reads and writes of address 0x002ff610 in VME CR/CSR space (0x280000 + 0x7f610).

6.7 Boot Images

MOTLoad Firmware
Valid boot images whether POST, USER, or Alternate MOTLoad, are located on 1 MB
boundaries within the upper 8 MB of flash. The image may exceed 1 MB in size. An image is determined valid through the presence of two "valid image keys" and other sanity checks. A valid boot image begins with a structure as defined in the following table:
Name Type Size Notes
