Overview
Introduction
VMIC’s VMIVME-7697 is a complete IBM PC/AT-compatible Pentium III
processor-based computer with the a dditiona l benefits o f Dual Eurocard construction
and full compatibility with the VMEbus Specification Rev. C.1. The VMIVME-7697
with advanced VMEbus interface and RAM that is dual-ported to the VMEbus, is
ideal for multiprocessor applications.
The dual-slot CPU board functions as a standard PC/AT, executing a PC/AT-type
power-on se lf-test, then boots up MS-DOS, Windows 3.11, W indows 95, W i ndows NT ,
or any other PC/AT-compatible operating system. The PC/AT mode of the
VMIVME-7697 is discussed in Chapter 3 of this manual.
The VMIVME-7697 also operates as a VMEbus controller and interacts with other
VMEbus modules via the on-board PCI-to-VMEbus bridge and the Endian conversion
hardware.
The VMIVME-7697 may be accessed as a VMEbus slave board. The VMEbus functions
are available by programming the VMIVME-7697’s PCI-to-VMEbus bridge according
to the references defined in this volume and/or in the second volume dedicated to the
optional PCI-to-VMEbus interface board titled: VMIVME-7697 Tundra Universe
™-Based VMEbus Interface Product Manual (document No. 500-007697-001 Rev. A).
II
The VMIVME-7697 programmer may quickly and easily control all the VMEbus
functions simply by linking to a library of VMEbus interrupt and control functions.
This library is available with VMIC’s VMISFT-9420 IOWorks Access software for
Windows NT users.
The VMIVME-7697 also provides capabilities beyond the features of a typical PC/AT
compatible CPU including general-purpose timers, a programmable watchdog timer,
a bootable flash disk system, remote LANboot, and nonvolatile, battery-backed
SRAM. These features make the unit ideal for embedded applications. These
nonstandard PC/AT functions are discussed in Chapter 4 of this manual.

Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the
operation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these
precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of this product.
VMIC assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these
requirements.
Ground the System
To minimize shock hazard, the chassis and system cabinet must be connected to an
electrical ground. A three-conductor AC power cable should be used. The power
cable must either be plugged into an approved three-contact electrical outlet or used
with a three-contact to two-contact adapter with the grounding wire (green) firmly
connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the system in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of
any electrical system in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.
Safety Summary
Keep Away from Live Circuits
Operating personnel must not remove product covers. Component replacement and
internal adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not
replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions,
dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries,
always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them.
Do Not Service or Adjust Alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person capable of
rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.
Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify System
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute
parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the product. Return the product to
VMIC for service and repair to ensure that safety features are maintained.
Dangerous Procedure Warnings
Warnings, such as the example below, precede only potentially danger ous pr ocedures
throughout this manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed.
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are pr esent in this system. Use extre me
caution when handling , t es t ing, and adjusting.

Notation and Terminology
This product bridges the traditionally divergent worlds of Intel-based PC’s and
Motorola-based VMEbus controllers; therefore, some confusion over “conventional”
notation and terminology may exist. Every effort has been made to make this manual
consistent by adhering to conventions typical for the Motorola/VMEbus world;
nevertheless, users in both camps should review the following notes:
• Hexadecimal numbers are listed Motorola-style, prefixed with a dollar sign:
$F79, for example. By contrast, this same number would be signified 0F79H
according to the Intel convention, or 0xF79 by many programmers. Less
common are forms such as F79
• An 8-bit quantity is termed a “byt e,” a 16-bi t qu antit y is ter med a “wor d,” and a
32-bit quantity is termed a “longword.” The Intel convention is similar,
although their 32-bit quantity is more often called a “doubleword.”
• Motorola programmers should note that Intel processors have an I/O bus that
is completely independent from the memory bus. Every effort has been made in
the manual to clarify this by referring to registers and logical entities in I/O
space by prefixing I/O addresses as such. Thus, a register at “I/O $140” is not
the same as a register at “$140,” since the latter is on the memory bus while the
former is on the I/O bus.
• Int el programmers should note that addresses are listed in this manual using a
linear, “flat-memory” model rather than the old segment:offset model
associated with Intel Real Mode programming. Thus, a ROM chip at a
segment:offset address of C000:0 will be listed in this manual as being at
address $C0000. For reference, here are some quick conversion formulas:
or the mathematician’s F7916.
h
Notation and Terminology
Segment:Offset to Linear Address
Linear Address = (Segment × 16) + Offset
Linear Address to Segment:Offset
Segment = ((Linear Address ÷ 65536) − remainder ) × 4096
Offset = remainder × 65536
Where remainder = the fractional part of (Linear Address ÷ 65536)
Note that there are many possible segment:offset addresses for a single location. The
formula above will provide a unique segment:offset address by forcing the segment to
an even 64 Kbyte boundary, for example, $C000, $E000, etc. When using this formula,
make sure to round the offset calculation properly!
