Introduction
Major Components
TheSeries 900 computer system consists of modular units that are installed in
a stacked arrangement. These modules are designed to interconnect with a
vertical latching mechanism. The
maximum number of modules in a single
stack is five. This canbe:
0 a combination of the CPU Module and one to three VME Expansion
Modules and one to four SCSI Device ExpansionModules, or
0 up to five stand-alone SCSI Device Expansion modules.
There
are three categories of modules:
0 CPUModule
where the Applications Processor resides;
0 VME Expansion Module
add-on VME options are installed in this module;
0 SCSI Device Expansion Module
contains fixed and removable disk drives.
CPU Module
The CPU Module contains the single board computer, the I/0 Distribution
board, and the optional modem. This module has four slots. The top or first
slot is reserved for the
I/0 Distributionboard. The single board computer is
normally installed in the second slot. The remaining slots may be used for
memory expansion or VME options.
VME Expansion Module
The VME Expansion Module houses additionalVME options such as the Serial
I/0 Controller, SCSI-2 controller, Ethernet LAN controller, and SNA, BSC,
X.25 Communicationscontrollers. EachVME Expansion Module contains four
VME expansion slots.
SCSI Device Expansion Module

Major Components
Crown and Base
The crown is a separate part covering the interconnect opening in the top
surface of the module. The base latches to the bottom module and provides
severalfunctions. The base adds stability to the stackof modules, lifts it out of
dusty air, and protects the cooling vents from blockage. The base contains two
electronic modules: the VME terminator and the Base Unit Power System.

CPU Configuration
The CPU Module contains the single board computer, the I/0 distribution
board, and the internal modem. There are four positions in this module. The
top slot is designated as the first slot because theVME bus expands from the
top down. Due to special routing of signals in the backplane and VME
terminator board the first slot is the last logical slot.
The first slot
in the CPU Module has a partial Pl only VME bus. The Pl only
interface to the VME bus is used by the I/0 distribution board for
communication to the system.
1/0 Distribution Board
The I/ 0 distribution board containsallthe input and output connectionsfrom
thesingle
board computer. It is a single wide VME form factor board. The I/0
distribution board has four primary functions:
0 System power control
These circuits,
powered by the base system power supply, turn the
modules' power supplies on and off. The circuits are connected to the
keylock switch located
on the front of the CPU Module.
0 Power monitor
This circuit detects when any module power supply is out of regulation.
0 Modem and cooling reset
S900RF/D4
When the keylock switch is turned to the reset position, the internal
modem and the cooling failure power shutdown circuitry is reset.
