1 Box contents
Make sure you receive all items of your shipment:
• MVME8100 board
• One printed copy of Quick Start Guide (this document)
• One printed copy of Safety Notes Summary
When installing or servicing the system or accessories,
strictly observe the safety precautions in the Safety Notes
Summary. Ignoring these instructions can void the system
warranty and cause personal injury or property damage.
2 ESD
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation or
removal of the card can damage circuit or shorten its life.
Use a properly grounded ESD wrist strap or work in an
ESD-safe environment.
Connect to the ESD connector at the front or the rear of
the system.
3 Site preparation
1. Make sure that all environmental and power requirements
defined in the MVME8100/8105/8110 Installation and Use
manual are met.
2. Remove all items from the box.
4 Install a PMC/XMC
(option)
1. Remove the PMC/XMC filler plate from the front panel cut-out.
2. Slide the front bezel of the PMC/XMC into the cut-out from
behind. The front bezel of the PMC/XMC module will be flush
with the board when the connectors on the module align with the
mating connectors on the board.
3. Align the mating connectors properly and apply minimal pressure
to the PMC/XMC until it is seated to the board.
4. Insert the four PMC/XMC mounting screws through the mounting
holes on the bottom side of the board, and then thread the four
mount points on the PMC/XMC.
5. Tighten the screws.
5 Install the Board
Note: The MVME8100 and associated Rear Transition Modules
(RTMs) do not support hot swap. Power off the slot or the system
and make sure that the serial ports and switches are properly
configured.
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist.
2. 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.
3. Remove any filler panel that might fill that slot.
4. Install the top and bottom edge of the MVME8100into the guides
of the chassis.
5. Make sure the levers of the two IEEE locking injector/ejectors (if
equipped) are in the unlocked outward position.
6. Slide the MVME8100 into the chassis until you feel resistance.
7. Simultaneously move the injector/ejector levers (if equipped) in
an inward direction until locked. If fitted with SCANBE ejectors,
adjust them inward and apply pressure to them to seat the board.
8. Verify that the MVME8100is properly installed.
9. Secure the board to the chassis using the two screws located
adjacent to the injector/ejector levers.
10.Connect the appropriate cables to the MVME8100.
11.If installing an RTM, repeat steps 1-10 for the RTM.
12.When the MVME8100 (and optional RTM) is installed in a
chassis, you are ready to connect peripherals and apply power
to the slot or system.
13.The front-panel Micro-DB9 connector provides a console
interface to U-boot. It presents an RS-232 DTE interface (TX/RX/
CTS/RTS). The default serial configuration is 9600/8/N/1.This
mates with an ITT MDSM-9SC-Z11 (or equivalent).
The SMART Embedded Computing part number SERIAL-MINI-D2
converts this to a standard male DB9 interface.
