Jumper J6 on the transition module controls the routing of the COM1 port to either the
processor board front panel or through the PIM 1 socket on the transition module. When pins
1 and 2 are jumpered on J6, the COM1 signal is routed to the PIM1 socket on the transition
module. When pins 2 and 3 are jumpered on J6 the COM1 signal is routed to the processor
board front panel. Jumper J11 on the transition module controls the routing of the COM2 port
to either the processor board front panel or through the PIM2 socket on the transition module.
When pins 1 and 2 are jumpered on J11, the COM2 signal is routed to PIM2 on the transition
module. When pins 2 and 3 are jumpered on J11, the COM2 signal is routed to the processor
board front panel.

Functional Description

The following subsections describe the major functional components of the CPCI-6115-
MCPTM transition module. There are certain differences between the IP version and the
CompactPCI model that are explained in the subsections where those differences apply.

5.7.1

IDE Flash

The CPCI-6115 SBC supports a single IDE channel routed to the J5 User I/O connector. The
CPCI-6115-MCPTM contains one 50-pin Type II connector which supports a removable IDE
CompactFlash memory card on the primary IDE channel. Refer to the

CompactFlash Jumper

on page 102

for the definition of this connector. The CompactFlash connector is not accessible

through the rear panel. The CPCI-6115 transition module must be removed in order to install a
CompactFlash memory card.

Since the transition module receives its power from the host board through power pins on the
backplane, it cannot be removed in a hot-swap chassis without first removing the associated
host board, or by powering off the slot in some other way, via software or by toggling the lower
lever of the associated host board, so the blue LED illuminates. Since the CompactFlash is an
active component, and some PIMs are as well, damage to these active components may occur
if the transition module is not properly powered down.
