To remove the board, please proceed as follows:
• Ensure that the safety requirements indicated above are observed
• Disconnect any interfacing cables that may be connected to the board
• Disengage the board retaining mechanism by pressing down on the board release
handle disengaging the board from the backplane connector and pull the board out
of the slot.
3.1.1 External Serial Interface Module
Being a combined system and serial communications controller board, the VSBC-32(E)
is designed for a possible combined use together with the CXM-SIO3 external serial
interface module. If such an interface module is used, all communication signals
between the mainboard and the module are transmitted via the CXC bus. For this pur-
pose, the external interface module must be “sandwiched” with the VSBC-32(E) main-
board.
3.2 Software Installation
There are no special requirements for software installation. However, many components
of the VSBC-32(E) are controlled by the MC68(EN)360 processor. Due to this fact, the
controller requires a special initialization sequence before any other software can be
started.
For any details on the initialization sequence and the address list of involved registers
please refer to the relevant description in the User’s Manual included with your operat-
ing system.
