Installation
The V7865 conforms to the VME physical specification for a single slot 6U Eurocard
(dual height). It can be plugged directly into any standard chassis accepting this type
of board.
CAUTION: Do not install or remove the board while power is applied.
The following steps describe the GE Fanuc Embedded Systems recommended
method for V7865 installation and power-up:
1. Make sure power to the equipment is off.
2. Choose chassis slot. The V7865 must be attached to a P1/P2 VME backplane.
If the V7865 is to be the VME system controller, choose the first VME slot. If a
different board is the VME system controller, choose any slot except slot one.
The V7865 does not require jumpers for enabling/disabling the system
controller function.
3. For the Vita 41.3 option, the board must be installed into a Vita 41.3 compatible
backplane.
NOTE : The V7865 should never be used with any of the 74xx boards/cabling from
GE Fanuc Embedded Systems, except for the VME-7469, which can support SATA.
NOTE: Air flow requirements as measured at output side of heatsink is to be greater
than 400LFM.
4. Connect all needed peripherals to the front panel. Each connector is clearly
labeled on the front panel, and detailed pinouts are in Appendix A. Minimally, a
keyboard and a monitor are required if the user has not previously configured
the system.
5. Apply power to the system. Several messages are displayed on the screen,
including names, versions and copyright dates for the various BIOS modules on
the V7865.
6. The V7865 features an optional CompactFlash resident on the board. Refer to
Chapter 3 for set up details.
7. If an external drive module is installed, the BIOS Setup program must be run to
configure the drive types. See Appendix B to properly configure the system.
8. If a drive module is present, install the operating system according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
