Power Supply Limit Considerations  
The MVME956AC chassis is supplied with a 550-watt, 3-output switching  
power supply. The power supply is capable of higher output currents than  
the interconnection to the backplane. As designed, the enclosure +5 Vdc  
output is rated at 60 amperes, the +12 Vdc output at 10 amperes (16 peak),  
and the -12 Vdc output at 10 amperes.  
The current rating for each individual output must not be  
exceeded, and the total power supply output power must not  
exceed 550 watts. When calculating the 5-volt current,  
remember to include the backplane termination resistors.  
!
Caution  
The system integrator must ensure that the installed peripheral  
devices and VME module set do not exceed the power supply  
rating.  
VME Bus Backplane Description and Specifications  
The MVME956AC chassis contains one 12-slot, full 64-bit VME bus  
backplane mounted to the left of the peripheral device area. The backplane  
can accommodate up to 12 VME modules. It uses all signal and power  
lines for VME bus connectors P1 and P2.

Safety and Regulatory Compliance  
All systems integrated by Motorola meet the standards claimed for those  
systems with regard to electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio  
frequency interference (RFI), and overall safety. It is possible, however, to  
install circuit boards and drives in the MVME956AC enclosure that  
produce a system not in compliance with the applicable emission limits.  
Note It is the integrators responsibility to design a payload that  
meets the desired standards.  
When Motorola integrates a payload into the MVME956AC enclosure, it  
is often necessary to make changes to the payload in order for the system  
to pass RFI standards. The following is a list of conditions that in general  
must be met in order to achieve compliance with RFI standards:  
At a minimum, the chassis must be connected to earth ground  
through the safety ground wire in the power cord to meet safety and  
other requirements.  
All external I/O cables should be high-quality shielded types with  
metal shell connectors.  
Connectors on VME modules should be metal shell types,  
connected to earth ground. This is accomplished through the  
conductive panels in contact with the chassis rails.  
All VME modules should have conductive panels to ensure a good  
RF ground with the conductive chassis rails.  
Blank panels with EMI gaskets should be installed over all unused  
chassis slots to ensure there are no RF leaks in the chassis.  
1-6  
Computer Group Literature Center Web Site  
General Precautions  
1
The VME module front panel screws should be properly tightened  
for good grounding.  
For minimum RF emissions, it is essential that the foregoing conditions be  
implemented. Failure to do so could compromise the RFI compliance of  
the system.  
This product, as configured and shipped by Motorola, has been designed  
and tested for compliance with the following RFI standards and product  
safety regulations:  
Electromagnetic Compatibility: FCC class A; European CE Class A  
Safety: UL 1950; CSA C22.2/950; VDE EN 60 950; IEC 950  
It is the customers responsibility to verify compliance if the customer  
makes changes or additions to the "as-shipped" configuration.  
General Precautions  
Ensure that the air space above and below the chassis is not blocked,  
and that the inlet screens and optional air filter are clean.  
The air inlet temperature must not exceed 40 degrees Celsius. If the  
MVME956AC is installed in a rack with other chassis, be sure that  
each chassis in the rack is provided with its own supply of fresh  
cooling air. Do not use air heated by one chassis to “cool” another  
chassis.  
All unused VME module slots must be covered to prevent cooling  
air and/or RF emissions from escaping from the chassis.  
The chassis should be used only in a clean environment such as an  
office or lab.  
Operating Environment  
When using tape and disk drive units in the MVME956AC chassis observe  
the following:  
1-7  
General Information  
1
This equipment is intended for use in a relatively clean environment  
(office or lab). In some industrial environments, you may need to  
provide additional protection against airborne contaminants in order  
to assure reliable operation of the floppy disk and magnetic tape  
drives and media.  
This equipment is intended for use in an enclosure consisting of the  
front bezel together with the Motorola top panel and side panels or  
equivalent. Operating this equipment without a front bezel may  
compromise compliance with RFI and/or product safety  
regulations. It may expose the operator to electrical and mechanical  
hazards.  
Chassis Cooling Considerations  
The system integrator must ensure that all modules used in the  
!
system are properly cooled. The following information will  
help you to determine whether the cooling is adequate.  
Caution  
The MVME956AC chassis is designed for an input air temperature below  
40 degrees Celsius. Three DC-powered fans provide forced-air cooling for  
the power supply, mass storage enclosure, and VME modules. The  
direction of air flow is: in at the bottom of the chassis, past the power  
supply and VME modules, and out the top of the chassis. The 24-volt fans  
deliver 81 CFM at zero inches of water. An air filter is optional.  
The fans provide airflow sufficient for most VME modules, but some high-  
density, high-power modules may require more cooling than this enclosure  
provides. When integrating VME modules that are known to be difficult to  
cool, testing is advisable to confirm that such modules are properly cooled.  
No forced air cooling is provided for the rear-mounted modules. The rear-  
mounted modules are typically transition modules with few active  
components, and cooling is generally not required.

Overview  
This chapter provides a description of the controls, indicators, and  
operating procedures for the MVME956AC chassis.  
System operation using this chassis is completely dependent on your  
choice of hardware and software. Therefore, the only operation discussed  
here is a suggested basic power on/power off procedure.  
Controls and Indicators  
The MVME956AC chassis contains one control (switch). The switch has  
an indicator (LED) that is powered by the +5 Vdc output from the power  
supply. Some of the individual modules used in the chassis may also  
contain controls and/or indicators. This manual describes only those that  
are part of the chassis. For a description of other related controls and  
indicators, refer to the documentation that came with your module(s).  
The control provided for the MVME956AC chassis is an AC power  
ON/OFF switch. With the switch in the OFF position, power to the  
modules is removed but the primary side of the power supply remains  
energized. This switch is located at the lower left front corner of the chassis  
and provides a convenient means of powering the chassis up and down.  
3-1  
Operating Procedures  
Power Control Procedure  
A suggested power-on procedure for the chassis is as follows:  
3
1. Ensure that all modules and cabling are properly configured and  
installed. Also check that all required external cabling (to  
peripherals) is correctly installed.  
2. Plug in the AC line cord (at the rear of the chassis) and connect the  
cord to an AC power source.  
3. Set the power switch at the front of the chassis to (ON). The power  
supply cycles up and the cooling fans immediately come on.  
4. Power up any peripheral equipment interfaced to the chassis that has  
its own power on/off switch.  
A suggested power-off sequence for the chassis is as follows:  
Note Ensure that proper software shutdown procedures have been  
executed before you continue.  
1. Power down any peripheral equipment interfaced to the chassis that  
has its own power on/off switch.  
2. Set the power switch to OFF. The power supply cycles down, and  
the cooling fans stop running. For the AC chassis only, the power  
supply fan will continue to run.

412-Slot VMEbus Backplane  
4
Overview  
This chapter provides a physical and electrical description of the 12-slot  
VME bus backplane used in the MVME956AC chassis. Refer to Chapter  
1 for features and specifications of the backplane. Refer to Chapter 6 for  
removal and replacement procedures.  
Physical Description  
The backplane was designed to accommodate VME modules and disk  
drive units. It accommodates up to 12 double-high user VME modules  
containing both P1 and P2 connectors. The backplane is fully assembled  
with connectors and terminators. It contains:  
12 connectors on the top row to receive connector P1 of the VME  
modules  
12 connectors on the bottom row to receive VME module expansion  
connector P2  
Backplane Power  
VME modules that plug into the backplane require voltages of +5 Vdc,  
+12 Vdc, and -12 Vdc for operation. The MVME956AC chassis contains  
a power supply and wiring that provide these voltages to the backplane.  
The power connectors characteristics and the number and arrangement of  
their pins are summarized in Figure 4-1 on page 4-4.  
4-1  
12-Slot VMEbus Backplane  
Backplane Bus Connectors  
All rows of J101 through J112 (Z, A, B, C, D) are interconnected across all  
12 slots, which provides the required signals for A24/D16 operation.  
The center row (B) of J201 through J212 is interconnected across all 12  
slots, which provides the required signals for extended operation  
(A32/D32).  
4
Rows A and C of J201 through J212 are not interconnected, but are  
available for I/O functions or expansion bus operation.  
VME64x Bus Interface Signal Termination  
Signal lines are terminated with active termination. For further information  
on bus termination and VME64x bus backplane specifications, refer to the  
VME64 Extensions Specification, VITA 1.1-199x.  
4-2  
Computer Group Literature Center Web Site  
Backplane Preparation  
Backplane Preparation  
The chassis is shipped from the factory with the backplane fully equipped  
with sockets (VME64X bus connectors), power connectors, and bus  
terminator resistor networks. No special preparation or preassembly is  
required prior to use.  
4
You must configure the VME64X bus daisy-chain jumpers on the rear  
(wire side) of the backplane. Refer to VITA 1.x Live Insertion for VME64x  
requirements standard for more electrical detail and information on daisy-  
chain jumpering.  
Note Backplane daisy-chain jumpers normally are shipped with  
the chassis. If necessary, additional jumpers can be ordered  
from Motorola.

Install the Daisy-Chain Jumpers  
Install the Daisy-Chain Jumpers  
All daisy-chain lines of the VME64x bus can be separately bypassed with  
removable shorting jumpers on every connector socket. Shorting the input  
to the output of the daisy-chain signals is required if the daisy-chains are  
in use, and if a VME64x module design does not provide for the  
propagation of the daisy-chain.  
4
For instance, if a backplane slot contains a device module designed for  
daisy-chain signal propagation, no jumpers are required on the jumper pins  
for that slot. However, all empty slots, and slots containing modules  
without this capability, must have daisy-chain jumpers installed to provide  
propagation of these signals.  
Daisy-chain bypass jumper areas are provided on the rear side of the  
backplane. For an illustration of the backplane daisy-chain jumper wiring,  
see Figure 4-2 on page 4-8.  
The following procedure is suggested for installing the jumpers:  
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD  
strap to the chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to  
your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.  
2. Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power  
off and remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system.  
3. At the rear of the backplane, select the row(s) of header pins that  
require jumpers. Any backplane slot that will not be occupied by a  
VME64x module requires jumpers on the rear backplane pins to  
propagate the Bus Grant (BG) and Interrupt Acknowledge (IACK)  
signals to the next VME64x module slot. See Figure 4-1 on page 4-4  
and Table 4-2 on page 4-7.  
For example: If a VME64x module is used in all slots except slots  
J103 and J106, jumpers must be installed on the BG and IACK pins  
associated with those slots. (The pins that must be jumpered are the  
ones located immediately to the left of the module slot, J4 through  
J14, depending on the slot, when viewed from the rear of the  
backplane.) In this case, the following pairs of header pins would  
require jumpers:  
4-5  
12-Slot VMEbus Backplane  
– Row of pins, left side of slot J103 - BG0, BG1, ...  
– Row of pins, left side of slot J106 - BG0, BG1, ...  
Carefully align the jumper(s) on the correct pair of pins to be  
jumpered and gently push until the top of the jumper is flush with  
the top of the pins.  
4
4. Continue in this fashion, placing jumpers on all pairs of pins for  
each backplane slot that will not be occupied by a VME64x module.  
Pin Assignments  
Power Monitor Connection  
Connectors J1 and J3 provide for the power monitor signals ACFAIL,  
SYSFAIL and SYSRESET. They have the following pinouts.

Live Insertion  
Sockets J4-J14 allow the daisy-chained bus grant arbitration and interrupt  
priority resolution processes to continue unaffected during live insertion or  
removal. These sockets, in conjunction with the headers for bus grant  
signal jumpers and the headers for IACK signal jumpers can be used with  
a user-supplied daisy-chain switch module. This switch module  
incorporates the backplane daisy-chain bypass circuits.

Following ESD and Safety Procedures  
Use ESD  
Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a  
conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading the system. Electronic  
components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules,  
can be extremely sensitive to ESD. After removing the component from  
the system or its protective wrapper, place the component flat on a  
grounded, static-free surface, and in the case of a board, component-side  
Wrist Strap  
up. Do not slide the component over any surface.  
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from  
ESD by wearing an antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores)  
that is attached to an unpainted metal part of the system chassis.
