    This will cause the system to lock up. There is only one situation in which the system might lack this global bus timeout: when the MVME1603/1604 is not the system controller and there is no global bus timeout elsewhere in the system.

  • Page 60: Mvme1600-001 Base Board

    One register of the GCSR (global control/status register) set includes four bits that function as location monitors to allow one MVME1603/1604 processor to broadcast a signal to any other MVME1603/1604 processors. All eight registers are accessible from any local processor as well as from the VMEbus.

  • Page 61: Mvme1600-011 Base Board

    Hardware Preparation and Installation Note Because any device on the SCSI bus can provide TERMPWR and because the LED monitors the status of several voltages, the LED does not directly indicate the condition of any single fuse. If the LED flickers or goes out, check all the fuses (polyswitches).
  • Page 62 System Considerations Like the MVME1600-001 base board, the MVME1600-011 supplies a signal to the 14-pin LED mezzanine connector, J1. Unlike SPEAKER_OUT the MVME1600-001 base board, the MVME1600-011 also applies the signal to the dedicated remote status and control SPEAKER_OUT connector, J4. The LED mezzanine need not be removed to cable the signal to an external speaker.

    Operating Instructions PCI Domain The PCI bus is inherently little-endian and all devices connected directly to PCI will operate in little-endian mode, regardless of the mode of operation in the processor’s domain. 53C825 or 53C810(SCSI) SCSI is byte-stream-oriented; the byte having the lowest address in memory is the first one to be transferred regardless of the endian mode.
  • Page 90 Programming Considerations In big-endian mode, byte-swapping is performed first by the VME2PCI and then by the MPC105. The result has the desirable effect of being transparent to the big-endian software. In little-endian mode, however, software must take the byte-swapping effect of the VME2PCI and the address reverse-rearranging effect of the MPC105 into account.
