2 Installation
2.1 Introduction
• Carefully remove the board from the shipping carton.
- Save the original shipping container and packing material for storing
or reshipping the board.
Avoid touching integrated circuits except in an electrostatic free
environment. Electrostatic discharge can damage circuits or shorten
their lifetime.
• Inspect the board for any shipping damage. If undamaged, the board can
be prepared for system installation.
When unplugging boards from the rack or otherwise handling
boards, do always observe precautions for handling electrostatic
devices.
2.1.1 Board
Installation
The installation of the EUROCOM-17-5xx is not complicated, requiring
only a VGA monitor, an AT-keyboard with PS/2 connector, a power
supply, and a suitably terminated VMEbus backplane. The power supply
must meet the specifications described in Section1.5 ‘Definition of Board
Parameters’. The processor board requires +5V supply voltage; ±12V are
needed for the RS232 serial interface and the Ethernet interface.
A standard VGA monitor has to be connected to the 15-pin Sub-D female
connector and the keyboard has to be connected to 6-pin female miniature
circular (mini-DIN) connector. Both connectors are located on the front
panel. A standard VGA monitor and a standard PS/2 compatible keyboard
will fit without modification. For connection to an AT-keyboard,
ADAP-210 is available.
