Enter the EXM-IDs for the EXMs you intend to install in this system. Up to six EXMs

can be installed.

Each EXM expansion module has values you must enter for the option byte 1 and

option byte 2 configuration data. When you are finished with this menu, press the right

arrow key to move to the VME Menu, or press ESC.

EXM Slot 31

Slot 31 refers to the optional resident Flash memory. The ID should be set to FF if

your EPC-8 does not have this feature. If present, then set the ID to “ FD” and Option

Byte 1 to ‘‘01’’.

Slots 0 through 8

Consult the appropriate EXM manual for the correct configuration information for

each EXM expansion module installed. Note, however, that most EXM hardware

reference manuals depict a different setup BIOS from the EPC-8. The ID/OB1/OB2

information is valid.
