GE VMIVME-1182 Specifications
Any precautions found in the shipping container should be observed. All itemsshould be carefully unpacked and thoroughly inspected for damage that might have
occurred during shipment. The board(s) should be checked for broken components,
damaged printed circuit board(s), heat damage and other visible contamination. All
claims arising from shipping damage should be filed with the carrier and a complete
report sent to GE Fanuc Embedded Systems Customer Care along with a request for
advice concerning the disposition of the damaged item(s).
CAUTION: Some of the components assembled on GE Fanuc Embedded Systems
products may be sensitive to electrostatic discharge and damage may occur on boards
that are subjected to a high energy electrostatic field. When the board is placed on a
bench for configuring, etc., it is suggested that conductive material be inserted under
the board to provide a conductive shunt. Unused boards should be stored in the same
protective boxes in which they were shipped.

The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC conform to the VME physical specification for a 6U
board. The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC can be used for system control or as a
peripheral board. They can be plugged directly into any standard chassis accepting
either type of board.
The following steps describe the GE Fanuc Embedded Systems-recommended
method for installation and powerup of the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC :
1. If a PMC module is to be used, connect it to the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC
prior to board installation (as shown in Figure 1-2 on page 29). Refer to the
Product Manual for the PMC module for configuration and setup.
NOTE: Air flow requirements as measured at the output side of heatsink is to be
greater than 450LFM.
2. Insert the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC into a VME chassis system controller or
peripheral slot. While ensuring that the board is properly aligned and oriented
in the supporting board guides, slide the board smoothly forward against the
mating connectors. Use the ejector handles to firmly seat the board.
3. All needed peripherals can be accessed from the front panel or the rear I/O
VMIACC-0586/ACC-0586RC or VMIACC-0590/ACC-0590RC Rear Transition
Modules (RTMs). Each connector is clearly labeled on the front panel and
detailed pinouts are in Appendix A.
4. Connect a keyboard and mouse if the system has not been previously
configured.
5. The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC feature an optional CompactFlash Disk
resident on the board. Refer to Chapter 3 for set up details.
6. If an external drive module is installed, the BIOS Setup program must be used to
configure the drive types. See Appendix B to properly configure the system.
7. If a drive module is present, install the operating system according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
