Installation and setup

Unboxing and hardware setup

After opening the box, it is necessary to check whether the items have been damaged during transportation and pay attention to electrostatic protection.

Hardware settings involve various jumpers and switches, such as battery enable jumper (E3), system controller switch (S1), password clear/BIOS boot mode switch (S2), etc. Users can configure them according to their needs, but it should be noted that some factory configured jumpers should not be modified by users.

Installation steps

If using PMC module, connect it to VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC before installing the motherboard.

Insert the board into the system controller or peripheral slot of the VME chassis, ensuring proper alignment and secure installation.

The required peripherals can be accessed through the transition module of the front panel or Rear I/O, which have different interfaces and functions.

If the system is not pre configured, a keyboard and mouse need to be connected.

If an external driver module is installed, the BIOS setup program needs to be used to configure the driver type.

If there is a driver module, install the operating system according to the manufacturer's instructions.

BIOS settings

The onboard BIOS setup program controls many configuration options, which are stored in a special non-volatile, battery powered storage chip called the "CMOS configuration" of the board. For detailed settings, please refer to Appendix B.

Maintenance and Compliance

Maintenance

If the product malfunctions, it is necessary to first check the software, system configuration, electrical connections, etc. If it needs to be returned for repair, it is necessary to contact GE Fanuc Embedded Systems to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA). User level maintenance is not recommended, and the drawings and charts in the manual are for reference only.
