Overview - Multiple Frames Configuration

Frame 2 is an in-line frame. It has an input and output cable. The

output cable always connects into the input connector of the

downstream frame.

Frame 3 is the end frame. An end frame has no output cable. Each

Multi-frame configuration must have one, and only one end frame.

There is a picture associated with the above error that shows a daisy-

chain 3-frame Multi-frame cable connection.

Error communicating on the network

This message will be accompanied with the specific host that is

experiencing errors, with a messaged passed up from the low level

network.

Multi-frame: Required Network not enabled

This message appears if no networking is enabled and Multi-frame is in

the frame.

Multi-frame Network has not been validated

This message is printed on powerup when the cables have never been

tested.

Multi-frame Installation

Because the frame MUST be turned off during module installation, this

help system will not be available. Please refer to the Installation Guide

for the complete installation process when frame power is off. The

following is an overview of Multi-frame installation.

Connecting Mainframes Together

The Multi-frame module is installed into slot 1 in the rear panel of a

16700B or 16702B mainframe. The Multi-frame cable connects the

OUTPUT port of one Multi-frame module to the INPUT port of the

Multi-frame module in the adjacent frame. Frames are connected

OUTPUT to INPUT in a daisy chain until all frames are connected.
