Appendix E Configuring a Two-Frame System

VXIbus Logical Address

Frame A contains logical addresses in the range of 0 to 7F hex. The

Resource Manager must be logical address 0. The VXI-MXI-2 has

logical address 1, which is the default logical address. Figure E-4a

shows the switch setting for logical address 1 on a C-size VXI-MXI-2.

See Figure E-5a if you have a VXI-MXI-2/B. Ensure that no other

devices in that frame have either of these logical addresses. In addition,

no devices in Frame A should have logical addresses of 80 hex or

above (except for FF hex).

Frame B contains logical addresses from 80 hex to FE hex. The

VXI-MXI-2 in Frame B is logical address 80 hex, as shown in

Figure E-4b for a C-size VXI-MXI-2, or in Figure E-5b for a

VXI-MXI-2/B. Make sure that no other devices in Frame B have

logical addresses of 80 hex or below.
