installed in slot 0. It also controls the assertion of the MODID signals. This register
conforms to the VXIbus Mainframe Extender specification.
Bit Mnemonic Description
15-14 1 Reserved
These bits are reserved. They return 11 (binary)
when the VMIDR is read. Any value can be
written to these bits when writing the VMIDR.
13 OUTEN MODID Output Enable
Writing a 1 to this bit enables the VXI-MXI-2
module’s MODID drivers. When this bit is
cleared, the VXI-MXI-2 does not drive the
MODID lines. You should set this bit only when
the VXI-MXI-2 is installed in slot 0. This bit is
cleared by a hard reset and is not affected by a
soft reset.
12-0 MODID[12:0] MODID Lines
These bits return the status of the 13 VXIbus
MODID lines when read. When OUTEN is set,
setting one of these bits drives the corresponding
MODID line high, while clearing one of these
bits drives the corresponding MODID line low.
These bits are not affected by hard and soft
resets.
