CURTISS-WRIGHT HARDWARE INSTALLATION
826448 VERSION 5 MARCH 2015 PROPRIETARY 3-3
INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES
Before installing the CHAMP-AV8 in your chassis, please take a moment to review the following
items and planning considerations:
INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
Make sure you have the following items before proceeding with the installation:
• The CHAMP-AV8 board
• A VPX chassis with P0 connector. The chassis must be capable of providing +12 Volts on
the VITA 46 VS1 and VS2 rails and +3.3 Volts on the VITA 46 3.3V_AUX rail. VS3 is not
used (normally would be +5 Volts). For XMC usage, the chassis may also provide
+12V_AUX and -12V_AUX (dependent on XMC requirements). An air-cooled chassis
must provide a minimum inlet air flow of 20CFM for L0 variants or 24 CFM for L100 var-
iants, to ensure adequate cooling.
• A front panel cable, part number CBL-462-FPL-000, attached to a computer with a ter-
minal emulator program capable of operating at 115200 baud. The front panel cable is
used for air-cooled variants only.
• Standard Ethernet cables with RJ-45 connectors.
• The Board Support Package CD-ROM
UNPACK AND CONFIGURE THE CARD
Ensure that you complete the pre-installation tasks described in Chapter 2 of this manual and
the pre-installation tasks described in the User’s Manuals for any XMC module you need to
install on the CHAMP-AV8.
INSTALL THE XMC MODULE ON THE BASECARD
If the XMC module is not already installed on the basecard, install it on your basecard using
the appropriate mounting kit.
Please refer to “XMC Module Installation Requirements” on page 2-4 for important
information concerning the factors you need to consider before mounting an XMC Module
on your CHAMP-AV8.
