INSTALLATION
1.5.2 Installation restrictions
Table 1-1 shows the installation restrictions that apply to VM600 racks (ABE04x).
When a VM600 MPS is installed for the first time, the pairs of MPC4 / IOC4T cards and
AMC8 / IOC8T cards within it must be configured according to their intended application.
The IOC4T and IOC8T cards have adjustable hardware elements (micro-switches and
jumpers) that have to be set up before insertion in the rack. The elements on IOC4T and
IOC8T cards are normally configured in the factory before delivery of the system.
NOTE: If you are unsure how to change micro-switches and jumpers, then please contact
your local Meggitt representative. Failure to do this may invalidate your warranty.
NOTE: Information on card configurations can be found in the VM600 machinery
protection system (MPS) hardware manual.

Notes
An MPC4 card must have an IOC4T card installed directly behind it in the rack.
An AMC8 card must have an IOC8T card installed directly behind it in the rack.
An XMC16, XMV16 or XMVS16 card must have an XIO16T card installed directly behind it in the rack.
One or two RPS6U rack power supplies can be installed in a VM600 system rack. A rack can have two RPS6U
rack power supplies installed for different reasons: in order to support rack power supply redundancy or in order
to supply power to the cards (see 1.4 Connecting power).
