Communicating with a VM600 MPS
INSTALLATION
1.6 Communicating with a VM600 MPS
The VM600 MPS may be configured in several ways, depending on the hardware installed in
the VM600 rack (ABE04x). Figure 1-13 shows the various possibilities for communicating
with the system. In all cases, one of the VM600 MPSx software packages (MPS1 or MPS2)
is required to perform the configuration.
Figure 1-13 (a) shows the simplest VM600 MPS configuration. This is a stand-alone rack, that
is, one not containing a CPUM card. In this case, each MPC4 or AMC8 card in the rack must
be programmed individually from a personal computer over an RS-232 link
(see 1.7 Connecting to a computer).
Figure 1-13 (b) shows a rack containing a CPUM modular CPU card. An Ethernet link may
be established between the personal computer and the VM600 MPS via this card. The
connection is made on the front panel of the CPUM, hence at the front of the rack.
Communication between the CPUM and the MPC4 / IOC4T or AMC8 / IOC8T card pair takes
place over a VME bus on the rack backplane.
Figure 1-13 (c) shows a rack containing a CPUM modular CPU card and the corresponding
IOCN input/output card. A connection may be established between the personal computer
and the VM600 MPS via the IOCN. The connection is made on the IOCN panel, hence at the
rear of the rack. Communication between the CPUM / IOCN card pair and the MPC4 / IOC4T
or AMC8 / IOC8T card pair takes place over a VME bus on the rack backplane.
