Several different cases may arise when installing an X-Bus extension module:
-
installation of a master module on the Premium station,
-
installation of a master module on the Atrium station,
-
installation of a slave module.
Installation of a Master Module on the Premium Station
The master module must be installed:
-
on the rack which supports the processor (rack with address 00), this rack being located on the main X-Bus segment,
-
in a free position in this rack.
The table below indicates the various scenarios according to the format of the power supply and the processor:
|
Scenario
|
Illustration
|
|
Rack with address 0 with single format power supply and processor:
-
power supply in position PS,
-
processor must be in position 01,
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack (position 00 is forbidden).
|
|
|
Rack with address 0 with double format power supply module and single format processor:
-
power supply in positions PS and 00,
-
processor must be in position 01,
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack.
|
|
|
Address rack 0 with single format power supply module and double format processor:
-
power supply in position PS,
-
processor must be in positions 01 and 02,
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack (position 00 is forbidden).
|
|
|
Rack with address 0 with double format power supply module and processor:
-
power supply in positions PS and 00,
-
processor must be in positions 01 and 02,
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack.
|
|
Installation of a Master Module on the Atrium Station,
As with a Premium station, the master module must be installed:
-
on the rack which supports the processor virtually (rack with address 0), this rack being located on the main X-Bus segment,
-
in any position on this rack apart from the position dedicated to the power supply module and that which is virtually occupied by the processor (possibility of using slot 00 for a single format power supply).
Constraint:
The virtual position of the processor (unoccupied position) must always be position 01.
The table below indicates the various scenarios according to the format of the power supply and the processor:

|
Rack with address 0 with double format power supply module:
-
power supply in position PS,
-
virtual position of the processor must be position 01 (position always unoccupied),
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack.
|

Installation of a Slave Module
The slave module can be installed on one of the racks of the bus extension segment and in any position on this rack apart from the one which is dedicated to the power supply module.
The table below indicates the various scenarios according to the format of the power supply and the processor:

Rack with double format power supply:
-
power supply in positions PS and 00,
-
TSX REY 200 module in one of the available positions in the rack.
