There are two scenarios for the positioning of a processor module on a rack:
Positioning a standard format processor module
A standard format processor module is always installed on the TSX RKY.. rack with address 0 and in position 00 or 01 according to whether the rack is equipped with a standard or double format power supply module.
Rack with standard format power supply module: TSX PSY 2600/1610.
In this case, the processor module will be placed in position 00 (preferred position) or position 01. If the latter, position 00 must be unoccupied.
Illustration
Rack with double format power supply module: TSX PSY 3610/5500/5520/8500.
In this case, the processor will be placed in position 01, as the power supply module occupies two positions (PS and 00).
Illustration
Positioning a double format processor module
A double format processor module is always installed on the TSX RKY.. rack with address 0 and in positions 00 and 01 or 01 and 02 according to whether the rack is equipped with a standard or double format power supply module.
Rack with standard format power supply module: TSX PSY 2600/1610.
In this case, the processor module will be installed in positions 00 and 01 (preferred position) or in positions 01 and 02. If the latter, position 00 must be unoccupied.
Illustration
Rack with double format power supply module: TSX PSY 3610/5500/5520/8500.
In this case, the processor will be placed in positions 01 and 02, as the power supply module occupies two positions (PS and 00).
Illustration
NOTE: The rack on which the processor is installed always has address 0.
