MVME6100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800D58H)

3.6 Remote Start

As described in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User's Manual, listed in Appendix C, Related

Documentation, remote start allows the user to obtain information about the target board,

download code and/or data, modify memory on the target, and execute a downloaded

program. These transactions occur across the VMEbus in the case of the MVME6100. MOTLoad

uses one of four mailboxes in the Tsi148 VME controller as the inter-board communication

address (IBCA) between the host and the target.

CR/CSR slave addresses configured by MOTLoad are assigned according to the installation slot

in the backplane, as indicated by the VME64 Specification. For reference, the following values

are provided:

For further details on CR/CSR space, please refer to the VME64 Specification, listed in Appendix

C, Related Documentation.

The MVME6100 uses a Discovery II for its VME bridge. The offsets of the mailboxes in the

Discovery II are defined in the Discovery II User Manual, listed in Appendix C, Related

Documentation, but are noted here for reference:
