A device configured for installation in Slot 0 of a VXIbus
mainframe or Slot 1 of a VMEbus chassis. This device is unique
in the VMEbus system in that it performs the VMEbus System
Controller functions, including clock sourcing and arbitration for
data transfers across the backplane. Installing such a device into
any other slot can damage the device, the VMEbus/VXIbus
backplane, or both.
