NTRODUCTION
When a CT-310A mainframe is unpacked from its shipping carton, the contents should include the
following items:
(1) CT-310A Five-Slot Chassis
(1) CT-310A User’s Manual (this manual)
(1) Power Cord
All components should be immediately inspected for damage upon receipt of the unit.
The first segment of this section is dedicated to setting certain features, such as remote power on
and fan speed selection, which should be set before installation takes place. Following this
segment, the various rack mount options are presented with installation instructions.

ACKPLANE
The CT-310A mainframe has a jumper-less, auto-configurable backplane using active-automatic
daisy chaining for the VME Interrupt acknowledge and bus grant daisy chain signal lines. This
eliminates the need to configure manually the backplane and insures that these signals are
properly configured at all times.
The power cord is the only way to disconnect the CT-310A mainframe from ac power.
Therefore, the power cord must be accessible to the operator at all times. When the CT-
310A mainframe is mounted in a system rack, the power cord need not be accessible since
the rack must have its own disconnect device.
Le cordon de secteur est la seule manière de démonter l’unité centrale de CT-310A du courant
alternatif Par conséquent, le cordon de secteur doit être accessible à l’opérateur à tout
moment. Quand l’unité centrale de CT-310A est montée dans un support de système, le cordon
de secteur n’a pas besoin d’être accessible puisque le support doit avoir son propre dispositif de
débranchement.
