VXIbus Slot 0/Non-Slot 0
The VXI-MXI-2 is configured at the factory to automatically detect if
it is installed in Slot 0 of a VXIbus mainframe. With automatic Slot 0
detection, you can install the VXI-MXI-2 into any VXIbus slot.
You can manually configure the VXI-MXI-2 for either Slot 0 or Non-
Slot 0 operation by defeating the automatic-detection circuitry. Use the
three-position jumper W2 to select automatic Slot 0 detection, Slot 0, or
Non-Slot 0 operation. Figure 3-3 shows these three settings.
