The following are manufacturer notes for informational purposes regarding SPARC 10 System Boards:
Ethernet Controller Notes
- The AM7990 is installed on CPU <=501-2365-03.
- The AM7990 or AM79C90 is installed on CPU >=501-2365-04.
- The AM7990 is installed on CPU 501-2774-xx.
SPARC Module Notes
- Do NOT mix SPARC modules of different types or speeds.
- OBP 2.12 is required if two SM40s are installed.
- The 501-2219 SM40 supports single processor mode only.
- The 501-2358 SM40 supports dual processor mode.
- When adding a second SPARC module, disable the TERMPWR option on internal disk drives with PTC protection. Failure to disable the disk drive TERMPWR option may cause power supply over-current shutdown during power-up if SCSI cable 530-1847-02 is installed.
- The 100MHz and 125MHz hyperSPARC Modules require OBP 2.19.
- SuperSPARC II modules require OBP 2.22.
- The 150MHz hyperSPARC Module requires OBP 2.25.
Hardware System Notes
- Use 16MB SIMM 501-1785, 501-2273, or 501-2479.
- Use 64MB SIMM 501-1930 or 501-2480.
- Install the highest capacity SIMM in Slot 0 under Solaris 1.x.
- The 270-1733-14 FAB has BABT approval for ISDN use in the UK.
- The 270-1733-14 FAB has BABT approval for X.25 use in the UK.
- The Maxtor 207MB Disk Drive requires firmware level 4.22 if it is connected to the on-board SCSI bus.
- The +12V PTC is connected to Power Connector J1501, Pin-1.
GT and ZX Configuration Notes
- The GT and ZX Options are not supported on system boards with MSI Rev A 100-2905-02. The ASIC is marked LSI Logic L1A6396.
- The GT and ZX Options are supported on system boards with MSI Rev B 100-2905-03. The ASIC is marked LSI Logic L1B7596.
- MSI Rev B was installed by manufacturing on the following 0MB CPUs:
501-2274-06 Rev 50
501-1733-16 Rev 52
501-2259-05 Rev 52
501-2365-01 Rev 50 - MSI Rev B is not installed during the repair process unless the ASIC is defective. Repaired boards may or may not have MSI Rev B.
- Picking is disabled when the ZX is used with MSI Rev A.
- A replacement CPU, order number UG-S10-MTHRBOARD, is available for customers who purchase ZX as a standalone option for older SS10 systems.
Internal SCSI Bus Notes
- Disable the TERMPWR option on disk drives installed in the SS10.
- SCSI bus TERMPWR is grounded on internal cable 530-1847-02. Failure to disable the TERMPWR option on disk drives with PTC protection may cause power supply over-current shutdown during power-up if SCSI cable 530-1847-02 is installed.
- SCSI bus TERMPWR is grounded on internal cable 530-1847-02. Internal disk drives with fused TERMPWR protection will blow the fuse if the disk drive TERMPWR option is enabled. The TERMPWR option is not needed by the internal SCSI bus.
- TERMPWR on the internal SCSI bus is not connected to TERMPWR on the external SCSI bus.
- Regulated termination at J0107 on the internal cable receives power from the SS10 CPU and is not connected to Pin-26 on the disk drive.
- The inner surface of the SS10 chassis is conductive. Use grommet 330-1390, or bracket 340-2939 with grommet 330-1717 and grommet 330-1390 to mount an internal disk drive. Damage to the disk drive may occur if this mounting hardware is not used.
