                   The MBA (Multi Bus Adapter) family is designed as an inter-
          connection method between RC computersystems via the Intel
          Multibus. 
           
          This connection method enables large expansion of systems in
          capacity, performance and in reliability. It also extends the
          repertoire of external devices available to the individual
          systems. 
           
          An important effect of using the widely acknowledged industri
          standard which the Multibus makes out, is the possibility to take
          immediate advantage of non-RC controllers and processors develop-
          ed for this bus. 
           
          The Multibus connection may be viewed as the closest intercon-
          nection medium in a distributed system architecture, where the
          more distant interconnections are made up by CIRCUIT, Ethernet
          and conventional datatransmission links.

          At the present the MBA family contains the members and combina-
          tions: 
           
                                           MBA 601 
                             MBA 201   -   or 
                                           MBA 603 
                                           MBA 601 
                             IFP 701   -   or 
                                           MBA 603 
                                           and 
                             IFP 801   -   MBA 602 
           \f

                      MBA 201 connects to RC3502 
             IFP 701 -        -  RC3600 
             IFP 801 -        -  RC8000

             MBA 602 -        -  -        - slave 
             MBA 603 -        -  -        - master  
              
          In all cases the cable is a 50 lead ribbon-cable of length up to
          12 m (RC8402 S/M/L). 
           
          MBA 601 and MBA 603 are compatible and differ only in that MBA
          601 in contrast to MBA 603 has 32 K bytes on board dual port
          memory plus a memory-write-interrupt feature. MBA 601/603 is
          installed in the Multibus as a master; this requires considera-
          tions to be made about priority and clockgenerators. 
           
          MBA 601 has memory, which is accessible from the Multibus; this
          memory must have assigned an area in the address space of the
          Multibus. This assignment is made at installation time. 
           
          MBA 602 which connects to IFP 801 gives the Multibus access to a
          memory physically located on the IFP 801 board. This memory must
          have assigned an area and a size in the address space of the
          Multibus. This assignment is made at installation time. 
           
          MBA 201 and MBA 701 both give their hosts (RC3502 and RC3600)
          access to most of the address-space on the Multibus via MBA 601
          or MBA 603. 
           
           
1_._1_._1_ _ _ _ _ _M_B_A_ _2_0_1_ 1.1.1
           
          MBA 201 is an RC3502-controller in double Euroboard format. It
          occupies one slot in the RC3502 crate, 8 interrupt levels and all
          memory address-space from a certain threshold and up. The address
          threshold from which MBA responds to all memory addresses as well
          as the first of the eight interrupt levels must be defined and
          set on a switch array at installationtime. 
           \f

         1_._1_._2_ _ _ _ _ _M_B_A_ _6_0_1_ 1.1.2
           
          MBA 601 connects to the Multibus both as a master and a slave. 
           
          As a master MBA 601 addresses memory and I/O devices on the
          Multibus as commanded by the remote MBA. The 64 K highest memory
          addresses are not reachable from the remote MBA, because these
          addresses sent from the remote MBA convert into I/O addressing.
          As a master MBA 601 is also able to respond to interrupts on the
          Interrupt lines of the Multibus and transmit the state of seven
          of them to the remote MBA. 
           
          As a slave MBA 601 gives other masters on the Multibus access to
          the 32 Kbytes of dual port RAM, which is physically located on
          the MBA 601 board. The dual port memory occupies an area in the
          Multibus address space, the location of which is the same when
          seen from the remote MBA as when seen from the Multibus. 
           
          When the remote MBA addresses the dual port memory, the Multibus
          is not affected, and the access is not delayed by the Multibus
          being assigned to another master at this moment, unless this
          other master is accessing the dual port memory simultaneously. 
           
           
1_._1_._3_ _ _ _ _ _M_B_A_ _6_0_3_ 1.1.3
           
          MBA 603 is essentially an MBA 601 without dual port memory.

          Transfer speed between RC3502 and the Multibus does not exeed 400
          K bytes/second in burst operations, provided 16 bit transfers. 
           
          For byte transfers the speed is 200 K bytes/sec. max. 
           
          When single operations or short bursts are to be transferred, the
          capture time for the Multibus must be taken into consideration.
          The capture time may vary from zero to tens of microseconds
          depending on the total Multibus load.

          The following information serves as an aid for installation of an
          RC3502 to Multibus connection. 
           
           
4_._1_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n_ _o_f_ _M_B_A_ _2_0_1_ 4.1
           
          a: Choose which memory modul number to be the threshold for
             memory access on the Multibus, and set the switches
             correspondingly, see subsection 4.4.1. 
              
          b: Select the first of the eight interrupt levels (deviceno's),
             and set the switches correspondingly. 
              
          c: Insert the MBA 201 into the RC3502 crate in a slot to the
             right of all controllers with higher level numbers than the
             numbers selected for the MBA 201 and to the left of all
             controllers having lower level numbers. In other words RC3502
             controllers must be installed in the order of decreasing
             interrupt level numbers from left to right, as seen from the
             front of the crate.

          For both boards the following considerations must be made: 
           
          1. Is the Multibus a 4-slot crate or a 16-slot crate? 
              
             In the first case, stap st4 must be installed, and no free
             slots must exist over the MBA 601/603. 
              
             In the second case, the crate has parallel arbitration, so you
             need not fill up the slots from left to right, but the
             leftmost masters get highest priority. 
              \f

                   2. Is the MBA the first or the only master on the Bus? 
              
             In that case the straps st2 and st3 must be installed,
             otherwise they must be removed. 
              
          3. Strap st1 need never to be installed.

          a. Make the considerations and do the strapping as described
             above. 
              
          b. Select the location of the dual port memory in the Multibus
                      address space, and set the switches accordingly. See subsec-
             tion 4.4.2. 
              
          c. Select on which of the eight interrupt levels, the dual port
             write interrupt is to be received, and strap accordingly. See
             subsection 4.4.2. 
              
          d. Insert the board in the slot, and connect the MBA cable.

          a. Make the considerations and do the strapping as described
             above. 
              
          b. Select the first of the eight I/O addresses, on which the
             outgoing interrupts are to be cleared, and set the switches
             accordingly (see subsection 4.4.3). 
              
          c. Insert the board in the slot and connect the MBA cable.

          which interrupt is to be cleared. 
           
          The remaining are compared with the switch settings to determine
          selection. 
           
          The switches should thus be set corresponding to the choosen I/O
          addresses.

          The straps ST10 to ST17 are used to select the interrupt level to
          transfer the dual port write interrupt. The selected level cannot
          transfer the state of the corresponding Multibus interrupt line. 
           
          All straps are mounted in the B position except the one corres-
          ponding to the selected interrupt level. This strap is mounted in
          the A position. 
           
          The switches S1-S3 determine in increments of 32K, where in the
          Multibus memory address space the on board dual port memory is

          The VDC 201/291 consists of the data paths shown in the block
          diagram.  
           
          The controller communicates with the host cpu through eight words
          in the controller register file, corresponding to the general
          I/O-registers of two interrupt levels. 
           
          The register file is normally used by the controller micropro-
          gram, but whenever the host cpu executes an I/O instruction to
          the controller the data phase of the instruction will be extended
          until the current microinstruction is finished. Then the register
          file will be connected to the cpu-bus and the data phase is
          finished by the controller issuing an XFERACK. The  microprogram
          then continues from where it was stopped and will at a later time
          interrogate the word corresponding to "Write Control" to see if a
          new command has arrived. 
           
          Blocks of data are transferred to/from cpu-memory by micropro-
          grammed DMA. Bytes from the 2652 MPCC are packed into two-byte
          words before a DMAREQuest is issued and the data is written to
          memory. 
           
          Similarly data from memory is read one word at a time and
          unpacked by microprogram. 
           
          The register file contains a buffer description and status infor-
          mation for each of the eight possible terminals connected to the
          line. What is left in the register file is used by the micropro-
          gram as workspace. 
           
          The 2652 MPCC performs zero insertion/deletion and generates and
          checks CRC words in each frame transmitted/received. 
           
          The modem uses an FM modulation in which a mid cell (each cell is
          4 microsec. wide), transistion corresponds to a logic zero.

          A set of microinstructions has been selected by the macrodefini-
          tions as shown in the first part of the program listing. 
           
          A microinstruction may be composed of one or two source text
          lines. 
           
                   If two lines are used then the first line specifies bus-source,
          ALU-operation and destination while the second line controls next
          address generation.

            desired command (and parameters) in the proper memory
            locations. Set Wo registers as follows:  
                        L 00: 0104 
                        L 08: 0200 (1 word command) or 
                              0400 (4 word command) 
                        L 09: 0300 
            (Stop CPU before changing Wo registers) CPU may then be single
            stepped or run at full speed.
