SIMATIC 545/555/575 System Manual
Installing 575 System Hardware
When using the 575 CPU and third-party boards, you must be aware of the
following limitations.
• The 575 CPU VMEbus data strobe timeout is 40 microseconds. The
third-party VMEbus boards must respond to a 575 request in less than
40 microseconds or VMEbus error occurs. Unless the MOVE instruction
was used, this causes a fatal error.
• VMEbus block transfers are not supported. Third-party boards may not
use VMEbus block transfers to or from the CPU shared memory. All
data transfers must be accomplished by VMEbus word or byte
read/write.
• The 575 CPU reserves Address Modifier 2D
16
address 122
16
. Any
attempt to access this address (Read, Write, Read/Modify/Write or
address-only cycle) results in disabling the 575 VMEbus I/O module
outputs.
• The 575 CPU does not perform D32 VMEbus cycles, nor allow D32
VMEbus cycles to or from CPU shared memory. Long word
Read/Modify/Write operations are not indivisible across the backplane.
The Motorolar 68K CAS.L and CAS2 instructions should not have
destinations on the VMEbus.
• The 575 CPU implements the Read-Modify-Write (RMW) cycle by
maintaining control of the VMEbus by using the BBSY signal. This
precludes the use of semaphores residing on dual-ported memory on a
third-party master if the third-party master does not acquire the
VMEbus first, before accessing its dual-ported memory.
• Read and write operations to the Global Configuration Status Registers
in the VMEbus short supervisory address space (VMEbus address
modifier 2D
16
) must be limited to byte transfers on odd addresses only.
The GCSR is a D08(O) slave. Do not use word or long word read or
write operations to access Global Configuration Status Registers. If
these operations are performed, a VMEbus error occurs.
• Accesses (also address-only bus cycles) to VMEbus short supervisory
space (VMEbus address modifier 2D
16
) addresses A16_Base_Address +
(F0
16
...F7
16
) must be avoided. If these operations are performed, the
575 CPUs in the system waste time servicing an unsupported location
monitor interrupt.
Table 4-7 lists the signal mnemonics assigned to each pin in the J1
backplane connector, as defined by the VMEbus standard.
