You must ensure that the SCSI bus is terminated properly. The P2 adapter and the MVME712M module have sockets for terminating the SCSI lines. Both the P2 adapter and the MVME712M use three 8-pin Single In-line Package (SIP) resistors. Refer to the installation instructions in Installing the MVME712M, in this cahpter, for details on use of the terminators.

If you wish to use your own cable for the P2 signals from J2 on the Note P2 adapter board to J2 on the MVME712M, note that the cable should be kept as short as possible. Any cable over 3 feet is likely to cause signal problems.
Installing the MVME712M Module and P2 Adapter Board Connecting modules while power is applied may result in damage to components on the module. Caution Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
8. Connect the power cable to the power source and turn the unit on. 9. The yellow LED (DS1) on the MVME712M should be lit (the LED can be seen through the opening in the front panel). If not lit, then either a cabling problem exists, a fuse is blown, or both.
