24 Second-Generation Channel Interface Processor (CIP2) Installation and Configuration
What Is the CIP2
CIP2 DRAM Configurations
Each CIP2 model is available in the following configurations of dynamic random-access memory
(DRAM) single in-line memory modules (SIMMs):
• 32-MB DRAM—MEM-CIP-32M
• 32-MB DRAM—MEM-CIP-32M=
• 64-MB DRAM—MEM-CIP-64M(=)
• 128-MB DRAM—MEM-CIP-128M(=)
Note MEM-CIP-32M is the default memory configuration that ships on the CIP2.
MEM-CIP-32M= is a spare memory option, which is intended for CIP2 cards ordered without
DRAM.
All CIP2 DRAM upgrade products ship with the configuration note Upgrading DRAM on the CIP2
(Document Number 78-3915-xx, where xx is the latest version of the document). This configuration
note is also available on the Documentation CD-ROM.
CIP2 DRAM can be upgraded in the field by Cisco-certified service personnel only.
CIP2 LED Indicators and Sequences
Following are the functions of the CIP2 LEDs. (See Figure 12.)
Figure 12 CIP2 LED Indicators
• Enabled—Indicates that the CIP2 has been enabled for operation by the system.
• Present—Indicates that the ECA or PCA adapter has been detected by the CIP2.
• Loaded—Indicates that the ECA or PCA adapter firmware has been completely loaded.
• Signal—For the ECA, this LED indicates that the Sync signal has been detected. For the PCA,
this LED indicates that the Operational Out signal has been detected. Note that even though a
system reset and selective reset both cause the operational out signal to drop, the signal LED will
still be on during those sequences.
• Online—For the ECA, this LED indicates that an establish-logical-path request has been
received from the channel. For the PCA, this LED indicates that the PCA is ready to establish
connection to the host channel.
