    33Chassis Manager (CM) is organized around RCM3700 module and comes in two incarnations:

    2323The CM has two components:  a CM PCI card that connects directly to the host, and a NodeIDBox that permanently mounts on a fixture at each grid position.  The PCI CM block diagram is shown in Figure 5. 
     
    2727The physical form-factor for the Chassis Manager is a 2U PCI card measuring approximately 4.75 x 2.5 in.  The Node ID box is on a board measuring approximately 2.25 x 1.75 in.  Appropriate sockets permit the RCM3700 module to plug directly into the PCI card or optionally through a 10 pin ribbon cable for remote mounting.

    5252[[Image(DS1780.jpg,align=right,title="DS1780 Functional Block Diagram",200)]] Voltage and temperature monitoring is achieved using the I2C-based Dallas Semiconductor DS-1780.  This device is a 24-pin direct-to-digital chassis system monitor.  It is capable of monitoring ambient temperature, six power supply voltages, and the speed of two fans.  Fan speed can also be controlled from this device using an internal 8-bit ADC.

    8585The 256 x 8 PCF8570 I2C RAM device is included in the CM design for future use, and is not used on the initial CM boards.  Its design consideration addresses inter-processor communication between the CM and the Host node.

     87==== I2C Address Map ====
    8888The address assignments of the CM I2C components were selected to avoid address collision with the same class of device on a host system.  While this can not be guaranteed for all host systems, those hosts that are likely to be connected to a CM were considered.
