Hi Guy,

This is done by using the APS "Doodle" card (I forget the part number).  The serial line to the MVME-2700 needs to be split, so that it goes to both the MVME-2700 and the Doodle card.  Typing ^Y^Y^Y causes the Doodle card to do a VME bus reset.  I have lots of spare Doodle cards if you would like one.

Subject: Remote reset of MVME-2700 possible through serial console

A quick question,

Does anyone know if it is possible to reset an MVME-2700 card using its serial console port?   I have a card that is failing to boot after attempting to load the vxWorks image.  I seem to remember it was possible with the MVME-167 cards, but is it possible with the MVME-2700, and, if so, what ctrl character should I send
