-CUPID+====== CUPID µTCA Settings ====== 
 + 
 + 
 +**CUPID = Control Unit for Profile and Image Data** 
 + 
 +The microTCA based DAQ for this type of measurements consists of: 
 + 
 +  * Native R2 6 Slot MTCA.4 chassis 
 +  * CCT AM G64 Xeon CPU 
 +  * Vadatech AMC217 GbE switch 
 +  * Nat-Phys-80 MCH 
 +  
 +To optimize the setup following configuration settings were applied: 
 + 
 +on Vadatech AMC217: 
 +  * connect via local LAN (192.168.40.230) on web browser 
 +  * disable spanning tree 
 +  * disable Port 1 on mTCA backplane 
 + 
 +on NAT MCH: 
 +  * provide web access via console (DHCP on) 
 +  * via web access disable port 1 and activate Port VLAN 
 +  * disable in Port VLAN all connections from AMC1-6 to FRT1 and CPU1 
 +  * enable only link between FRT1 and CPU1 and UPDB and CPU1. 
 +  * A working config can be loaded {{ :projects:cupid:nat_mch_running_cfg.txt |here}}. 
 + 
 +Example Port VLAN setting: 
 + 
 +{{:projects:cupid:mch_config_cupid_amc217.jpg?400|}} 
 + 
 +====== MCH Hub Module AVR Update ====== 
 + 
 +Please check on MCH web access under Board Information, Hub Module Information, the Microcontroller Version number. It should be V1.8 or higher. 
 +There has been a bug with V1.7 which led to complete PCIe Links loss after setting VLAN parameter, e.g. by loading the nat_mch_running_cfg.txt file.  
 +To update the AVR for the Hub Module use: 
 + 
 +Update via Web access: {{ :projects:cupid:mch_pcie_webupdate.tar |V1.8}} 
 +Use the MCH web access, there Update MCH. Upload the tar ball. 
 + 
 + 
 +Update via script:  
 + 
 +The hex file for V1.8 is offered at fsl00c tftp server under /lobi/firmware/mch_pcie_x80_avr_pcb1_2_v1_8.hex 
 +An example script also can be found in the same folder via asl740:/common/tftp/lobi/firmware which needs to be edited before usage. 
 +The script requires telnet access without pw to the MCH. 
 + 
 +Update manually via CLI on MCH: 
 + 
 +Have the {{ :projects:cupid:mch_pcie_x80_avr_pcb1_2_v1_8.hex |hex}} file. 
 +Go to MCH command line interface (CLI) and enter diag. 
 +The select 11, 2, 3. 
 +Enter 140.181.134.236:/lobi/firmware/mch_pcie_x80_avr_pcb1_2_v1_8.hex 
 + 
 +Reboot MCH. Check new Firmware version under web access/ board information /Hub module information
