Abstract

The VMS bus was conceived as a high-speed serial bus for passing short, urgent messages within a VME backplane. It has been extended to allow for communication between two or more VME backplanes or ‘crates’, but it can also be used to link computers with dissimilar buses. The paper compares VMS with other serial bus standards, and shows how transmission errors on the bus can be detected. A method for linking the STEbus to VME systems using the VMS bus is described; this method can be extended to link other buses such as the IBM PC bus.
