USB port cables (optional)
IrDA Connector
The 586TXD system board is
equipped with an IrDA connector
for wireless connectivity between
your computer and peripheral de-
vices. Connect your IrDA cable to
connector U32 on the 586TXD sys-
tem board. Make sure “Onboard IR
Controller” in the Integrated Periph-
erals setup of the Award BIOS is
Enabled. Carefully read this section
in Chapter 3 of this manual for in-
structions prior to using your IrDA
device.
Connecting the USB Ports
As an option, one card-edge bracket mounted with two USB port cables
may be provided with the system board. Connect the cable to JP8 and
JP9 on the system board. The USB port cables can be inserted only if
pin 1 of the cable (red wire) is aligned with pin 1 of JP8 and JP9. Pin 5
of JP9 has been removed and the hole in the USB cable connector,
which corresponds to pin 5, has been plugged to prevent incorrectly
inserting the connector. Mount the card-edge bracket to the system
chassis.
