2.12 Keyboard and PS/2 mouse connector
(CN17)
The CPC-2400 board provides a keyboard connector. A 6-pin mini-
DIN connector (CN17) on the board mounting bracket. The card
comes with an adapter to convert from the 6-pin mini-DIN connector
to a standard DIN connector and to a PS/2 mouse connector.
2.13 ISA slot (CN19 ~ 21)
The 16-bit ISA slot are used for connecting the CPC-2400 to an ISA
expansion card.
2.14 Enhanced IDE connector (CN12)
You can attach two IDE (Integrated Device Electronics) drives to the
CPC-2400. The CPC-2400 has an EIDE connector, CN12. Wire
number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.
Connect one end to connector CN12 on the CPU card. Make sure that
the red (or blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector (on the
right side). See "Board Layout: Connector location" in Chapter 2 for
help in finding the connector.
Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect in either position
on the cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the
master and one as the slave. You do this by setting the jumpers on the
drives. If you use just one drive, you should set it as the master. See
the documentation that came with your drive for more information.
Connect the first hard drive to the other end of the cable. Wire 1 on
the cable should also connect to pin 1 on the hard drive connector,
which is labeled on the drive circuit board. Check the documentation
that came with the drive for more information.
Connect the second drive, as described above, to CN12.
