PARALLEL-PORT INTERFACE
The
cool
MONSTER/S
incorporates an IBM XT/AT compatible parallel port. It supports unidirectional,
EPP and ECP operating modes.
16.1
Connector
The parallel port is available through Connector X7 (26 pins). To have the signals available on a
standard, parallel-interface connector DSUB-25, an adapter cable is required, which is available
from KONTRON (KAB-DSUB25-1, Part Number 96015-0000-00-0).
The following table shows the pin-out as well as necessary connections for a DSUB-25 adapter.

(*)
To protect external power lines of peripheral devices, make sure that
-- the wires have the right diameter to withstand maximum available current
-- the enclosure of the peripheral device fulfils fire-protection requirements
-- of IEC/EN 60950.
To find the location of the parallel port, please see the Appendix E: Connector Layout chapter.
