Making Connections
Parallel Port – with standard parallel port
The PC Link cable provided with your I-Mix unit is unique. It is fitted with a parallel port adapter
for your PC on one end, and a Data Link adapter for the I-Mix on the other. If you want to
connect to a USB port on your computer you must use the optional USB-1 parallel-to-USB
converter. These converters are custom made for the I-Mix and can be ordered from Sima. See
Accessories for order information. To connect the I-Mix to a USB port on your PC, refer to page
