7 Steps to P5000HX Operation

Model P5000HX Series CPU User’s Manual

Step 5 - Attach Peripherals to Connectors

Overview

Connectors are also used to connect external components to
the P5000HX, but, unlike headers, connectors are located on
the I/O bracket at the end of the P5000HX board (which will
make them accessible after you install the board). These
include:

•

a serial port connector (“SERIAL PORT 1”) and

•

a parallel port connector.

Serial Port 1

As mentioned earlier, serial ports allow you to connect serial
devices (a serial mouse, serial printers, etc.) to the P5000HX
via appropriate serial cables. Serial ports are also known as
UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) ports.

Note: The P5000HX uses 16550 UART’s.

SERIAL 1 is a 9-pin connector located on the edge of the card
(on the I/O bracket). This means that you can access
SERIAL 1 through the back of the chassis after the P5000HX
is installed.

Parallel Port

The parallel port (IEEE1284, ECP/EPP/bidirectional) is nor-
mally used for connecting a printer to the P5000HX. This port
is a 25-pin connector located on the I/O bracket. Connect the
printer cable to this port for printer operation.
