PPC-E5 Configuration
Jumper & Connector Descriptions
The PPC-E5 comes factory configured. In the event that jumpers need to be verified or modified this
section provides the information required, including instructions on setting jumpers and connecting
peripherals, switches and indicators. Be sure to read all the safety precautions before you begin any
configuration procedure. See Appendix A for connector pinouts and Appendix B for Jumper Settings.

Powering Up the PPC-E5
The PPC-E5’s power connector (CN8) is a standard floppy, four-pin type connector commonly found on
most PC type power supplies. While the PPC-E5’s logic only requires 5 volts DC, the LCD backlight
inverter requires 12 volts DC to operate. Both of these voltages are found on the floppy type connector.
The pinout for the CN8 power connector is as follows:
Pin Signal
1 +5
V
2 GND
3 GND
4
+12 V
Remember before powering-up the PPC-E5 make sure the memory SIMM and the DOC are firmly seated
and check any cables to make sure that plugged on correctly in relation to pin 1.
Note: The PPC-E5 requires less than 2 amps typical which is not enough current to load the main
switcher in some larger PC power supplies (this can be verified with a voltmeter measuring the 5 volt
supply). If this is the case you can try to load the power supply by adding 5 volt devices, or order a
compatible power supply from EMAC.
