B1.3 LPT1 Piggyback
Figure B1.3 illustrates the construction of the stand-alone IPB-FPE12 piggyback and the upperside
location of the J13 connector. The same mechanical construction applies to the integrated ver-
sion. Care should be taken to ensure that pin 1 of J13 on the CPU base board is linked by an
appropriate length of flex cable to pin 1 on the ICP-HD-3 piggyback. To help with the orientation,
the connector flanks that are blue indicate the blue face of the flex-cable. Unmarked flanks indi-
cate the metallic connection of the flex-cable. Also, pin 1 has been highlighted by a red triangle.
Note:
Damage to the CPU, hard-disk carrier
board or the piggyback may result if
the flex cable is positioned incorrectly.
Inova will not accept responsibility for
negligent actions!

The physical connection of the IPB-
FPE12 is electrically identical regard-
less of the nature of connection
(stand-alone or integrated!)
