Connecting Peripherals to the EPC-7
The final step of installation is connecting peripherals, typically a video display and
keyboard, but also perhaps a mouse, modem, printer, etc. Unless otherwise noted, all
connectors are compatible with those found on IBM-compatible desktop PCs.
Detailed pin assignments are described in Chapter 6.
Monitor
The EPC-7 contains no built-in connection for a monitor. Typically the EPC-7
contains an EXM-13A video controller for connection to an analog VGA monitor.
Use of the EXM-13A is summarized below. Consult the EXM-13A reference manual
for further details.
Monitors that can be used with the EXM-13A are VGA-compatible monitors (i.e.,
those compatible with the IBM PS/2 and with PC VGA add-in cards) and multiscan
(multifrequency or "multisync") monitors. Refer to the EXM-13A manual for more
information. If you cannot mate your monitor to the 15-pin connector on the EXM
because you have a cable with a 9-pin connector, either (1) you have a TTL monitor
that is not compatible with VGA or (2) you have a multisync monitor (which are
usually shipped with 9- and 15-pin cables or adapters) and are using the wrong cable.
If using a multiscan monitor, make sure to set the monitor's switch to analog (not
TTL).
Keyboard
The front panel contains a keyboard connector compatible with that of the IBM PS/2.
An adapter cable is provided so that keyboards with the larger five-pin PC/AT
connectors can be used.
