PCM-9584 User Manual 18
2.9 Parallel port connector (CN17)
Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The
PCM-9584 includes a multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port accessed
via CN17 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter
cable if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a
26-pin connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.
The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to
LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.
The parallel port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.
You can select ECP/EPP/SPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.
2.10 Keyboard and PS/2 mouse connector (CN15)
The PCM-9584 board provides a keyboard connector that supports both a
keyboard and a PS/2 style mouse. In most cases, especially in embedded
applications, a keyboard is not used. If the keyboard is not present, the
standard PC/AT BIOS will report an error or fail during power-on self-
test (POST) after a reset. The PCM-9584’s BIOS standard setup menu
allows you to select “All, But Keyboard” under the “Halt On” selection.
This allows no-keyboard operation in embedded system applications,
without the system halting under POST.
2.11 Front Panel Connector (CN5)
Next, you may want to install external switches to monitor and control the
PCM-9584. These features are optional: install them only if you need
them. The Front Panel connector (CN5) is a 14-pin male, dual in-line
header. It provides connections for a hard disk access indicator, LAN
Act., LAN Link, hardware reset, ATX power ON/OFF switch connector,
and power on indicator.
2.11.1 Power & HDD LED (pin 1-4 of CN5)
The HDD LED indicator for hard disk access is an active low signal (24
mA sink rate). Power supply activity LED indicator.
2.11.2 Reset switch (pin 13-14 of CN5)
If you install a reset switch, it should be an open single pole switch.
Momentarily pressing the switch will activate a reset. The switch should
be rated for 10 mA, 5 V.
