C2 - Mouse
This is a standard computer mouse or other pointing device
cable. It is physically attached to the mouse.
→ Cable details on page 67.
C3 - Display
This is a standard display cable. It is often attached to the
display, and terminated in the computer end with a male 15-pin
Delta connector. The cable is normally supplied by the display
manufacturer.
→ Cable details on page 69.
C4 - Printer
The optional printer is connected to the parallel Centronics port.
The cable is normally supplied by the printer manufacturer.
→ Cable details on page 68.
C5 / C6 - AC Power
These are the AC power cables for the computer and the display.
Before applying power, make sure to check the power rating on
the units!
→ Cable details on page 62.
C7 / C8 - EMC ground
Both the display and the computer must be connected to the
ship’s ground.
→ Cable details on page 63.
C9 / C10 - Ethernet
As previously described, it is strongly recommended to equip
the computer with two network adapters. One will be used to
communicate with the General Purpose Transceiver/s), while the
other is used to connect the EK60 system to the ship’s common
network.
Failure to use separate network adapters will cause a heavy
traffic load on the common network. This will inhibit normal
traffic on this network, and degrade the operational capabilities
of the EK60 system.
With only a single GPT in use, use a “cross-over” ethernet cable
between the computer and the GPT. With more than one GPT,
insert an ethernet switch and use “straight” cables.
Note Screened ethernet (CAT5 STP) must be used.
