PCA-6180 User's Manual
The parallel port is normally used to connect the CPU card to a printer.
The PCA-6180 includes an onboard parallel port, accessed through a
26-pin flat-cable connector, CN4. The card comes with an adapter cable
which lets you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The cable has a 26-
pin connector on one end and a DB-25 connector on the other,
mounted on a retaining bracket. The bracket installs at the end of an
empty slot in your chassis, giving you access to the connector.
To install the bracket, find an empty slot in your chassis. Unscrew the
plate that covers the end of the slot. Screw in the bracket in place of
the plate. Next, attach the flat-cable connector to CN4 on the CPU card.
Wire 1 of the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray. Make
sure that wire 1 corresponds to pin 1 of CN4. Pin 1 is on the upper right
side of CN4.
2.5 SCSI Connector (CN5)
The PCA-6180 has a 68-pin, dual in-line connector for Ultra 160 SCSI
devices. Connection of SCSI devices requires special attention,
especially when determining the last drive on the SCSI chain. Refer to
Chapter 9 and your device's operating manual for detailed installation
advice.
