2.2 Floppy Drive Connector (CN3)
You can attach up to two floppy disk drives to the PCA-6004's
onboard controller. You can use any combination of 5.25" (360 KB / 1.2
MB) and/or 3.5" (720 KB / 1.44/2.88 MB) drives.
The card comes with a 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable. On
one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end
are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. The set on the end (after
the twist in the cable) connects to the A: floppy drive. The set in the
middle connects to the B: floppy drive.
2.3 Parallel Port (CN4)
The parallel port is normally used to connect the CPU card to a printer.
The onboard parallel port can be 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.
The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or
changed to LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.
