Chapter 2 Connecting Peripherals

2.1 IDE Device (CN1 and Rear I/O)

The MIC-3358 provides two IDE (Integrated Device Electronics) chan- nels via CN1 connector in MIC-3358 or via the J3 connector to the rear transition board (RIO-3309C). CN1 connector support one 2.5" IDE HDD in MIC-3358 and two IDE drives can be connected to Secondary IDE connector (CN19) in the rear transition board. If two drives are installed on one channel, remember to set one as the master and the other one as the slave. You may do this by setting the jumpers on the drives. Refer to the documentation that came with your drive for more informa- tion. A jumper diagram usually appears on the topside of a hard disk drive.

Warning: Plug the other end of the cable into the drive with pin #1 on the cable corresponding to pin #1 on the drive. Improper connection will damage the drive.

2.2 VGA Display Connector (CN9 or Rear I/O)

The MIC-3358 provides a VGA chipset (ATI Rage XL) built-in display for high performance application. The CN9 connector of MIC-3358 and CN7 connector of rear I/O board are both DB-15 connector for VGA monitor input. The system monitor display is able to be selected by jumper JP2.

2.3 PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse Connector (Rear I/O)

The MIC-3358 provides Keyboard/Mouse support via J5 connector to the rear transition board which builds in one PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse connec- tor (CN12). The package - one Y-type PS/2 keyboard/mouse cable - pro- vides two transferred connectors. Since these two connectors are identical, please, follow the icons on the cable to plug the keyboard and the mouse into their correct connectors.
