Basic connections

The system unit, PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, and monitor constitute the basic system. Before connecting any other peripherals, connect these peripherals first to test if the system is running properly.

Connecting the PS/2 keyboard

Plug the PS/2 keyboard cable into the PS/2 keyboard port (purple port) located on the rear panel of your system.

Note: If you are using a USB keyboard, plug the mouse cable into either USB ports located on the front panel of your system.
