Dell GX240 Line-InJack, Line-OutJack, Microphone Jack, Serial Connectors, Keyboard Connector

Line-In Jack

This jack is used to attach record/playback devices such as cassette players, CD players, and VCRs. Connect the line-out cable from any of these devices to the line-in jack.

Line-Out Jack

This jack is used to attach computer speakers. This jack is amplified, so speakers with integrated amplifiers are not required. Connect the audio cable from the speakers to this jack.

Microphone Jack

This jack is used to attach a standard personal computer microphone. Connect the audio cable from the microphone to the microphone jack.

Serial Connectors

Default port designations: COM1 for port 1 and COM2 for port 2. You can reassign the serial connector’s designation if you add an expansion card containing a serial connector using this designation.

If you set the computer’s serial connectors to Auto in system setup and add an expansion card containing a serial connector configured to a specific designation, the computer automatically maps (assigns) the integrated ports to the appropriate COM setting as necessary.

Before you add a card with a serial connector, check the documentation that accompanied your software to make sure that the software can be mapped to the new COM port designation.

Keyboard Connector

Attach the keyboard cable to the 6-pin connector on the back panel.
