D1.2 IPB-RIO-HD-LPT-(FLEX)

Similar to the IPB-RIO-HD-FD, this transition module recovers the embedded IDE and LPT signals from the CompactPCI backplane and presents them in a form ready for device connection. This time, instead of a standard IDE header, the IDE device is connected using the familiar Inova flex cables. Also, a slim-line floppy disk may be attached using a suitable cable to the LPT connector (J13). A switch in BIOS allows the user to ‘redefine’ the signals!

Note:

If the LPT device is connected to this transition module then a connection cannot be made to the CPU base board. Doing so could render the hardware useless or cause any data communication to fail.
