1. DB9 Serial Port - The RS232 serial port can be used to control any serial
device or to access the shell. Serial control is accomplished using BrightScript
and the serial object.
2. DB25 GPIO Control Port - For connecting your own LEDs or Buttons (see
the GPIO Control Port section of this manual)
3. Line Level Audio Outputs and SPDIF - When audio is playing back
(either by itself or as part of a video), it can be directed to any one of these audio
outputs, or to SPDIF, or to USB Speakers. This allows you to control multiple
sets of speakers from one BrightSign.
4. Two USB Host Ports - Connect USB Speakers, USB Mouse/Trackballs,
USB Keyboards or Elo Touch Screen.
5. VGA - Drive a VGA monitor in various modes up to 1024x768.

Component TV in 480p or 720p modes, or to generate S-Video, or NTSC or PAL
composite.
• Composite video – from Blue jack.
• S-Video: Luma from Green jack and Chroma from Red jack (see hardware manual
for adaptor circuit diagram).
• 480P video: Y from Green jack, Pr from Red jack, and Pb from Blue jack.
• 720P video: Y from Green jack, Pr from Red jack, and Pb from Blue jack.
7. Ethernet - The 10/100 port is not currently enabled on the HD600.
