Jumper Settings (JP11)

Change the setting of jumper JP11 to enable or disable the onboard LAN or NIC (Network Interface Card) on your motherboard. See Table 2-30 for jumper settings.

Power Supply Failure

Alarm Enable/Disable

The system will notify you in the event of a power supply failure. This feature assumes that three power supply units are installed in the chassis, with one acting as a backup. If you only have one or two power supply units installed, you should disable this with JP13 to prevent false alarms . See Table 2-31 for jumper settings.

Installation

2-8 Parallel Port, Floppy/Hard Disk Drive, AGP Port and SCSI Connections

Note the following when connecting the floppy and hard disk drive cables:

The floppy disk drive cable has seven twisted wires.

A red mark on a wire typically designates the location of pin 1.

A single floppy disk drive ribbon cable has 34 wires and two connectors to provide for two floppy disk drives. The connector with twisted wires always connects to drive A, and the connector that does not have twisted wires always connects to drive B.

The 80-wire ATA66 IDE hard disk drive cable that came with your system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable should be used to take advantage of the speed this new technology offers. The blue connector connects to the onboard IDE header and the other connector(s) to your hard drive(s). Consult the documentation that came with your disk drive for details on actual jumper locations and settings.
