Connecting Peripheral Devices
If your system normally operates without a monitor or keyboard—for
example, as a network server—you must install them to configure the
system. You may remove them after running the SCU. For information
about running this utility, see Chapter 3, “Configuring The System,”.
Connect your keyboard, mouse, monitor, and other peripheral devices after
installing all internal options and replacing the side cover. See Figure 2-1.
Warnings and Cautions
Before connecting peripheral devices to the server, observe the warnings
and cautions provided for your safety on page 3, “Safety Guidelines.”
Server integration should be done by a qualified technical person.
Keyboard
Insert the cable connector of a PS/2-compatible keyboard into the 6-pin
miniature Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN) connector on the system back
panel. The keyboard port is overcurrent-protected by a 1-ampere positive
temperature coefficient (PTC) resistor.
Mouse
Insert the cable connector of a PS/2-compatible mouse into the 6-pin
miniature DIN connector on the system back panel. The mouse port is
overcurrent-protected by a 1-ampere PTC resistor.
Monitor
Insert the cable connector of the video monitor into the 15-pin connector of
the Super VGA port on the system back panel.
Other Devices
Connect other external peripheral devices—for example, a printer and an
external modem—by following the instructions in the documentation
included with the device. Besides the keyboard, mouse, and monitor ports,
the back panel also provides two serial ports, and a parallel port.
