PCAN-Dongle (ISO) – User Manual

Hardware Installation
2.1
Connecting to the PC
1.
Make sure that the PC is turned off.
2.
Connect the PCAN-Dongle with the wider port (25 pins) to
the free parallel port at the PC.
3.
Pull the keyboard connector from the corresponding port at
the PC.
4.
Connect the T-piece at the cable of the PCAN-Dongle to the
keyboard port.
5.
Now reconnect the keyboard to the free end of the T-piece.
A configuration of the hardware is not needed. However, you
should check the settings for the parallel interface in the PC's BIOS
setup.
If the PC has a parallel interface with EPP as well as ECP properties,
the corresponding setting in the BIOS set-up should be "ECP" (not
"EPP" and not "EPP+ECP"). Although the extended properties of the
PCAN-Dongle usually will work with the last-mentioned setting
some systems may have problems with it. Therefore the setting for
the "pure" ECP mode should be preferred.
Further information about the different operating modes of the
PCAN-Dongle can be found in chapter 4
