Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Installation Instructions This section covers External Connectors and Jumper Settings. Refer to the mainboard layout chart for locations of all jumpers, external connectors, slots and I/O ports. Further- more, this section lists all necessary connector pin assignments for your reference. The particular state of the jumpers, connectors and ports are illustrated in the following fig- ures.
Installation Instructions Line-in jack, Microphone-in jack, Speaker-out jack and MIDI/Joystick (available on P1D-A,P1D-AL) Connector The Line-in jack can be connected to devices such as a cassette or minidisc player to playback or record. The Microphone-in jack can be connected to a microphone for voice input. The Speaker-out jack allows you to connect speakers or headphones for audio output from the internal amplifier.The MIDI/Joystick connector allows you to connect a game joystick or a MIDI device.
(if one is provided), then push once the power switch. When powering off the system, you neednt turn off the mechanical switch, just Push once the power switch. PlatiniX 1D series mainboard only support ATX12V power. +12V...
Installation Instructions Speaker Connector (SPEAKER) The connector can be connected to the speaker on the case. Power LED Connector (PWR LED) When the system is in S0 status, the LED is on. When the system is in S1 status, the LED is blink;...
Chapter 2 Infrared Header (IrDA) This connector supports wireless transmitting and receiving. Before using this function, configure the settings for IR Address, IR Mode and IR IRQ from the INTEGRATED PERIPH- ERALS section of the BIOS. IRRX IRTX Audio Connectors (CD_IN1, CD_IN2, MODEM) (Available on P1D-A/AL) CD_IN1 and CD_IN2 are Sony standard CD audio connectors, they both can be con- nected to a CD-ROM drive through a CD audio cable.
Installation Instructions Smart Card Reader Connector( SCR )(Optional) The SCR Interface Connector is the interface between the motherboard and the Smart Card. The SCR includes a standard UART to control Smart Card interface handshaking and then performs data transfers. The SCR can be used for a broad range of applications in GSM, ID, pay TV, banking and so forth.
Chapter 2 Wake-Up On LAN (WOL) Through the Wake-Up On LAN function, a wake event occurring from the network can wake up the system. If this function is to be used, please be sure an ATX12V power, and a LAN adapter which supports this function is used. Then connect this header to the relevant connector on the LAN adapter, set Wake-Up by Ring/ LAN...

Chapter 2 4 Pin SMBus Connector(SMBUS) This connector allows you to connect SMBus devices. SMBus devices communicate through the SMBus with an SMBus host and/or other SMBus devices. The SMBus or System Management Bus is a specific implementation of I C bus, which is a multi-master bus, that is, multiple chips can be connected to the same bus and each one can act as a master by initiating data transfer.
Installation Instructions Audio Interface (Optional) The audio interface can provide 3 kinds of Audio output choics :the FrontAudio, the RearAudio and the ActiveAudio. Their priority level is as sequence. when the FrontAudio is available, the RearAudio and the ActiveAudio(in-case speaker)will be cut off. when the RearAudio is available, the ActiveAudio will be cut off.
Chapter 2 Intruder Detect Switch(JINTR)(Reserved) The connector connects to the chassis security switch on the case. The system can detect the chassis intrusion through the status of this connector. Indicate signal Main Expansion Slots and Connectors Slot/Port (Quantity) Description PCI( 3 ) PCI slots CNR( 1 ) CNR slot...
