Floppy Drive Connector (Cn3); Parallel Port (Cn4) - Advantech IPC-610B Manual

2.2
You can attach up to two floppy disk drives to the PCA-6178's
onboard controller. You can use any combination of 5.25" (360 KB /
1.2 MB) and/or 3.5" (720 KB / 1.44/2.88 MB) drives.
The card comes with a 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable. On
one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end
are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists of a
34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5" drives) and a
printed circuit-board connector (usually used for 5.25" drives). You
can use only one connector in each set. The set on the end (after the
twist in the cable) connects to the A: floppy drive. The set in the
middle connects to the B: floppy drive.
2.3
The parallel port is normally used to connect the CPU card to a
printer. The PCA-6178 includes an onboard parallel port, accessed
through a 26-pin flat-cable connector, CN4. The card comes with an
adapter cable which lets you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The
cable has a 26-pin connector on one end and a DB-25 connector on
the other, mounted on a retaining bracket. The bracket installs at the
end of an empty slot in your chassis, giving you access to the connec-
tor.
The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or
changed to LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.
