I/O Slots

The four I/O slots located at the top left of the rear panel are PCI (Peripheral Connect
Interface) slots, which can be used for add-on I/O interface cards. There are two PCI-2X
slots and two PCI-1X slots, which are defined as follows:
Slot 1: 64-bit PCI-2X at 5V, 33 MHz
Slot 2: 64-bit PCI-2X at 5V, 33 MHz
Slot 3: 32-bit PCI-1X at 5V, 33 MHz
Slot 4: 32-bit PCI-1X at 5V, 33 MHz

Monitor Connector

The B2000 workstation has an integrated HP V
board. Thus, the monitor connector on the rear panel of the workstation connects the
monitor to this graphics chip on the system board.

Serial Connectors

There are a variety of pointing devices (such as a mouse or trackball) or peripheral devices
(including printers, plotters, modems, and scanners) that can be attached to the two
RS-232 Serial Input/Output (SIO) ports on the rear panel of this workstation. Refer to the
label on the rear of the workstation to locate serial port 1 and serial port 2. Consult the
documentation that accompanies each pointing device or peripheral device for specific
information concerning its use.
The SIO ports are programmable, allowing functions such as bit rate, character length,
parity, and stop bits to be set. You can set these by using the HP-UX System
Administration Manager (SAM) utility, or by selecting a system special device file with the
functions already programmed. The SIO ports are used as interfaces for serial
asynchronous devices to the CPU.
Table 1-4 shows the SIO connector pin listings. The serial connectors are 9-pin D-sub
connectors. Signal names are those specified in the EIA RS-232 standard.
