Connecting The Power Supply - TYAN TRINITY 510 Manual

2.10 Connecting PS/2, USB, and Serial Devices
This motherboard includes ports for PS/2 mouse and keyboard, Universal Serial Bus (USB)
devices, and serial and parallel devices. Please note that the upper PS/2 port is the mouse port,
and the lower PS/2 port is for the keyboard (see Figure 2.3 below).
Installation of peripheral/external devices may vary. For details on installation of devices into the
various ports shown below, please consult your device's documentation, device manufacturer, or
your dealer for details.
Connecting Serial and Parallel Ports
The serial and parallel ports can be used to connect various devices such as a mouse or printer.
The connectors can only be connected one way: be sure and check the orientation of the
connector before installing it into the port.

2.11 Connecting the power supply

This motherboard requires the following:
ATX power supply, one that conforms to ATX standard 2.01 or better with 30A or better
on the +5V rail.
The clip on the power connector should lock over the tab on the onboard connector. You shouldn't
be able to plug the power connector in any other way but just to be safe, make sure it looks like
Figure 2.4b. Make certain that you do not miss connecting any of the pins because if you do, you
will void your warranty and possibly cause damage to yourself and/or your motherboard when the
power is turned on. After connecting the power, make sure the connector is seated firmly into its
socket so it will not become loose or fall off when the computer is jostled or moved.
Step 1: Shown on the right, in Figure 2.4a, is
the 20-pin connector of the ATX power supply.
Note the clip in the image: it will help you install
the plug correctly.
