Devices and I/O Ports (Server 330)



Devices and I/O Ports

Software recognizes ports from their port assignments. Each port must have a unique port assignment. The Setup  normally handles this, but you might have special hardware or software that requires you to change these assignments.

Select the Devices and I/O Ports choice to view or change the assignments for devices and input/output ports.

You can add serial ports by installing a serial adapter in an expansion slot. See the documentation that was shipped with the serial adapter for information about port assignments.

The parallel port can be configured as bidirectional , that is, data can be both read from and written to a device. In bidirectional mode, the server supports Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP).

The server supports a wide assortment of monitors. Because characteristics of monitor types vary, you should review the documentation that came with the monitor to determine the monitor type and refresh rate.

NOTE: When you configure the parallel port as bidirectional, use an IEEE 1284-compliant cable. The maximum length of the cable must not exceed 3 meters (9.8 feet).

To display or change the assignments for devices, or the serial, or parallel ports:
  1.  Power-on the system. When the F1 prompt appears, press F1. The Configuration/Setup Utility menu appears.
  2.  Select Devices and I/O Ports.
  3.  Select a device or port; use the Left Arrow (<) and Right Arrow  (>) keys to advance through the settings available.

     The Devices and I/O Ports choice appears only on the full  Configuration/Setup menu.
