Note: The COM2 header requires a optional I/O adapter from Cubix. Attempting to connect a serial device directly to this connector will damage the board.


J9 - PS/2 Mouse Connector

This header requires a optional I/O adapter from Cubix. Attempting to connect a PS/2 mouse directly to this connector will damage the board.

Switch & Jumper Settings


Jumper JP1 & JP3 - CPU Speed

Factory configured - should not be changed.

JP1- Pins 1-2 JP1- Pins 3 -4 JP3 CPU Speed
OFF ON 1-2 SX-25, DX-25, DX2-50
OFF OFF 1-2 SX-33, DX-33, DX2-66, DX4-100
ON OFF 2-3 DX-40 (must have 40MHz chipset)

Warning! P1 and JP3 are configured at the factory for the CPU type installed and should not be changed


Jumper JP4 - Processor Type

JP4 CPU Type
OFF DX, DX2
ON SX


Warning!
JP4 is configured at the factory for the CPU type installed and should not be changed.

 


Switch 1 - Reset on Loss of DCD or DSR

Reset Condition Position
  1 2
Reset when DSR drops on COM1 ON OFF
Reset when DCD drops on COM1 OFF ON
Reset when DCD or DSR drops on COM1 ON ON
*Reset Disabled OFF OFF
*Factory Setting OFF OFF
Note; If positions 1 and 2 are both set to ON, then loss of DSR will reset the BC 4035.
