IBM® xSeries 220  User’s Reference

 

This section provides information about the input/output (I/O) ports on your server. 
These ports include the following: 

•

One parallel port

•

One video port

•

One keyboard port

•

One auxiliary pointing-device (mouse) port

•

Two serial ports

•

Two Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports

•

One SCSI connector

•

One Ethernet port

•

One communication connector dedicated to the system-management adapter

1. You can set an administrator password through the Configuration/Setup Utility 

program only if the optional system-management adapter is installed in your 
server.

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

Utility menu. If you have set both levels of passwords (user and administrator), 
you must type the administrator password to access the full Configuration/Setup 
Utility menu.

Your server has one parallel port. This port supports three standard Institute of 
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1284 modes of operation: Standard Parallel 
Port (SPP), Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP), and Extended Capability Port (ECP).

You can use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to configure the parallel port as 
bidirectional; that is, so that data can be both read from and written to a device. In 
bidirectional mode, the server supports the ECP and EPP modes.

To view or change the parallel-port assignment, do the following: 

1. Restart the server and watch the monitor screen. 

2. When the message Press F1 for Configuration/Setup appears, press F1.

3. From the main menu, select Devices and I/O Ports; then, press Enter.

4. Select the parallel port; then, use the arrow keys to advance through the available 

settings. 

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).

5. Select Save Settings; then, select Exit Setup to exit from the Configuration/Setup 

Utility main menu.
