The MVME51005E-0163 transition module provides industry standard connector access to the IEEE 1284 parallel port, a 10BaseT or 100BaseT port via an RJ-45 connector, two DB-9 connectors providing access to the asynchronous serial ports configured as EIA-574 DTE and two HD-26 connectors providing access to the sync/async serial ports. These serial ports, labeled as Serial 3 and Serial 4 on the faceplate of the MVME51005E-0163, are individually user-configurable as EIA-232, DCE or DTE via the installation of SMART EC Serial Interface Modules (SIMs). A P2 adapter board provides interface signals to the MVME761 transition module. Two separate P2 adapter boards are available: one for 3-row backplanes and one for 5-row backplanes. The 3-row P2 adapter board provides connection for 8-bit SCSI. A 5-row P2 adapter board supports 16-bit SCSI and PMC I/O.The MVME712M transition module provides industry standard connector access to the Centronics parallel port, a narrow SCSI port, and four DB-25 connectors providing access to the asynchronous/synchronous serial ports jumper configurable as EIA-232 DCE or DTE. A P2 adapter board provides interface signals to the MVME51005E-0163 transition module. The 3-row P2 adapter board also provides connection for 8-bit SCSI. To gain access to the additional user-definable I/O pins provided via the 5-row VME64 extension connector, a special P2 adapter board is available. This adapter panel replaces the traditional 3-row P2 adapter board and extends its capability by providing access to the PMC I/O pins.
