Installing the cable adapter

To install the cable adapter bracket, proceed with the following steps:
  1. Make sure that your Zebra Rapixo CoF board is fastened to the computer chassis.
  2. Attach the cable adapter bracket to internal auxiliary I/O connector 1/2 or 2/3 on the Zebra Rapixo CoF board. When attaching the flat ribbon cables of the adapter bracket, position the cable so that the black wire is on the same side as the bracket of the Zebra Rapixo CoF board.
    The internal auxiliary I/O connector that is closest to the panel (connector 1/2) supports 16 signals across both HD-15 connectors. The internal I/O connector that is further from the panel (connector 2/3) only supports 8 signals on the top HD-15 connector.
  3. Slide the bracket of the cable adapter bracket into the opening at the back of the selected slot.
  4. Anchor the bracket to the chassis using the screw that you removed in the previous section.
    The external auxiliary I/O connectors on the cable adapter bracket are panel mount connectors. If you don’t want to occupy an entire slot for the additional bracket, you can punch out two holes in the computer chassis, and then screw the connectors in the holes.
