Chapter 2 Connecting Peripherals
2.5 VGA Connector (VGA1)
The ASMB-784 includes a VGA interface that can drive conventional CRT displays.
Pin assignments of VGA1 are detailed in Appendix B.
2.6 Serial Ports (COM1, COM2)
The ASMB-784 offers two serial ports (one on the rear panel and one
onboard).These ports can connect to a serial mouse, printer or communications net-
work. The IRQ and address ranges for those ports are fixed. However, if you want to
disable the port or change these parameters later, you can do this in the system
BIOS setup. Different devices implement the RS-232 standards in different ways. If
you are having problems with a serial device, please be sure to check the pin assign-
ments for the connector.
