Technical Information
The PowerMate
Series includes the PowerMate P60D and PowerMate P60M. The
information in this manual applies to both models except where indicated. Models differ
primarily in the chassis.
This section provides an overview of the PowerMate Series hardware. The basic hardware
for the system includes a system unit, keyboard, and mouse. The “D” in the model name
refers to a desktop style chassis and the “M” refers to the minitower style chassis.
External interface connectors are located in the rear of the system unit and are identified
in Section 2, Setup and Operation. Jumper settings for all of the internal boards are also
provided in Section 2. Appendix A provides the system unit connector pin assignments and
Appendix B provides specifications.
An overview of each of the two system unit styles are described in the following
subsections.
DESKTOP SYSTEM UNIT
The desktop chassis provides an enclosure for the system board, power supply, four storage
device slots, and a four-expansion-slot ISA/Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)-bus
backboard. The storage device slots accommodate a 3 1/2-inch diskette drive, a 3 1/2-inch
hard disk (1-inch height), and two 5 1/4-inch storage devices (1.6-inch height). The system
ships with a 3 1/2-inch diskette drive and in some configurations, a hard disk drive leaving
two 5 1/4-inch storage device slots available for optional devices. All desktop models share
the system unit features shown in Figure Section 1-1.
