PT3-16CTP
Pocket Token Ring III Adapter
Install, ac and phantom power.
The odd cable for the PE III adapters
takes the power from
the PS/2 port. This doesn't strike me as all that smart,
as the adapters
use from 300-600 mA. The TR models can't use the L40SX
mouse port, too
high of a power draw.

Install PT3-16CTP
With system OFF, plug Pocket adapter into
parallel port. The
Xircom logo and LEDs must be on top. Rotate the red band
(tractor grip)
clockwise until the screws are secure. When the screws
are tight, the band
will "click" as you rotate it.
Install Phantom Power Cable
Power system OFF. Ensure Pocket Adapter is
attached to parallel
port. Insert L shaped plug into Pocket Adapter. Plug
pass through power
connector into PS/2 port. If you need to, plug
your mouse into the
pass-through connector.
Note: Use
ONLY
mice on the pass-through connector.Other devices may
blow the fuse on the
planar.
Note: The mouse
port on the L40SX
is NOT compatible with the
phantom power cable.

Ethernet Adapter power supply specifications
This applies to: Xircom(R) Pocket Ethernet II / III
Adapter
Below are the power requirements for our Pocket
Adapters:
Input Voltage: 120 VAC/60 Hz
Output Voltage: 12 VDC unregulated, 500 mA
The Pocket Ethernet Series adapters require 12 VDC
unregulated, center
positive, capable of supplying the following current:
pe2-10b2 uses ......500ma
pe2-10bt uses.......300ma
pe2-10bx uses.......600ma
Pe3-10b2 uses .........300 ma
Pe3-10bt uses..........300 ma
Pe3-10bx uses...........600ma
An AC adapter putting out 500mA will usually work with
any of them.
(Ed. Note that the -10bx
adapters are 600mA, must be trying to power both interfaces?)
