2 To use a 5600 as a slave device it has to somewhat modified.
3 This has to be done on a 5600 (art no 16144 R2) to automatically set it to parallel port boot mode:
6 Close to the LPT1 connector there are two resistors, between the "Pulse" inductor and
7 the LS245. The one closest to the LS245 is a 4k7 pull up (R105). Remove it.
10 Between the other "Pulse" inductor and Etrax there is a black 5-pin inverter
11 (D15). Short connectors 2 and 3 with a solder blob.
15 To use this driver use cables connected like this:
16 DSUB25-Male DSUB25Male
32 Thus the cables are symmetrical with most cables straight through,
33 some crossed (1-10, 11-14 and 12-18)
34 and some Not connected (NC 13,15,16,17 and 19).
37 ******* Only for reference
38 To ease the use of flat-cable connectors, here are the notes of wich wires to cross and cut with pin 1 being cable 1:
