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.

Pocket 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.......500 mA
PE2-10BT uses.......300 mA
PE2-10BX uses.......600 mA
PE3-10B2 uses.......300 mA
PE3-10BT uses.......300 mA
PE3-10BX uses.......600 mA
An AC adapter putting out 500 mA will usually work with any of them.
(Ed. Note that the -10bx adapters are 600 mA, must
be trying to power both interfaces?)
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.
