GeoPort combines hybrid EIA/TIA-422-B and EIA/TIA-423-B drivers and receivers to transmit data up to four megabits per second (Mbit/s) full duplex. GeoPort is a serial communications standard that is intended to replace the RS-232, Appletalk, and LocalTalk printer ports all in one connector in addition to providing real-time data transfer capability. It provides point-to-point connections between GeoPort-compatible devices with data transmission rates up to 4 Mbit/s full duplex and a hot-plug feature. Applications include connection to telephony, integrated services digital network (ISDN), digital sound and imaging, fax-data modems, and other serial and parallel connections. The GeoPort is backwardly compatible to both LocalTalk and AppleTalk.

  • SETTING UP-Setting up Your Macintosh Centris 610 Involves These Steps
    SETTING UP-Setting up your Macintosh Centris 610 involves these steps: - Plugging in the computer - Connecting a monitor - Connecting the mouse and keyboard - Connecting other devices - Turning the computer on Plugging in the Computer Plug in the Macintosh before connecting anything to it. The plug grounds the computer and protects it from electrical damage while you are setting up. 1. Plug the socket end of the power cord into the recessed power plug (marked with the symbol ) on the back of the computer. 2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a three-hole grounded outlet or power strip. !! WARNING: This equipment is intended to be electrically grounded. Your Macintosh Centris 610 is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug -- a plug that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only a grounded AC outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug! !! If the computer starts up: If you hear a tone, the computer has started up and you need to turn it off before proceeding. Press and release the power switch on the front panel to turn the computer off. To protect both yourself and the computer from electrical hazards, the computer should remain turned off until you are finished connecting its parts. Installing an Expansion Card If you purchased an expansion card for your Macintosh Centris 610, see "Installing Expansion Cards," page 24, for instructions on installing it.

  • Powerpc and Power Macintosh L Technical Information
    L Technical PowerPC and Information Power Macintosh Recently, both Apple Computer and IBM have introduced products based on the PowerPC™ microprocessor. The PowerPC microprocessor is a result of collaboration between three industry leaders: Apple, IBM, and Motorola. This cooperative project was announced in 1991. The project’s goal was to advance the evolution of the personal computer in five major areas: • PowerPC – Apple, IBM, and Motorola agreed to develop a family of RISC microprocessors. • Interoperability – IBM and Apple agreed to work together to ensure that Macintosh® computers work smoothly with large, networked IBM enterprise systems. This involves products in networking and communication. • PowerOpen® – IBM and Apple agreed to co-develop a new version of the UNIX® operating system that takes advantage of the strengths of the PowerPC microprocessor. • Kaleida – A new company called Kaleida was created to work on new standards for multimedia products. • Taligent – A new company called Taligent was created to develop an object-oriented operating system. While there have been advances in all of these areas, the announcement of the Power Macintosh has focused industry attention on the PowerPC chip. (Note: Microprocessors are often referred to as ‘chips’ or ‘computer chips’.) The PowerPC microprocessor The term PowerPC describes a family of microprocessors that may be used in a variety of computers. Apple Computer has introduced a series of computers based on this microprocessor which they will call Power Macintoshes™. IBM computers that contain the PowerPC microprocessor will be part of the RS6000 series. The RS6000 series is a high-end UNIX product. The Power Macintosh, on the other hand, is intended as a broad- based consumer product.

  • Gestalt Manager 1
    CHAPTER 1 Gestalt Manager 1 This chapter describes how you can use the Gestalt Manager and other system software facilities to investigate the operating environment. You need to know about the 1 operating environment if your application takes advantage of hardware (such as a Gestalt Manager floating-point unit) or software (such as Color QuickDraw) that is not available on all Macintosh computers. You can also use the Gestalt Manager to inform the Operating System that your software is present and to find out about other software registered with the Gestalt Manager. The Gestalt Manager is available in system software versions 6.0.4 and later. The MPW software development system and some other development environments supply code that allows you to use the Gestalt Manager on earlier system software versions; check the documentation provided with your development system. In system software versions earlier than 6.0.4, you can retrieve a limited description of the operating environment with the SysEnvirons function, also described in this chapter. You need to read this chapter if you take advantage of specific hardware or software features that may not be present on all versions of the Macintosh, or if you wish to inform other software that your software is present in the operating environment. This chapter describes how the Gestalt Manager works and then explains how you can ■ determine whether the Gestalt Manager is available ■ call the Gestalt function to investigate the operating environment ■ make information about your own hardware or software available to other applications ■ retrieve a limited description of the operating environment even if the Gestalt Manager is not available About the Gestalt Manager 1 The Macintosh family of computers includes models that use a number of different processors, some accompanied by a floating-point unit (FPU) or memory management unit (MMU).

  • From 128K to Quadra: Model by Model
    Chapter 12 From 128K to Quadra: Model by Model IN THIS CHAPTER: I What the specs mean I The specs for every Mac model ever made I Secrets of the pre-PowerPC Mac models I Just how much your Mac has devalued Yes, we’ve already been told that we’re nuts to attempt the next two chapters of this book. Since 1984, Apple has created more than 140 different Mac models — including 35 different PowerBooks and 53 different Performas! Each year, Apple piles on another dozen or so new models. By the time you finish reading this page, another Performa model probably will have been born. So, writing a couple of chapters that are supposed to describe every model is an exercise in futility. But we’re going to attempt it anyway, taking the models one by one and tracking their speeds, specs, and life cycles. This chapter will cover all the Apple Macs — both desktop and portable models — from the birth of the original Macintosh 128K to the release of the PowerBook 190, the last Mac ever made that was based on Motorola’s 68000-series processor chip. When you’re finished reading this chapter, you will be one of the few people on Earth who actually knows the difference between a Performa 550, 560, 575, 577, 578, 580, and 588. 375 376 Part II: Secrets of the Machine Chapter 13 will cover every Power Mac — or, more accurately, every PowerPC-based machine (those with four-digit model numbers) — from the first ones released in 1994 to the models released just minutes before this book was printed.
