To use the Keypad Configuration Utility, connect an IBM AT standard
keyboard and mouse with PS/2 connectors (if you do not have touch
screen or touch mouse) to the 6180 computer. If you are using the front
panel connectors, you must install jumper cables as shown below. These
jumpers route the keyboard and mouse ports from the processor board to
the front panel connectors. Make sure the correct ports are used.
