4700/PC Options

The following IBM 4700 Personal Computer Options are provided to permit
attachment of 4700 Finance Communication System input devices and 4700 Finance
Communication Printers.

    Financial Input Adapter (#6049) (No Longer Available as of August 16, 1989)
    Financial Output Adapter (#6052) (No Longer Available as of August 16, 1989)

The following IBM 4700 Personal Computer Option is provided to permit
encryption/decryption capabilities in the personal computer. Data
encrypted/decrypted in the personal computer may be decrypted/encrypted in the
4701/4702 using the same algorithm.

    Financial Security Adapter (#6054)

(#6049) IBM 4700 Personal Computer Financial Input Option (No Longer Available
as of August 16, 1989)

This option allows the attachment of 4704 Finance Keyboards, Magnetic Readers,
Magnetic Reader/Encoder, and clear and encrypting PIN Pads running DOS 2.1 or
later. Each option contains the Financial Input adapter card, the Financial
Input Connector Assembly, installation and problem determination procedures,
diagnostic diskette, microcode diskette with device drivers and configuration
customization, and a microcode users guide. The keyboard attachment is
transparent to DOS applications. Keyboards may be combined in the following way:

    Finance Administrative Keyboard stand-alone

    Finance Extended Alphameric Keyboard stand-alone

    PC Keyboard stand-alone

    Finance Extended Alphameric Keyboard with Finance Function Keyboard

    Finance Alphameric Keyboard with Finance Function Keyboard

    PC Keyboard with Finance Function Keyboard*

* This combination is valid only in a PC application and not in the terminal
emulation of the 4700 Personal Computer Application Services.

One magnetic reader or reader/encoder or IBM 4706 Document Codeline and Magnetic
Stripe Reader and one clear or encrypting pin pad may be attached in addition to
the keyboard combinations listed above. They may be accessed by DOS applications
via standard DOS device drivers provided. For more information about finance
keyboards, magnetic readers, magnetic reader/encoder, and clear or encrypting
PIN pads, see 4704 in Machine section. Prerequisite: An IBM Personal Computer
with 256Kb on system board. Maximum: One. Limitations: This adapter must be
installed in the system unit and not in a Expansion Unit.

(#6052) IBM 4700 Personal Computer Financial Output Option (No Longer Available
as of August 16, 1989)

This option allows the attachment of a single Finance Printer from this list
using DOS 2.1 or later:

    4710 Receipt/Validations Printer 4715 Continuous Forms Printer 4720
    Forms/Passbook Printer - Models 1, 2, 3, or 4

The adapter card handles the 4700 loop protocol and data stream to the devices.
It supports a single device with one or two logical device addresses. It
attaches only devices that adhere to the 4700 Universal Device Processor
protocols. Each option contains the Financial Output adapter card, the Financial
Output Cable, installation and problem determination procedures, diagnostic
diskette, microcode diskette with device drivers and configuration
customization, and a microcode users guide. For more information about finance
output devices, see 4710, 4715, and 4720 in "Machine" section. Prerequisite: An
IBM Personal Computer with 256Kb on system board. Maximum: One. Limitations: The
adapter must be installed in the system unit and not in a Expansion Unit. With
this adapter installed memory is limited to 576Kb.

(#6054) IBM 4700 Personal Computer Financial Security Option

It allows an application program running DOS 2.1 or later to encrypt and decrypt
data for communications and files using the ANSI (X3.92 - 1981) Data Encryption
Algorithm (DEA). The user can have the added security of encryption for
sensitive communications data transmitted from the personal computer to another
source over communications lines. The user can also protect sensitive programs
and data stored on personal computer files via encryption. Each option contains
the Financial Security adapter card, installation and problem determination
procedures, diagnostic diskette, microcode diskette with adapter support, and a
microcode users guide. Included is support to set the master and session keys.
The functions of the adapter may be accessed by DOS applications via standard
DOS device drivers provided. The algorithm used is the same as that used in the
4701/4702. Prerequisite: An IBM Personal Computer with 256Kb on system board.
Maximum: One. Limitations: This adapter must be installed in the system unit and
not in a Expansion Unit.
