(Performa 6360)

 

The 6200 Series computers ship with an IDE hard drive, an

 

internal 14.4 Global Village modem, and a 600i CD-ROM

 

drive (optional).

Basics General Information - 3

Internal Expansion Connections

The following expansion slots are included on the logic board:

• DRAM SIMM expansion slot (1 or 2 slots), DRAM DIMM expansion sockets on the Performa 6360

• LC PDS slot (already populated in the LC 630 DOSCompatible, no PDS slot on 6360)

• PCI slot on the Performa 6360

• Communications slot for modems and Ethernet

• Video-in slot for real-time video display, capture, and overlay

In addition to expansion slots on the logic board, an expansion ribbon connector for an optional TV tuner card also is included. The TV-tuner connector provides NTSC and PAL input from an external TV antenna or cable.

Basics

Performa 6320CD and 6300CD - 4

 

 

 

Performa 6320CD and 6300CD

The Performa 6320CD supersedes the Performa 6300CD. The Performa 6320CD has a 603e processor at 120 MHz, while the Performa 6300CD has a 603e processor at 100 MHz. All other hardware features are the same as the 6300CD.

Basics Performa 6360 - 5

Performa 6360

The Performa 6360 differs from previous models in this computer family with these features:

• PowerPC 603e processor with a 160 MHz processor clock

• 16 MB of DRAM expandable to 136 MB in two DIMM sockets

• PCI expansion slot

• GeoPort-compatible serial ports

Basics

Open Transport - 6

 

 

 

Open Transport

Open Transport 1.1 does not work on 6200 or 6300 Series computers. These computers require Open Transport 1.1.1. When version 1.1.1 is installed on these computers, a dialog box may appear indicating that a hardware issue was detected. This message means that Open Transport can’t be installed until the cache/ROM DIMM is replaced.

The required repairs are covered under the Apple Repair Extension Program. The models included in this program are Macintosh Performa 6200, 6205, 6214, 6216, 6218, 6220, 6230, 6290, and 6300. Look for repair program instructions in the REA Procedures chapter.

Basics

Processor-Direct Slot (PDS) - 7

 

 

 

Processor-Direct Slot (PDS)

The LC-processor direct slot (LC-PDS) is compatible with the PDS in the Macintosh LC family of computers, but it is not a true PDS. While this expansion slot supports many PDS cards designed to operate with the MC68030 bus, some of those cards do not work. PDS cards designed to interact with the main processor—to provide, for example, a RAM cache or an FPU—will not work in the I/O expansion slot.

Basics

Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) - 8

 

 

 

Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)

The Performa 6360 offers a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) expansion bus. Because the PCI bus is an industry standard, most existing PCI 2.0-compliant cards (with the addition of a Mac OS-specific software driver) will work in these computers.

PCI offers significantly higher performance than the NuBus architecture used in previous Macintosh models. Running at 33 MHz, the PCI bus is up to three times faster than NuBus, offering overall enhanced system performance (particularly in the areas of video and networking).

Basics

Video-In Card - 9

 

 

 

Video-In Card

The video-in card is an optional card included with the Apple TV/Video System. It allows users to digitize video from the TV tuner, and external composite or S-video input. It accepts NTSC, PAL, or SECAM format video and also provides stereo audio input.

Basics

TV Tuner Module - 10

 

 

 

TV Tuner Module

The TV tuner, an optional module included with the Apple TV/Video System, turns the computer into a television receiver. The TV tuner requires the video-in card, which is also included with the Apple TV/Video System.

The TV tuner receives incoming television signals from cable or antenna television input and then sends the information to the video-in card, which converts the data for display on the screen. In the United States, only NTSC is supported, but PAL and SECAM are available internationally.

Basics

GeoPort (Performa 6360) - 11

 

 

 

GeoPort (Performa 6360)

GeoPort is a hardware and software communications architecture that has been optimized for computertelephony integration. It has the following attributes:

It allows users to connect any GeoPort-compatible computer to any telephone (analog or digital, public, or private) anywhere in the world.

Once connected, it supports an arbitrary number of independent data streams up to a total bandwidth of 2 MB/second.

Unlike traditional asynchronous data communications (such as AppleTalk), GeoPort also supports isochronous data streams (such as real-time voice and video) and provides the real-time Application Program Interfaces (APIs) necessary to hide the implementation details from both the recipient and the sender.

Basics

Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) - 12

 

 

 

Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs)

The Performa 6360 uses DRAM Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) instead of DRAM Single In-Line Memory Modules (SIMMs). Whereas SIMMs have 72 pins, DIMMs have 168 pins. The extra pins provide a 64-bit data path, compared to a 32-bit data path for SIMMs. In addition, DIMMs do not have to be installed in pairs like the SIMMs on earlier Macintosh models.

Important: The SIMMs used in previous Macintosh models are not compatible with the Performa 6360.

Basics

Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) - 13

 

 

 

 

DRAM DIMMs can be installed individually. However, to take

 

advantage of the computer’s interleaving capability (which

 

provides maximum performance), you must install the

 

DIMMs in matching pairs. Memory interleaving allows the

 

computer to read or write to its memory while other

 

memory reads or writes are occurring, providing faster

 

performance.

 

Note: DIMMs purchased from different manufacturers can

 

be paired as long as they are the same size and speed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basics

Intelligent Device Electronics (IDE) Drive - 14

 

 

 

Intelligent Device Electronics (IDE) Drive

The internal hard drive uses Intelligent Device Electronics (IDE) technology, commonly used in DOS-compatible systems. The internal IDE hard drive functions the same as a typical SCSI hard drive. You must replace IDE drives like- for-like.

The IDE drive does not affect SCSI ID selections or SCSItermination schemes. Seven external SCSI devices may be daisy-chained through the external SCSI port.

Basics

Plastic Panel Design - 15

 

 

 

Plastic Panel Design

The computer is designed for easy service. Plastic panels cover the metal bottom case, the metal top cover shield, and the left, right, and rear sides of the metal case.

To service the logic board, remove the rear plastic panel and slide out the logic board. To access the drives, remove the front plastic panel.
