I have a machine control cabinet with an ISA / PCI motherboard and can find no manufacturer markings on the exposed part of the board. It may be there somewhere but I'd have to pull the cabinet apart to try and look further. As such I have no access to a manual for the board.
I'd like to add a USB port to the front of the cabinet. There is a typical 9-pin USB header on the board (9 pins and one blank pin location on the end) but due to its location I cannot see any USB labeling next to the header.
My question is whether this header could be anything besides a USB header. I don't want to risk plugging in a USB connector to the board if there is any chance this is not a USB header. Frying this motherboard would be disastrous.
Thanks,
BH Davis
