Chapter 2: Quick Installation Guide

The following steps will help you install the Model 232CCXX Serial Card. Please follow (step-by-step) the numbered instructions and refer to any corresponding chapters for more details.

CAUTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Device.

Use ESD precautions for safe handling.

Before removing the card from the anti-static protective packaging:

Discharge any static electricity build-up on your body by touching a large grounded metal surface or the metal chassis on equipment connected to earth ground by a 3-wire power cord.

Avoid touching the gold connectors or other parts on the card except as necessary. After setting the jumper, ground yourself to the computer chassis before and while inserting the card.

Remove AC power from the computer and unplug the power cord before inserting the card.

Retain the ESD bag for handling the card. Save the packaging for storage or shipping.

1.Make sure you have an available ISA slot for installing your B&B Electronics Serial Card. You may have to remove the cover of your PC.

2.Determine what addresses and IRQ’s are free to use on your PC by checking your operating system for unused addresses and IRQ’s. Each port uses eight I/O address spaces starting at the base address that you select. Each port I/O address and interrupt request (IRQ) must be set as well. See “Checking Device Manager for Available Address/IRQ’s” in Chapter 3 for your operating system. Refer to Chapter 4 (Table 3) for frequently unused I/O addresses and IRQ’s. Write down the address and IRQ you select to use. Do not physically install the ISA card at this point.

3.Add New Hardware – This consists of adding a port or ports to your operating system. See “Adding Serial Ports” in Chapter 3 for specific instructions for your operating system.
