Hardware Installation

CAP jumper J P1. The software and hardware configuration will be completed at the same time while doing the software configuration, detailed in the next chapter. Of course, the method is valid only under the previously described circumstances.

Besides, the speed range will be set to fr om 50 to 921.6K bps by default, which is called High Speed Spectr um and detailed in section "Hardware Installation with IO-IRQ Utility".

How to Do Quick Hardware Installation

1.Shor t the jumper J P1 on the upper-left corner of the board.

2.Plug the board in PC with the desired system installed (Windows NT or 95/98), which is powered off in advance.

3.Do software (driver) installation, detailed in the next chapter.

This is to specify the desired I/O address, IRQ and INT Vector in the software configuration panel, no matter what hardware settings are on the board. The software configuration program will automatically update the hardware settings.

After this, users already complete the whole installation.

4.Shutdown the system (Windows NT or 95/98).

5.Do power off and then on (or Reset) the PC. (Please cold star t.)

6.Restart System (Windows NT or 95/98).

It is very important to keep the JP1 always short in this case. Without running the hardware configuration program, Io-irq.exe under DOS prompt, the software configuration program will automatically update the hardware settings of the board while updating the software settings. This saves the trouble doing hardware configuration. However, remember to cold star t the system ever y time the configur ation changed.
