5.To modify either of the resource settings click the resource name and click the Change Setting button.

6.An Edit Resource window will open. Inside the Edit Resource window click on the up/down arrows to the right of the resource value. This scrolls you through all of the allowable resources for your hardware. Pay attention to the Conflict Information at the bottom of the window. Do not select a resource that causes a conflict with any other installed hardware.

7.Repeat the above steps to modify all of the resources allocated to the IOP-241. Once satisfied with the settings make a note of the new settings and click the OK button to accept. Clicking the Cancel button does not save your changes.

If any changes have been made to the IOP-241 configuration, the card will automatically be reconfigured to the new resources specified. Any time a PCMCIA card of this type is inserted, Windows 95/98 will attempt to configure the card at these resource settings. Click the Use Automatic Settings box to reset this card type for automatic configuration, (see Figure 3-1).

3.4After Completing Configuration

The IOP-241 is now configured and ready for use. Depending on the type of application software to be used, the user may wish to review one or more of the following:

1.Chapter 4 of this document provides a basic theory of operation of the card for users that wish to learn technical details about the operation of the IOP-241.

2.For users that want to program the IOP-241 with direct I/O transfers to the card’s register set, Chapter 5 provides an address map and a detailed description of each I/O register.

3.Users that wish to write custom application software without programming the IOP-241 directly should consult the DAQDRIVE software reference manual. DAQDRIVE provides a library of data acquisition subroutines and is included free of charge with the IOP-241.

4.For third party data acquisition software such as LabTech Notebook®, LabVIEW®, TestPoint® or SnapMaster®, consult the documentation provided by the software manufacturer.
