APPENDIX G
WINDOWS/NT
CONFIGURATION for version 3.51 up
The PCCOM 8 port adapter can be
installed in the Windows NT by using serial device driver in the
distribution diskette, and the device driver will detect 8250, 16450,
16550, 16650 chips automatically.
G.1 Installation
| 1. |
You
may set arbitrary I/O address and interrupts. However, we suggest you
use the following: |
I/O port address = 280 H
Interrupt = IRQ5
Interrupt vector = 2C0H
| 2. |
Insert
the distribution diskette into floppy disk drive. then run SETUP.EXE. |
3.
|
Click
"PCCOM98 Setup Panel" to run configuration setup.
|
4.
|
Select
your card type and the correct address/IRQ value, then press [OK].
|
5.
|
When
a dialog box presents "Setup Complete", restart Windows NT to let
driver work or execute the following two commands :
|
net stop
serial
// stop the origin driver
net start
serial
// start our new driver
then our driver will start to
work.
6.
|
The
COM1 to COM9 can be directly referenced just like a filename from
program and from the command line. However, COM10 and above must be
referenced with the following syntax :
|
\\.\com10
Because the command line mode doesn't recognize ports above COM9.
7.
|
Don't
overlap port address and interrupt vector address, otherwise, it may
conflict with UART chips.
|
8.
|
If
you need install more than one card, please run "PCCOM98 Setup Panel"
again. Do not set the same address and interrupt.
