Configuration and Installation
This chapter describes the PC-DIO-96 jumper configurations, installing the PC-DIO-96 board in
your computer, signal connections to the PC-DIO-96 board, and cabling instructions.
Board Configuration
The PC-DIO-96 contains one DIP switch and one jumper to configure the base I/O address and
interrupts, respectively. The DIP switch and jumper are shown in the parts locator diagram in
Figure 2-1.
The PC-DIO-96 is configured at the factory to a base I/O address of hex 180 and to interrupt
level 5. These settings (shown in Table 2-1) are suitable for most systems. However, if your
system has other hardware at this base I/O address or interrupt level, you need to change these
settings on the PC-DIO-96 (as described in the following pages) or on the other hardware.
Record your settings in the PC-DIO-96 Hardware and Software Configuration Form in
Appendix D, Customer Communication.
