Installation Instructions
Introduction
Digi's two port Universal Interface Card can auto­mati cal ly deter mine, fr o m th e cable, th e interf a ce bus type to use with the peripheral device. That is, you can select an interface type for the adapter (V.35, X.21, EIA-530, or EIA-232) just by connect­ing the appropriate cable between the adapter and the peripheral device. Each of the ports on the daughter card can use t he same or a di fferent type of interface cable, giving you the flexib ility to use one adapter to connect to periph er als with two different interface types.
Figure 1: SYNC/570i and Universal Interface Card

Installing the Adapter

Before you begin
Before installing the SYNC/570i adap ter and daugh­ter card, you should do the following:
Be sure that you have the correct cables for the interface type(s) you will use with the SYNC/ 570i. Depending on the package you ordered, you will have one or two cables.
Record the adapter ’ s serial number (located under the part number lab el a s shown in Figure 1), which will enable Digi to provi de you with better service, should the need arise.
Unplug power from the PC.
Discharge static electricity from your body by touching a grounded surfa ce (prior to handling the adap t er ).
Put a ground st rap on to ground yours elf. (If one is not available, ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface, such as the computer’s chassis.)
Installation Procedure
1.
Install the adapter.
a.
Remove the computer’s cover.
b.
Locate an availa ble PCI slot in your computer and remove the slot plate.
c.
Insert the adapter into the slot and screw the endplate to the comput er chas sis. The endpl ate must be screwed into the computer chassis to remain in compliance with Part 15 of FCC rules.
d.
Replace the computer’s cover.
2.
Conn ect cab l es. One end o f ea ch cab l e is labelled with the interface type. Attach that end to the peripheral. Attach the other end to an adapter port. (Additional cabling informa tion is provided on this card.)
3.
Boot th e computer .
4.
Run Digi’s diagnostics program. The SYNC/570i PCI diagnosti cs are suppli ed on a
diskette that is shipped with the adapter. You should run the diagnostics to verify that you can communicate with t he periphe ral de vices. Ref er to the text file on the diskette for information on using the diagnostics.
Note:
The LEDs showing through the faceplate on the adapter will not light until a driver is load ed a n d th e a da p ter init ialize d . W ith the Dig i driv er loa de d, th e gree n LE D wi ll light to indicate that the adapter is in a “ready” state. The amber LED will light when data is passe d to the peripheral device.
What next?
Install and configure the softwa re for the Digi SYNC/570i PCI ada pter.

Usage Note

If you change the interface of a port (by chang­ing the interface ca ble) while your system is up, the new interface may not be recognized until the driver is restarted.

If you have a problem

If you have difficulty communicating with a peripheral con nec ted to your SYNC/570i adapter, call Digi Support Services to obtain a diagnostic to use, and assistance in using it.
If you have a problem booting your s ystem after installation of your SYNC/570i adapter, you should call Digi Support Services for assistance.

Cabling Information

p

y
,
,
The cables included with your adapter are designed with custom components and cannot be indepen­dently manufac tured. If you require multiple periph­eral cables of one type, you may order additional cables from Digi. To extend the length of a Digi cable, use standard interface cabling between the end of Digi’s cable and the peripheral.

Interface Pino uts

Each cable p r ovided by Digi has a 26-pin HDD con­nector on one end, which attaches to a port on the Universal Interface Card. The other end of the cable will provide signals according to the interfa ce stan­dards. The pinout information for ea ch o f the cables follows.
