1 INTRODUCTION

The CIO-CTR##HD is really a single board with two (or four) CIO-CTR05's on it.
For the balance of this manual we will refer to both boards (-CTR10HD &

-CTR20HD) as the CIO-CTR##HD, and will only use the complete board name in
instances where there are items specific to one board or the other.

The CIO-CTR family is fully supported by the powerful Universal Library package.
Details regarding installation and usage of the Universal Library software can be
found in the Universal Library documentation. Please note that InstaCal (shipped with
the board) creates a configuration file required for programmers who use the
Universal Library programming libraries.

2 SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

The board has a variety of switches and jumpers to set before installing the board in
your computer. By far the simplest way to configure your board is to use the
InstaCal
you all available options, how to configure the various switches and jumpers (as
applicable) to match your application requirements, and will create a configuration
file that your application software (and the Universal Library) will refer to so the
software you use will automatically know the exact configuration of the board.

and operation of InstaCal

. The following hard copy information is provided as a

matter of completeness, and will allow you to set the hardware configuration of the

board if you do not have immediate access to InstaCal

and/or your computer.

3 HARDWARE INSTALLATION

We highly recommend that you use the InstaCAL procedure to guide you through
setting up your board. However, the following sections are provided in case you need
to set up your board and you do not have access to the InstaCAL program.

The CIO-CTR##HD has one bank of switches, a base address switch, and one jumper
block which must be set before installing the board in your computer.

3.1 BASE ADDRESS

Unless there is already a board
in your system which uses
address 300h (768 Decimal)
then you can leave the
switches as they are set at the
factory.

In the example shown here,
the CIO-CTR##HD is set for
base address 300h (768
Decimal).

Certain address are used by the PC, others are free and can be used by the
CIO-CTR##HD and other expansion boards. We recommend trying BASE = 300h
(768D) first.

The CIO-CTRHD BASE switch may be set for address in the range of 000-3F8 so it
should not be hard to find a free address area for your CIO-CTRHD. Once again, if
you are not using IBM prototyping cards or some other board which occupies these
