CP-134U V2 Smart Serial Board
Quick Installation Guide
Second Edition, December 2004
1. Overview
Moxa’s CP-134U V2 Series of Smart Multiport Serial Boards provides
Industrial Automation system integrators with long transmission
distance, multi-point, PC-based data acquisition solutions. Powered by
Moxa’s Turbo Serial Engine™ chip that comes with on-chip ADDC™
(Automatic Data Direction Control), sending RS-485 packets is as easy
as using RS-232. The on-chip ADDC™ feature delivers precise timing
control for enabling and disabling the line drivers used for 2-wire
RS-485 communication.
When configured for RS-422/485, each of CP-134U V2’s 4 serial ports
can transmit at up to 921.6 Kbps, and each RS-485 port can support up
to 31 daisy-chained serial devices in a 1.2 km multi-drop environment.
To help prevent equipment damage when using long distance RS-485
communication, choose CP-134U-I V2, which provides isolation
protection against voltage mismatches of up to 2 KV.
2. Package Checklist
Before installing the CP-134U V2 board, verify that the package
contains the following items:
! 1 CP-134U V2 4-port serial board
! Documentation and Software CD, which contains drivers for

Notify your sales representative if any of the above items is missing or
damaged.
3. Hardware Installation Procedure
The CP-134U V2 board MUST be plugged into the PC before the
driver is installed. Follow these steps to install the board in the PC.
STEP 1: Power off the PC.
STEP 2: Plug the CP-134U V2 control board firmly into an open 32-bit
or 64-bit PCI slot.
STEP 3: Use the on-board jumpers and DIP switches to set the serial
ports for RS-232, RS-422, or 2-/4-wire RS-485.*
STEP 4: Fasten the holding screw to fix the control board in place.
STEP 5: Power on the PC; the BIOS will automatically set the IRQ and
I/O address.
* Use the 30-pin jumper arrays and 2 DIP switches to set ports 1 and 2
to RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485, and use the 2 DIP switches to set ports
3 and 4 to RS-422 or RS-485. Jumper and DIP switch settings are given
in the following table.
