Selecting the Base Memory Address Location
The host computer and the card exchange data via a dual-port interface. The
dual-port interface is 16 Kbytes long; it begins at the specified base memory
address location.
The card comes set to memory address D000:0000. You may find that this
selected memory address has been allocated to other interface cards or expansion
memory cards you have installed in your computer system. If this occurs,
change the switch settings to an available memory address.
T

computer’s memory.
Be sure to choose a block that is 16 Kbytes long.

Selecting the Base I/O Space Address Location
The
host addresses I/O devices on the card by using their I/O space addresses.
The host addresses individual devices through registers that have addresses
based on the I/O space base address. The registers are 2 bytes (1 word) long.
The card comes set to base I/O space address 220. Y
ou may find that this
selected address has been allocated to other interface cards or expansion memory
cards you have installed in your computer system. If this occurs, change the
switch settings to an open address.
Important: When selecting configuration settings, check for conflicts with
other interface cards and system memory. If there is a conflict, the
system will not operate properly.
T
o select a new base I/O space address:
1. Pick an available address from the I/O map area of the host computer’s
memory.
Be sure to choose a block that is 2 bytes long.
Important: Each card requires 2 bytes of I/O space.
2.
Use W
orksheet D to select a new base I/O space address for the card
(i.e., to determine the switch settings for the new address).
