Configuring the 9220-KTCT

Before installing the 9220-KTCT inside your computer, you must
determine if you need to change the card’s default physical addresses.

To reset these addresses, you set switches on the card. The 9220-KTCT
comes factory-set with these addresses:

D000:0000

Important: When deciding which addresses to use, remember that:

• each card in your computer must have unique addresses

If another card in the host computer is using one or both of the
factory-set addresses, you must change a card’s switch settings to
an available address. If there is a conflict, the system will not
operate properly.

• you cannot mix 8-bit and 16-bit cards in a 64K segment boundary

That is, a 9220-KTCT and 1784-KT/B cannot be placed in the same
segment range of D000:0000 – DFFF:0000 or C000:0000 –
CFFF:0000. The 8-bit card may not work in this setup.

The two cards, 9220-KTCT (16-bit) and KT/B (8-bit), can be placed
with one in the C000:0000 – CFFF:0000 range and one in the
D000:0000 – DFFF:0000 range.

Selecting the Base Memory Address Location

The host computer and the 9220-KTCT card exchange data via a
dual-port interface. The dual-port interface is 16 Kbytes long and it
begins at the specified base memory address location.

The 9220-KTCT card comes set to memory address D000:0000. If this
memory address has been allocated to other interface cards or expansion
memory cards you have installed in your computer system, change the
9220-KTCT’s switch settings to an available memory address.

To select a new base memory address:

1. Pick an available memory address for the card, using the ROM I/O

adapters area of your host computer’s memory and Worksheet A,
on page 5. Be sure to choose a block that is 16 Kbytes long.

2. Determine the proper switch settings for this new address, using

Worksheet B, on page 6.

3. Set the switches on the 9220-KTCT to the new address, using the

ControlNet ISA/EISA Bus Tool Installation Instructions 7

Selecting the Base I/O Space Address Location

The host addresses I/O devices on the 9220-KTCT card by using their
I/O space address. The host addresses individual devices through
registers that have addresses based on the I/O space base address.
The registers are 2 bytes long.

The 9220-KTCT is preset to base I/O space address 220. If this address
has been allocated to other interface cards or expansion memory cards
installed in your computer system, you must change the 9220-KTCT’s
switch settings to an open address.

To select a new base I/O space address:

1. Select a new base I/O space address for the card (i.e., to determine the

switch settings for the new address) using the I/O map area of your
host computer’s memory, and Worksheet D, on page 8. Be sure to
choose a block that is 2 bytes long.

Important: The 9220-KTCT card requires 2 bytes of I/O space

for each device.

2. Set the switches to the new base I/O address, using the guide below:

Setting the Card’s Switches

ATTENTION: This card uses CMOS technology, which

is highly sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD

!

may be present whenever you are handling this card.
Handling this card without any ESD protection can cause

internal circuit damage that may not be apparent during
installation or initial use. A grounding wrist strap has been
shipped with the 9220-KTCT to be worn during the
installation procedure. Instructions for use of the strap are
found on the back of its package.

Take these precautions to guard
against ESD damage:

• Before handling the card, be sure

to wear the provided static strap and
touch a grounded object to discharge
any built-up static charge.

• Avoid touching the backplane connector or

interface connector pins located on the card.

• If the card is not in use, store it in the static bag

that the card was shipped in.

wrist-strap
grounding
device

Important: Remember, a computer with ac power

disconnected is not a grounded object.

Important: When selecting configuration settings, check for conflicts

with other interface card and system memory. If there is a
conflict, the host computer will not operate properly.

If you have a 386, 486, or Pentium host computer, you must
disable caching and shadow memory for at least the 16K
of memory space occupied by each 9220-KTCT card.
This can usually be accomplished through your CMOS
setup program or memory manager, and must be done
before running applications with the 9220-KTCT card.
