1. Login as root user (Superuser).
You must login as root. You can check it from the prompt as shown below. (Default: If you login without the root account, it will show $, but when you did, # is displayed.)
<Root Account>
<Unprivileged Account>
2. GCC (GNU C Compiler)
Check if you have the GCC installed. When you type ‘gcc –v’ and the result shows “gcc: command not found”, the GCC is not installed. You must install it before installing the driver.
<GCC installed>
<GCC not installed>

3. Kernel Source
sysbas@utu:/tmp$ cd /user/src sysbas@utu:/src$ ls
linux-headers-3.0.0-12 linux-headers-3.0.0-12-generic
sysbas@utu:/tmp$ cd /user/src sysbas@utu:/src$ ls

sysbas@utu:/tmp$ make -v make: command not found
Check whether the kernel source files are installed. Type ‘cd /usr/src’ and check the result. If you can't found kernel source under the directory, you must install the kernel source files before installing the driver.
<Kernel source installed>
<Kernel source not installed>
4. Make
Check whether the “make” is installed. Type ‘make –v’ and check the result. When it shows “make: command not found”, the “make” is not installed. You must install make. You must install the “make” before installing the driver.
<Make installed>
<Make not installed>

1. Please check whether the power is off from your PC.
2. Install a PCI/PCIe Multi-port card in the PCI/PCIe slot of the PC.
3. If you have any external cables for each port, please connect the cables to the card.
4. Turn on the PC.
5. After the Linux boots, login with the administrator ID as root.
6. Run the device driver file named “eh_async_mpdrv.v19.sh”.
The device driver file is an executable file. You could just type the name in shell followed by “./”. After you execute the file, you can see a sub directory named “eh_async_mpdrv.v19” with installation information like a below image. You will see the followings: model name of the multiport, type of serial interface­RS232/RS422/RS485, port name and version in the installation information
6. Remove
1. Go to the directory where the driver is installed.
If you installed the driver at “~/tmp”, please go to “~/tmp/eh_async_mpdrv.v19”
directory.
2. Run Remove command as follows.
#./Remove
3. All the installed files will be removed automatically after executing Remove
command.

7. Testing
root@utu:/tmp/eh_async_mpdrv.v19/async_multiport# ./sb_test Usage: ./sb_test [Port Name] [Baudrate] [TestMode] Port Name : /dev/ttyMP0 ~ /dev/ttyMP32 Baudrate : 9600, 19200, ... TestMode : 0(Loopback) 1(Send) 2(Recv) root@utu:/tmp/eh_async_mpdrv.v17/async_multiport#
root@utu:/tmp/eh_async_mpdrv.v19/async_multiport# ./sb_test /dev/ttyMP0 9600 0 Loopback Test Mode ! a ab abc abcd abcde abcdef abcdefg abcdefgh abcdefghi abcdefghij abcdefghijk abcdefghijkl abcdefghijklm abcdefghijklmn abcdefghijklmno abcdefghijklmnop
#cd async_multiport #./sb_test [Port Name] [Baudrate] [TestMode] If you want to know how to use the sb_test, you just type the name without any argument. And then you can see the method of the usage.
Usage: ./sb_test [Port Name] [Baudrate] [TestMode] Port Name : /dev/ttyMP0 ~ /dev/ttyMP32 Baudrate : 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800, 921600 TestMode : 0 (Loopback) 1 (Send) 2 (Receive) Example : $./sb_test /dev/ttyMP0 9600 0 $./sb_test /dev/ttyMP5 921600 0 $./sb_test /dev/ttyMP3 115200 1 (Note) There is a blank space after “/sb_test“ and before “/dev/”.
After you connect the loopback connector to the port you wish to test, you can test it by using the loopback mode. The test pattern is “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz” and the program generates characters from “a” to “z” repeatedly increasing by one character.
When the multi-port card driver is installed correctly, you will see the test result repeatedly as shown above.
