LINUX Installation Procedures

For Linux Kernel 2.4.18 and above (including RedHat V8.0), IO-104 serial ports can be

automatically detected and installed. The following descriptions show the necessary steps

to double check that the IO-104 serial ports have been configured correctly by the Linux

platform:

1. Plug in the IO-104 card and start the system. After boot up, log in as supervisor, or use

'su' as shown below:

[test@lnx test]$ su

Password:

2. Check the PCI device status:

[root@lnx test]# lspci -v

....

00:0d.0 Serial controller: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd OX16PCI954 (Quad 16950

UART function 0 (prog-if 06 [16950])

Subsystem: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd: Unknown device 0000

Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 9

I/O ports at c400 [size=32]

Memory at dfffc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]

I/O ports at c000 [size=32]

Memory at dfffb000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]

Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2

....

If output of the lspci -v shows something like above, your PCI IO-104 card has been

correctly detected by the system.

3. Next we will check that the available serial ports reside in the system:

[root@lnx test]# more /proc/tty/driver/serial

serinfo:1.0 driver revision:

0: uart:16550A port:000003F8 irq:4 tx:0 rx:0

1: uart:16550A port:000002F8 irq:3 tx:0 rx:0

2: uart:16450 port:0000CC00 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

3: uart:16450 port:0000CC08 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

4: uart:16C950/954 port:0000C400 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

5: uart:16C950/954 port:0000C408 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

6: uart:16C950/954 port:0000C410 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

7: uart:16C950/954 port:0000C418 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0

[root@lnx test]#

Listed as the UART 4~7 now are the serial ports from IO-104, and are assigned as

ttyS4 ~ ttyS7. The number may vary depending upon how many serial ports you

have originally installed.

The four IO-104 UARTs are now ready to use.

MS-DOSinstallation

This is a DOS command line program that sets the PCI IO card's UART/parallel

address to available COM/LPT ports.

To start the setup automatically, add SETIO.EXE to autoexec.bat file and copy SETIO.EXE

to c:\. Simply delete the SETIO.EXE line in the autoexec.bat file if you later decide not to

run it automatically.

To run the program manually, after bootup, type SETIO at the command prompt and hit

enter key.

Usage: setio [/option]

Options:

none :no parameters, set up system COM/LPT ports

Set PCIIO card's uart/parallel ports to available COM/LPT slots.

/u x :set uart starting address, x=io address in hex.

Assign uarts' starting address before setting up the COM ports.

eg. c:\>setio /u c400

/c :show card's config. info.

Display card's PCI bus information, IRQ, its port address and

mapping to system COM/LPT.

/s :show seg40 system resources.

Show system COM/LPT ports' address.

/h, /?:display help message.
