Introduction

The PCI8S9503V 8 Port PCI RS232 Serial Adapter Card High Speed 16950 (cable

included) lets you connect up to 8 RS-232 serial devices to the host computer at data

rates up to 921 Kbps, and can be installed in either a 3.3V or 5V PCI/PCI-X slot.

The PCI4S9503V 4 Port PCI RS232 Serial Adapter Card High Speed 16950 (cable

included) lets you connect up to 4 RS-232 serial devices to the host computer at

transfer rates up to 921 Kbps, and can be installed in either a 3.3V or 5V PCI/PCI-X slot.

The PCI serial card uses a 16 Byte buer simultaneously in both transmit and receive

channels, reducing the number of CPU interrupts while improving system performance.

Ideally suited to industrial applications, the buered Serial PCI card is compatible

with a broad range of operating systems, including Windows®, DOS®, Linux, and Unix

operating environments.

Backed by a StarTech.com Lifetime warranty and free lifetime technical support.

Instruction Manual

Installation

Note: In one system, you can install two of these serial cards. You must dierentiate

between the two cards by using the jumper (located near the end of the card). The

card with the jumper ON will be card number 1. The card with the jumper OFF will be

card number 2. Install the cards one at a time, starting with the card you want to be

designated number 1.

Installing the Card

1. Make sure that your system is unplugged and you are grounded.

2. Remove the cover of your system (see your computer’s user manual for details, if

necessary) and gently turn your computer onto its side.

3. Locate an empty PCI slot (usually white in colour) and remove the metal plate that

covers the rear bracket. You may need a Phillips screwdriver to perform this step.

Hang on to the screw! You will need it to secure the card later.

4. Gently insert the card into the empty slot, making sure it is rmly seated.

5. Secure the card in place using the screw you removed in Step 3 and put your

computer case back on.

6. Plug the 37-pin end of the serial cable into the port on the card.

7. Turn the computer on.

Driver Installation

Note: Depending on your operating system and the conguration of your system, the

instructions below may not be identical to what you see on your screen.

Instruction Manual

Windows Vista/XP/2000

Once you turn your computer on after installing the card, Windows will automatically

detect the new hardware. Follow the onscreen prompts and direct Windows to the

appropriate folder on the driver disk

Notes:

• To change the COM port number: Windows will automatically assign the card a

COM port number. If you need to specify another port number, you can use the

setup utility included with the driver. Go to: Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device

Manager/Multi-Port Serial Adapter/Setup. From here you will be able to set the

target value.

• Each serial card needs an open IRQ for Plug and Play function.

Windows NT

Before you begin the installation, make sure you are logged in as a user with

administrative privileges.

1. Start the Control Panel applet by double-clicking on its icon in the Program

Managers main group.

2. Double-click the Network icon to bring up the Network Control Panel applet.

3. Select Add Adapter. A list of possible adapters will be displayed. Select “Other:

Requires disk from manufacturer.”

4. When prompted for the path, specify the location of the driver for the card you

installed. Depending on your version of the driver disk, the drivers may be found in

the P584/NT4 folder.

5. Follow the onscreen prompts to complete installation. Make sure that the COM port

number does not conict with any other devices in your system.

Use the“Binding”functiontomakemoreserial ports available. Ifyoudo notperform abinding

function, youmay nothavean extraCOMport availablein yournextboot procedure.

Notes:

• When installing two cards in the same system, the card with the jumper ON will be

assigned the lower COM port number. The card with the jumper OFF will have the

higher COM port number.

Instruction Manual

DOS

When installing multiple cards in DOS, it is important to install the card designated

card Number 1 (with the jumper ON) rst.

1. Change your active directory to the target directory:

ex: c:\RAYON

2. Insert the driver disk into the disk drive and copy the DOS les from the driver diskette:

ex: xcopy /s/e/v a:\DOS\*.*

3. Run the driver installation command:

ex: c:\rayon\pciport

4. The cards will now be installed in your system. Each card will show the card number

in the system (for the application to specify the target card and target port), the card

model, the card jumper setting (for card number 1 or 2), the IRQ assigned, and the

COM port number for the card.

You may see the following error messages:

• PCIPORT already installed. This means the driver has already been installed.

• Please check the“JP1”. This means that both cards in the system have their jumpers ON.

• PCIPORT not in system. There is no card in the PCI slot.

Notes:

The driver function call description can be found on the DOS driver diskette. There is

also a DEMO program for the user to meet their target application program.

Instruction Manual

LINUX

1. Login as super-user (SU) or root.

2. Change your directory to root and copy the driver diskette to the system:

# cd /

# tar xvf /dev/fd0

3. Change the directory to /etc/pciport and run the Install command:

# cd /etc/pciport

# ./Install

4. Follow the prompts to perform the following:

• Choose your Linux kernel version

• Rebuild your system

• Exit and reboot with new settings

The device name will be /dev/tty8[1--2] [a--h]

Card Denitions

Card Number Device Name

1 tty81?

2 tty82?

Note: Card 1 is the card with the jumper ON.

Instruction Manual

I/O Port Number Denitions

Port Number Device Name

A tty8?a

B tty8?b

C tty8?c

D tty8?d

E tty8?e

F tty8?f

G tty8?g

H tty8?h

For example, the device named /dev/tty82b is the device plugged into port B on card

Number 2.

Notes:

• The above installation procedure installs a module type driver. If you can not install

the driver successfully, you may need to use a kernel type driver. You will need to

enter the Build directory and run Install again. In kernel type drivers, you may need

to have the full source le for the Linux system to be re-compiled.

• Each serial card needs an open IRQ for Plug and Play function.

Instruction Manual

SCO OpenServer

1. Log in as a super-user (SU) or root.

2. Extract all the les on the diskette using the tar command:

# cd /

# tar xvf /dev/fd0135ds18

3. Change the directory to /etc/pciport and run the Build command:

# cd /etc/pciport

# ./build

4. Reboot your system.

The device name will be /dev/tty8[1--2] [a--h]

Card Denitions

Card Number Device

1 tty81?

2 tty82?

Note: Card 1 is the card with the jumper ON.
