COM PORT SETTING OF MFC98 PC INTERFACE CARD
The MFC98 PC interface card acts as a special COM port card to communicate with the DX-1S digital
PABX. It is recommended to configure the MFC98 PC interface card to IRQ = 7, Address = COM4
(02e8). This is also the factory default setting of the PC Interface Card.
After inserting the card to PC, it also requires adding the COM port in Windows 98 Control Panel.
In Control Panel select Add New Hardware then follow the instruction to complete the installation.
(Detailed information about adding new hardware in Windows 98 please refers to Windows 98 manuals).

MFC98 software requires an initialization file, SETUP.INI which is a plain text file containing the setting
of MFC98 program. So, it is required to check / change the SETUP.INI file before the first execution of
the MFC98 program. The passwords in the SETUP.INI file should be modified by MFC98 SETUP MODE
and the other items should be modified by a text editor. The SETUP.INI file is located at the MFC98
program directory or user can edit it by click on SETUP in the START | PROGRAM | MFC98.
If the file is not existing, MFC98 will use its default value for operation. For connecting MFC98 via RIM-
