If you are ready with the jumper settings, please proceed with the following installation instruc-
tions. Because there are large differences between PC’s, we can give you only a general installa-
tion guide. Please refer to your computer’s reference manual whenever in doubt.
1. Turn off the power to your computer and any other connected peripherals.
2. Remove the mounting screws located at the rear and/or sides panels of your Computer
and gently slide the cover off.
3. Locate an available expansion slot and remove its covers from the rear panel of your
computer. Make sure it is the right expansion slot for the card (see card description)
4. Align the card with the expansion slot, and then gently but firmly, insert the card. Make
sure the card is seated and oriented correctly. Never insert the card by force!
5. Then connect the card with a screw to the rear panel of the computer case.
6. Gently replace your computer’s cover and the mounting screws.

Die EX-44098-2 ist eine PCI-Express serielle RS-232 Karte mit acht seriellen FIFO 16C95x
Ports, für den Anschluss von High-Speed seriellen RS-232 Peripherie Geräten (z.B. Terminal,
Modem, Plotter usw.). Der serielle PCI-Express Bus unterstützt dabei optimal die Leistung des
schnellen 16C95x Chip-Set mit 128byte FIFO Cache. Die EX-44098-2 gewährleistet so eine
sichere Datenübertragung und exzellente Performance von bis zu 921Kbaud/s für jedes
angeschlossene Gerät! Sie unterstützt alle PCI-Express Slots von x1 bis x16. Es ist nicht
möglich die I/O Adressen und Interrupts manuell einzustellen, da die Einstellungen der Karte
vom System (BIOS) und beim installieren des Betriebssystems automatisch vorgenommen
werden.

After starting Windows it recognizes a new “PCI Controller“ and opens the hardware assis-
tant. Please choose manual installation and put the driver CD into your CD-ROM drive. Now
enter the Path "D:\IO\OXFORD\" and then the directory of your operating system into the box
for the Path/Source and click at >next/continue<. Now Windows searches for the drivers in
the specified directory. Follow the hardware assistant and finish the installation. If Windows
recognizes other new devices repeat the above described steps. Attention! Restart Windows
in any case after installing the drivers.
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER
Click at Start<>Run< then enter “compmgmt.msc“ and click at >OK<. In the windows that
opens select >Device Manager<. Under „Ports (COM and LPT)“ you should find a new „PCI
Port“ as sample (Com3). If you see this or similar entries the card is installed correctly.
CHANGE PORT NUMBER
If you like to change the port number for example COM3 to COM5, open the >Device Manager<
click at >COM3<, >Settings< and then >Advance<. There you can change between COM3 to
COM256.
Windows Server 200x
After starting Windows it recognizes a new “PCI Controller“ and opens the hardware assis-
tant. Please choose manual installation and put the driver CD into your CD-ROM drive. Now
enter the Path "D:\IO\OXFORD\" and then the directory of your operating system for Server
2000 “2000“, for Server 2003 “XP32“ or “XP64“, for Server 2008 „Vista32“ or „Vista64“, for
Server 2008 R2 „Win7_8_32bit“ or „Win7_8_64bit“ into the box for the Path/Source and click
at >next/continue<. Now Windows searches for the drivers in the specified directory. Follow
the hardware assistant and finish the installation. If Windows recognizes other new devices
repeat the above described steps. Attention! Restart Windows in any case after installing the
drivers.
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER
Click at Start<>Run< then enter “compmgmt.msc“ and click at >OK<. In the windows that
opens select >Device Manager<. Under „Ports (COM and LPT)“ you should find a new „PCI
Port“ as sample (Com3). If you see this or similar entries the card is installed correctly.
CHANGE PORT NUMBER
If you like to change the port number for example COM3 to COM5, open the >Device Manager<
click at >COM3<, >Settings< and then >Advance<. There you can change between COM3 to
COM256.
Windows NT 4.0
Start Windows NT and insert the driver CD into your CD-ROM drive (for example D:). Click at
>Start< >Run< and enter „D:\IO\OXFORD\NT4\Install_Serial.exe" then click >OK<. Windows
NT will now start the setup program and install the driver. Please Restart Windows NT after
installing the drivers.
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER
Click at >Start< >Programs< >Administrative Tools[Common]< >Windows NT-
Diagnostics< then click at >Resource< >IRQ<. Here you should find the entry „09 oxser 0
PCI“. Then click at >I/O-Port< here you should see the entries „D400-D407 oxser 0 PCI“
„D800-D802 oxser 0 PCI“ and „DC00-DC1F oxser 0 PCI“ for the ports. The I/O
addresses can change depends which system and card is installed. If you see these or similar
entry's the card is installed correctly.
LINUX
There are no drivers available for Linux, but the card is supported by the most versions of
Linux. Because each individual distribution and kernel version of Linux is different, sadly we
cant provide a installation instruction. Please refer to the installation manual for standard I/O
ports from your Linux version! In some newer versions the card will even be installed automati-
cally after starting Linux.
