2.1 Hardware Installation
For all work on the PC and interface, you must be statically discharged. The
work must be carried out on an earthed, anti-static work-mat.
Carry out the following work in sequence:
(1) Establish a free memory segment on the PC of at least 8 kbyte in the
range < 1MB (ISA memory range) and a free IRQ. For this, read the
manual of your PC.
(2) Set this memory segment and the IRQ on the interface, as described in
Section 3.1.
(3) Switch the PC off and remove the mains plug.
(4) Open the PC according to the instructions of the PC-manufacturer and
determine a suitable plug-in space.
The interface is designed according to the PC-standard and can be easily
built into the computer. Do not use force when plugging in.
(5) Ensure that the interface is held safely in place in the PC.
(6) If your interface is assembled with 2 isolated CAN-circuits, you must fix
the additional slot plate and plug in the header on the interface (see
Section 3.2).
(7) Close the PC; the hardware installation is now completed.
2.2 Software Installation
To operate the interface, a driver is required.
For the installation of the CAN driver VCI under Win95/98/NT/2000, please read
the VCI installation manual.
