ISI4608 Hardware Installation
This chapter provides you with the procedures to install the Multi-
Tech ISI4608 card(s) in your ISA or EISA bus personal computer (or
compatible with 16 bit ISA slot).
Hardware installation involves:
1) Opening your PC.
2) Setting card configuration (determining I/O address DIP-Switch
setting and IRQ jumper setting).
3) Installing the card into the PC.
Determining Current System Settings
When you install a device in your computer, the processor must have
a means of routing information to and from the device and the device
must have a means of gaining the processor's attention. These are
called Input/Output (
I/O) addresses and Interrupt Requests (IRQs),
respectively. The ISI4608 card requires 16 I/O addresses and one
IRQ value which are not used by any other device in your system.
