This appendix describes the differences between the PC-DIO-96PnP
and PC-DIO-96 boards, the PC-DIO-96 board configuration, and the
installation of the PC-DIO-96 into your computer. Read this appendix
only if you do not have the Plug and Play version of the board.
Differences between the PC-DIO-96PnP
and the PC-DIO-96
The PC-DIO-96PnP is a Plug and Play upgrade from a legacy board, the
PC-DIO-96. Legacy refers to the original board with switches and
jumpers used to set the addresses. The original legacy board was
replaced with a backwards-compatible, revised PC-DIO-96 that has the
same functionality as the Plug and Play version (except for the base
address and interrupt selection), but differs somewhat from the original
board. The following list compares the specifications and functionality
of the newer boards with the obsolete legacy board.
