4.2 COM Port Number Settings
Under Port Number, select a COM number to assign to the serial port. Click
“
OK
” to approve the settings for the selected port.
Note:
In order to prevent system resource conflict, do not select
“
in use
” port.
4.3 COM I/O Resource
User can read the COM
“
IO Range
” and “
IRQ
” located in system by selecting
COM port.
IRQ and I/O address is automatically assigned by the mainboard PCI (PCI
Express) BIOS automatically (before COM card driver installing). User can
NOT assign legacy ISA address (3F8, 3E8, 2F8, 2E8) for the specific COM
port. But for IRQ setting, user can set specific IRQ value for this PCI Express
bus slot via mainboard
’s BIOS settings (not via SUNIX driver). But all COM
ports will share one IRQ value.
