11. Press F10 to save the changes.
12. Remove the jumper from the board.
13. Close the housing and reboot the VLC (CTRL+ALT+DEL)
The RS485 version of the 4-port card additionally has 4 jumpers to enable the line termination resistors and
eight dip switches to select the behavior of the RS485/RS422 ports. The VLC software uses a RS422 4-wire
cabling with most of the equipment. The switch positions to operate all ports in RS422 mode is shown
below:
The jumpers for enabling the termination resistors are places beside the connector at the board's bracket. By
closing the pins with a jumper, a termination resistor of 120 ohms gets placed across the receive lines of the
port.
Serial IO Hardware Setting (8-PORT / 1)
The first Moxa Smartio/Industrio 8-port board in a VLC is operated at at 0x180 / IRQ 10, which is the
factory default setting for these boards. So, usually the board can be used out of the box.
If you want to install a board which already has been configured to work as second or third board in a
VLC, you have to reset the IO/IRQ settings of this board. The following steps describe how to install the
card into a running VLC.
1. Shut down the VLC, switch it off.
2. Open the housing.
3. Install the board in a free slot.
4. Install the jumper at the rounded corner of the board (it's the only jumper on this board).
