DigiBoard Intelligent Serial Communications Boards

Installation Tips

Installing your DigiBoard intelligent serial communications board is easy;
however, since the boards require unique I/O and memory addresses, you may
experience conflicts with other devices in your system.  To minimize installation
difficulties, two utilities have been provided:  

DIGIMMAP.EXE

, a program which

will help you find a block of available memory address space in your computer
(needed for the board’s dual ported memory), and 

UD-CISC.EXE

, a diagnostic

program which will verify that the board is functioning correctly, and help you to
identify any hardware problems with the board.  Both of these utilities are in the

\DIAGS

 directory of the DOS, AIO, OS/2 and Windows diskette which is

included with your board.

The flow chart below shows a good sequence to follow when installing your board.
Following this procedure will minimize installation difficulties and minimize the
need for calls to Technical Support.

Please run the memory map utility and diagnostics before
calling Technical Support for assistance.
