 Reference Information – 4.37

Onboard FDD Controller

Enables or Disables the onboard Floppy Drive controller.

Onboard Serial Port 1/2

Sets the I/O address for serial ports 1 & 2.

3F8/IRQ4

Onboard serial port COM1 default

2F8/IRQ3

Onboard serial port COM2 default

3E8/IRQ4

2E8/IRQ3

Disabled

UART 2 Mode

Sets mode for the second serial port UART. If you select an IR

module type, the second serial port will not be available. The
setting options are:

Standard (default) – (used by COM2 serial port)

ASKIR

HPSIR

The infrared mode you select here should be the same as the

infrared module you are connected to the mainboard. You can
also manually configure the Duplex, RxD and TxD settings if the
defaults are not correct for the installed module. See the screen
illustration on the next page.
