Hitachi VisionBase 8880R Server
Settings for Each Resource
Referring to the manual of the extended board, either choose or enter the appropriate values. If some value overlaps
with the value of an existing extended board, an error message is displayed. After changing the settings for the
existing extended boards, make settings for each resource.
Reserving I/O Port Addresses
This utility automatically reserves higher 6-bit addresses by reserving lower 10-bit I/O address area. Although some
manuals related to the communication board (PC-CH2100) explain that four 16-bit addresses should be reserved,
you can load the configuration file recorded within the utility and then specify the lower 10 bits according to the
procedure.
Changing the Settings in Extended Boards
You can change settings in the extended board in use to change the values for the resources in use. This should be
done when:
•
You want to use resources that are being used by an extended board already installed.
•
You want to change setting values.
NOTE: When you need to install an extended board in or remove it from the system equipment, call the
maintenance personnel.
1.
Remove the extended board in advance.
After changing the settings, you need also to change the settings for short pins on the extended board. See the
vendor manual of the extended board.
2.
Start the ICU.
3.
In the [ISA Configuration Utility] window, select the board to be changed, and choose the [Modify] button.
Built-in devices must be added or exchanged by maintenance personnel only. Be sure to avoid
removing the cover and installing/removing built-in devices. Otherwise, operation of the equipment
shall not be guaranteed.
Be sure to avoid changing the setting of the IDE controller, otherwise the programs may malfunction.
