Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to configure the U
P0/E
PCI card?
Because the U
P0/E
PCI card was developed for the PCI bus, you sim-
ply need to install it in your PC and the system will automatically as-
sign this card the necessary interrupt and I/O address.
However, problems may arise in some computers that use the PCI
bus together with the ISA/EISA bus. In this case, you must use the
setup program in the computer’s BIOS to assign separate interrupts
to the ISA/EISA slots and the PCI slots; otherwise, the computer
will not detect the card (see documentation on the setup program
for your computer).
Which PCI slot should I use for the U
P0/E
PCI card?
You can install the U
P0/E
PCI card in any free, long PCI slot.
Is the U
P0/E
PCI card compatible with PCI spec 2.1?
The U
P0/E
PCI card is compatible with PCI spec 2.1.
Which interrupt should I use for the U
P0/E
PCI card?
Because the U
P0/E
PCI card is a PCI card, you usually do not have to
select an interrupt. It is configured by the system. If this is not the
case, you must configure the interrupt manually. To configure the in-
terrupt manually, insert a jumper on the motherboard or set an in-
terrupt in the motherboard’s BIOS. In either case, you can select any
interrupt that is not being used by another ISA/EISA plug-in card.
Keep in mind that the interrupt settings on your motherboard and in
the BIOS must agree.
