Chapter 2 Installing drivers and host cards

3. Select Multi-function adapters and then Next.

4. Select Have Disk and then Next.

5. Select your AT-FAST card from the list shown and then select Next.

6. Select Next when the card hardware parameters are displayed.

7. Now restart your system.

Note:

Windows 95 already has the ability to select the baud rates 230.4 kbps and 460.8 kbps, but
for 16 bit programs running on the system that may not have this ability it is possible to
instead map 57.6 kbps and 115.2 kbps to these rates.

The AT-FAST supports auto flow control, this generally works best when linked with a
device (such as another 16650) that also supports this. If you find that performance is not as
good with auto flow control selected then you can disable it on a per port basis.

The above options can be changed via the advanced tab on the ports properties dialog box
located under the device manager tab of the system icon in Control Panel, after the card
has been installed.
