Installing
With the computer off, insert the adapter in an available ISA slot and
power on. Once in NT, check Ports
Ports Ports Ports Ports in the Control Panel Control Panel Control Panel Control Panel Control Panel . You should
see the additional serial port(s) listed here now. This port(s) will now
function at the UART specified by the card’s jumper and can be used
now. Keep in mind that, under the Port
Port Port Port Port properties, the baud rates will
be the same regardless of the UART. When operating in high speed
mode, make sure to multiply the baud rate by 4. So a 9600 in normal
mode would be 38400 in high speed mode (9600 x 4 = 38400).
Troubleshooting
If the port fails to work, make sure that it showed up under Ports Ports Ports Ports Ports after
installing the card. If you do not see any additional ports listed after
installing the card, then your BIOS is not recognizing it. Also make
sure that in Control Panel> Services
Control Panel> Services Control Panel> Services Control Panel> Services Control Panel> Services , that the Plug and Play Service Plug and Play Service Plug and Play Service Plug and Play Service Plug and Play Service is
started and set to “automatic”. This service is not the same as having
the PNPISA utility on the NT CD installed. Otherwise, make sure
your BIOS is set to a non-PNP OS and that PCI configuration is set to
“automatic”
