ISI5634PCI/4/8 User Guide

Note: A base I/O address of 0, e.g., ISIBaseX=oxo, or omission of these

parameters for any card X, disables that particular card.

Miscellaneous:

Device files corresponding to ports on the ISI5634PCI cards are created in

the /dev folder. Use

ttyMxy

for normal ports and

cumxy

for

corresponding callout ports. The letter

x

is the card number (1–4), and

y

is the port number, (a–d) for 4-port cards or (a-h) for 8-port cards.
Normal ports (

ttyM

) are configured for dial-in connections. Callout

ports (

cum

) are used for dial-out connections.

To view busy I/O address space on your system, enter:

cat /proc/ioports

To view busy IRQs, enter:

cat /proc/interrupts

To load the driver manually, use

insmod

.

Example: To load two ISI cards configured with base I/O addresses 0x210

and 0x200 and IRQs 5 and 10, enter the following in the destination folder:

i

nsmod isicom

ISIBase1=0x210

Irq1=5

ISIBase2=0x200

Irq2=10

To remove the driver manually, enter

rmmod isicom

. This removes

the driver only if no ISI ports are in use.

Removing the ISI Driver (Linux)

1. Type

cd /usr/local

. Press ENTER.

2. Type

rm -r ISICOM

. Press ENTER.

3. This will remove driver for all ISI5634PCI cards in that Linux server.
4. Remove the isictl file by typing “

rm isictl

” in the /dev directory.

5. Remove all devices that start with ttyM1x, ttyM2x, ttyM3x and ttyM4x

in the /dev directory.
