Software Installation
In this chapter, software driver installation, configuration and driver
upgrade/removal procedures are described for various operating systems, including
Windows NT, Windows 95/98 and UNIX. Before proceeding with software
installation, complete the hardware installation detailed in the previous chapter.
However, if you need to develop applications, refer to the next chapter, “Serial
Programming Tools”, for more information.
Windows NT
Windows NT supports up to 256 serial ports, from COM1 to COM256. To fully
integrate the advanced features of Windows NT, multi-process and multi-thread,
pure 32-bit Windows NT device drivers are developed for
Intellio C218Turbo/PCI
and other MOXA multiport boards. The driver conforms to Win32 COMM API
standard.
If you are the first time driver installer, please go directly to the section “Installing
Driver”.
If you already have installed the driver and want to re-configure the board and port,
add more boards or delete boards, please refer to the section “ Configuring Board
and Port”.
If you want to upgrade or even remove driver, please go to the section “Updating
Driver“ and section “Removing Driver”.
