4.1 Installation

The deposition control software uses a hardware interrupt (IRQ) to communicate with
the SQM-142 card. Before installation, your computer BIOS and Windows operating
system must be configured to accept the SQM-142 card,

Identify an
Unused Interrupt

WIN 9X/ME: Open Control Panel, System, Device Manager,
Properties.

WIN NT: Open Administrative Tools, NT Diagnostics ,
Resources

WIN 2000: Open Accessories, System Tools , System Info,
Hdwe Resources

Find an unused IRQ. The default SQM-142 setting is IRQ 10.

Set SQM-142
Jumpers

Set JP2 to an available IRQ.

JP3 sets the I/O address. The default address (180) will work
on most systems.

Note: A slave card requires no IRQ jumper, and an address
400 above the primary card address. See address settings

Reserve IRQ in
the BIOS

The computer BIOS is usually accessed by pressing a key
during startup - consult your computer manual. In the BIOS,
reserve the IRQ selected on JP2 of the SQM-142 for an ISA
card. Be sure to save changes on exit.
