When setting the address (via the dipswitch) use the silkscreen on
the printed circuit board. This silkscreen shows a “1” and a “0” to
refer to the “on and “off” states that each switch is set to. Switch S1
configures port one (labeled J1) and, on two port cards, switch S2
configures port two (labeled J2). Least significant bit (LSB) and most
significant bit (MSB) are labeled on the card. Table 1 shows the
numerical weight and electrical connection of each switch position.
Refer to Table 2 for COM port addresses. Table 3 shows frequently
unused port addresses for applications when COM port addresses
1-4 are already used.
To install the 3PXCC4A card as COM1, 2, 3, or 4, follow the
switch settings shown in Table 2. To install at another address,
