Before removing the card from the anti-static protective packaging:
• Discharge any static electricity buildup on your body by
touching a large grounded metal surface or the metal
chassis on equipment connected to earth ground by a 3-wire
power cord.
• Avoid touching the gold connectors or other parts on the
card except as necessary to set the configuration jumpers.
• Remove AC power from the computer before inserting the
card.
• Retain the ESD bag for handling the card.
CAUTION: ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICE
Use ESD precautions for safe handling.

Chapter 1
: General Information
Introduction
The 3PCI2 Dual Port serial interface card is designed to work with
Windows based IBM compatible computers with a PCI bus. The card
is Plug and Play compatible which permits the Windows Operating
System and driver to set the addresses and IRQ used by the card.
If you are developing your own software, make sure that the
communications routines support Windows communication drivers
and a wide range of COM ports (Com1 to Com16 or higher).

• Windows 95/98/2000/XP Compatible Drivers
• Buffered High Speed 16C950A UARTs (16C550 Compatible)
128 byte FIFOs for input/output with selectable trigger
thresholds
• Supports baud rates to 460.8K baud
• RS-232/422/485 mode independently selectable each port
• RS-232 Mode – All eight signals including DCD & RI
• RS-422 Mode – Supports Transmit & Receive signal pairs
• RS-485 Mode – Supports Transmit & Receive signal pairs for
half or full duplex connections.

Quick Start
CAUTION: ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICE
1. Before removing the card from the anti-static protective
packaging, discharge any static electricity on yourself.
2. Set the Operating Mode Jumpers for each port to match the
mode desired.
Use the Jumper/Mode Table in Chapter 2.
3. Unplug the computer Power Cord to prevent accidentally
turning the computer on during installation.
4. Install the Card, replace the cover.
5. Reconnect the Power Cord.
6. While power is off, connect your cables (or wait Step 15).
7. Start the computer (as Administrator 2000/XP).
8. Insert the driver disc in your CD-ROM drive.
9. Wait until new hardware is detected.
10. Proceed with Installation according to your Operating
System. See Chapter 3.
11. Check for new Com ports in Device Manager.
12. Select Driver Settings for DTR Control.
13. Set Com number as needed.
14. Prepare your cable connections to match the connector
pinouts
. See Chapter 5 (RS-232) or 6 (RS-422 or RS-485).
15. Shut down your computer before connecting the cables.
16. Connect your RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 cables.
17. Power up your computer.
18. Verify operation of each port with your hardware.

Chapter 2:
Setup
Inspection
Your 3PCI2 serial card was tested for proper operation before
packaging. It should be in perfect mechanical and electrical condition
upon receipt.
Before removing the card from the anti-static protective packaging:
• Discharge any static electricity buildup on your body by touching
a large grounded metal surface or the metal chassis on
equipment connected to earth ground by a 3-wire power cord.
• Avoid touching the gold connectors or other parts on the card
except as necessary to set the configuration jumpers.
• Remove AC power from the computer before inserting the card.
• Retain the ESD bag for handling the card.
• Save the packaging for storage or shipping.
Before Starting…
The card is normally pre-configured for RS-232 operation.
Check/Set 3 operating Mode/Jumpers for each port.
Device Driver Setting for RS-485 Mode:
After driver installation, set DTR Operation to RS-485 Mode.
See Chapter 4,
Setting Driver Options.
CAUTION: ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICE
Use ESD precautions for safe handling.
