Card Configuration

Each port on the PCL-849 card has a jumper and a DIP switch which
require configuring prior to use. The DIP switch sets the port to the
appropriate I/O address and speed mode. The jumpers set the port's
IRQ.

Default Settings

The board is shipped with default settings. If you need to change
these settings, however, see the following sections. Otherwise, you
can simply install the card. Note that you will need to disable your
CPU card's on-board COM ports, if any, or set them to alternate
addresses / IRQs.
