Following completion of installation, please restart your system as

the Taskbar [Start] button, then select the [Programs] menu, then the
[Advantech Icom Utility] menu and then [Icom].

Base COM: Specifies the COM number of the first port. Subsequent
ports are mapped to subsequent COM numbers. For instance, if the
first port is mapped to COM10, then the second port is mapped to
COM11 sequentially.
Base Address (200H~3F8H): Specifies the base address of the first
port. Subsequent base addresses are mapped to subsequent COM
numbers. For instance, if the first port is mapped to 300H, then the
second port is mapped to 308H sequentially.
PCL-849 series cards can be installed together in a single system as
long as the system memory resources are sufficient and available in a
system. Different boards should be assigned different IRQs.
