2 Hardware Configuration

The DSCLP-200/300 is automatically configured at boot time by the

computer's BIOS or operating system. There are no required switches or jumpers
to set for installation.

This chapter lists a number of optional jumper settings that control various

hardware features. Jumpers J1-J4, located in a column near the D-type connector
(D-25 for DSCLP, D-9 for SSCLP), control the RS-422 or RS-485 signal line
termination. Jumpers J5-J8, located in a column just to the right of J1-J4, control
how signals are routed from the UARTs to the connector, as well as full- or half-
duplex operation. Jumpers J10-J22, grouped together at the end of the board
opposite the D-type connector (D-25 for DSCLP, D-9 for SSCLP), control special
options.

Any changes from the factory default should be made before installing the

DSCLP-200/300 in the computer. These settings can also be changed in Device
Manager under Windows operating systems.

2.1 RS-422 or RS-485 Signal Line Termination

Jumpers J6-J9 allow the selection of 100-ohm RS-422 termination,

120-ohm RS-485 termination, or no termination at all. The factory default, shown
in Figure 1, is RS-422 termination. For full details, see section 7.6.
