Card Setup

The ACB-104 contains several jumper straps for each port, which must be set for proper operation.

Port Enable Disable

The ACB-104 can be enabled or disabled with switch position 8 on the DIP-switch. The port is enabled with the
switch ‘On’ or ‘Closed’ and disabled when ‘Off’ or ‘Open’.

Address Selection

The ACB-104 occupies 8 consecutive I/O locations. A DIP-switch (SW1) is used to set the base address for these
locations. The ACB-104 can reside in any I/O location between 100 and 3F8 Hex. Be careful when selecting the
base address as some selections conflict with existing PC ports. The following table shows several examples that
usually do not cause a conflict.

The following illustration shows the correlation between the DIP-switch setting and the address bits used to
determine the base address. In the example below, the address 300 Hex through 307 Hex is selected. 300 Hex = 11
0000 0XXX in binary representation.
