If you are using the 1784-KT or -KTX card on DH+:

Highlight the appropriate card (1784-KT on DH+ or 1784-KTX on
DH+) in the list of Available Drivers and click on the Add Device
button.

The 1784-KT on DH+ device configuration dialog box appears.

This is also called the pushwheel

number or Port ID, not to be

confused with the serial com port.

This is a software ID that represents

your network interface; you can have

Port ID 1 associated with com port 2.

This is an arbitrary name you assign.

This is the DH+ number you

assign to your computer.

This address should match the dip switch

settings on your KT card. A bad setting of

the card address is often the cause of a

malfunctioning network.

You set this interrupt on your KT card

using the appropriate dip switches

(refer to your KT card documentation).

This is the most common source of

malfunctioning communications.

Always make sure that the interrupt

number you enter here matches the

KT card settings, and that the

interrupt is not being used by another

hardware card.

Important: Each configured device must have a unique port ID

(1-8). You will need to know this ID when using the
Excel spreadsheets to configure your functions.

Select the appropriate options and click on OK.

If you are using DF1:

Highlight that option in the list of Available Drivers and click on the
Add Device button.

The DF1 on COM Port Device Configuration dialog box appears.

Select the appropriate options and click on OK.
