2.9 Clock Source Setting

The 8254 programmable interval timer is used in the ACL-8112. It provides
three independent 16-bit programmable down counters. The input of
counter 2 is connected to a precision 2MHz oscillator which is the internal
pacer. The input of counter 1 is cascaded from the output of counter 2.
Channel 0 is free for user's applications. There are two selections for the
clock source of channel 0: the internal 2MHz clock or an external clock
signal from connector CN3 pin 37. The setting for the clock is shown in
Figure 2.6.

2.10 IRQ Level Setting

The ACL-8112 can connect to any one of the interrupt lines of the PC I/O
channel. The interrupt line is selected by JP5 of ACL-8112DG/HG or JP3 of
ACL-8112PG. If the user wishes to use the interrupt capability of ACL-8112,
select an interrupt level and place the jumper in the appropriate position to
enable the particular interrupt line.

The default interrupt level is IRQ15, which is selected by placing the jumper
on the pins in row number 15. Figure 2.7 shows the default interrupt jumper
setting IRQ15. The jumper can be removed from IRQ15 to other new pins to
change to another IRQ level.

Note: Please note that no other add-on cards can share the same interrupt

level simultaneously.
