5.3 _7200_Initial
@ Description
A PCI-7200 card is initialized according to the card number.
Because the PCI-7200 is PCI bus architecture and meets the Plug
and Play design, the IRQ and base_address (pass-through
address) are assigned by system BIOS directly. Every PCI-7200
card has to be initialized by this function before calling other func-
tions.
Note:
Because the configuration of PCI-7200 is handled by the
system, there are no jumpers or DMA selection on the PCI
boards that need to be set up by the users.
