Configuring the GP488B/MM PC104 Interface I/O Base Address
The factory default I/O base address is 02E1. If this creates a conflict, reset SW1 micro-
switches 4 and 5 according to the figure and following table. The register addresses will be
automatically relocated at fixed offsets from the base address. If reset, record the new
Input/Output (I/O) address being used.
The I/O base address sets the addresses used by the computer to communicate with the IEEE
488 interface hardware on the board. The address is normally specified in hexadecimal and
can be 02E1, 22E1, 42E1, or 62E1. The registers of the IOT7210 IEEE 488 controller chip
and other auxiliary registers are then located at fixed offsets from the base address.
Most versions of Driver488 are capable of managing as many as four IEEE 488 interfaces. To
do so, the interface configurations must be arranged to avoid conflict. No two boards may
have the same I/O address; but they may, and usually should, have the same DMA channel
and interrupt level.

The factory default Interrupt (IRQ) is 5. If this creates a conflict, reset SW1 micro-switches 1,
2, and 3, and jumper JP3 according to the figure. The switch and jumper settings must both
indicate the same interrupt level for correct operation with interrupts. If reset, record the new
Interrupt (IRQ) being used.
