Assigning an I/O Address
The system now displays a list of available I/O addresses and prompts
you to enter the I/O address to be assigned to the board. The IPC-1600
comes from the factory with the I/O address set to 100h; if I/O address 100h
is already assigned, the first available I/O address in the displayed list appears
as the default. The hardware I/O address will be set to match the software
assignment(s) later in Chapter 4. The following is an example of how the
display and prompt may appear on your screen:
Please enter the following system configuration information
for IPC-1600 Board 1. The available starting I/O addresses
for the IPC-1600 Board 1 are:
Starting I/O address: 100 (default)
Starting I/O address: 110
Starting I/O address: 120
Starting I/O address: 200
Starting I/O address: 220
Starting I/O address: 300
Starting I/O address: 320
Type the starting I/O address and strike the ENTER key or type Q
to cancel installation. Striking the ENTER alone will select the
default:
Remember that if you are adding more than one board, the I/O address
range should not conflict with any other boards in the system. Each board in
the system must be assigned a unique I/O address.
Either press the ENTER key (to enter the default) or type in the name of
the starting I/O address that you wish to assign and then press ENTER.
Be sure to write down the address(es) that you specify.
