PCI MultiPort DOS Driver Installation Manual for SB16C1053APCI application only
Ver. 1.00
 

===================================================================================== 
1. Overview
This document is an installation manual for SB16C1053APCI applications.
EMUL1053.SYS is a DOS driver for SystemBases SB16C1053APCI application board, and it can remap the COM port address and LTP port I/O address to Legacy COM Port or LPT Port range. For example, the serial ports can be remapped to COM1(3F8h), COM2(2F8h), COM3(3E8h) and COM4(2E8h) and the parallel port can be remapped to LPT1(3BCh), LPT2(378h) and LPT3(278h). It also has same function set by ROM BIOS of the system.
This driver can support the following 7 models; 2S1P mode, 2S mode, 1S mode, 1P mode, 4S mode, 6S mode and 1S1P mode.

2. How to Install the DOS driver
If you want to install the DOS driver in your computer, please refer to the following steps:
 Copy the DOS driver to the root of C hard disk, C:>.

 Add the following setting command in CONFIG.SYS file of DOS system.
DEVICE=EMUL1053.SYS /M? /A? /B? /C? /D?

 After editing the CONFIG.SYS file, please reboot your system.
After the system reboot, you can see the installed message of the DOS driver.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1 The setting command to CONFIG.SYS
DEVICE=EMUL1053.SYS /M? /A? /B? /C? /D?

To install the DOS driver, you have to upload the device driver EMUL.SYS to RAM of your system using the command DEVICE.

In the upper command, ? means number.
M? means an operational mode of SB16C1053APCI.
A? describes the first serial port of SB16C1053APCI to which a COM PORT I/O address will be assigned.
B? describes the second serial port of SB16C1053APCI to which a COM PORT I/O address will be assigned. 
C? describes the serial ports of external UART or the parallel port of SB16C1053APCI to which a COM or LPT PORT I/O address will be assigned.
D? describes the serial ports of external UART to which a COM PORT I/O address range will be assigned. 
In case of /M? command, ? means one of 7 modes of SB16C1053APCI. 
You need to select one among 8 modes and you need to write the number instead of ?.
----------------------------------------------
/M?	MODE		/M?	MODE
1	2S1P mode	2	2S mode
3	1S mode		4	1P mode
5	4S mode		6	6S mode
7	1S1P mode
----------------------------------------------		

In case of /A?, /B?, /C? and /D? commands, ? values are dependent on the operational mode of SB16C1053APCI.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAUTION:	When you install the DOS driver, you need to assign only one device to one I/O address.
For example, if you install 2S1P card, you cant use the command like DEVICE=EMUL1053.SYS /M1 /A1 /B1 /C2. In this case, the first serial port is assigned to 3F8h and so is the second serial port. This will cause a system error. In this case, you should follow this command. DEVICE=EMUL1053.SYS /M1 /A1 /B2 /C2

FYI,		Legacy COM1 I/O Address is 3F8h
		Legacy COM2 I/O Address is 2F8h
		Legacy COM3 I/O Address is 3E8h
		Legacy COM4 I/O Address is 2E8h
		Legacy LPT1 I/O Address is 3BCh
		Legacy LPT2 I/O Address is 378h
		Legacy LPT3 I/O Address is 278h


Interrupt of SB16C1053APCI is set by the system automatically.
EMUL1053.SYS is only for SystemBases SB16C1053APCI. If the target application is implemented as SystemBase reference board, this driver will support HW Auto-Toggling function. It will provide customers reliable communication.
