Windows 3.11 - Eshed Robotec Controller-PC User Manual

The software will test the PC board address setting.
If the address is correct, the interrupt setting will also be tested. The test should be
successful.
If the address is not correct, a message will be displayed, and the interrupt setting will not
be tested. If the test fails, repeat this entire procedure. Make sure you select available
addresses and/or IRQs. Make sure you set the jumpers properly.

Windows 3.11

Before you use the Setup PC Controller module, try the following:
•
First remove all nonessential expansion cards from the computer, and then try
operating the software.
• Alternately, try changing the address or interrupt on the card which is causing the
conflict and disable the software which controls the card (by editing the
AUTOEXEC.BAT and/or CONFIG.SYS file).
If neither of the above is possible, you will need to change the address used by the PC
servo control card by altering the settings of jumpers J4 (and/or J5) on the card. Use
SCORBASE's Setup PC Controller module to help you resolve the address conflict, as
follows:
1. Click on the Setup PC Controller icon in the SCORBASE program window.
The Controller Card Setup window will be displayed on your screen, as shown in
Figure 16 (on preceding page).
2. Select Test. The software will test the PC board address setting.
• If the address is correct, the interrupt setting will also be tested.
• If the address is not correct, a message will be displayed; the interrupt setting will not
be tested.
3. If the tested address is not correct, select an address setting from the Address field. The
graphic display (Jumper model) will change according to your selection. Write down the
jumper settings for the address you have selected.
4. Exit the software (do not save any changes) and turn off the PC.
Remove the PC Controller Card from the PC and change the jumpers according to the
address you selected.
• Figure 17 shows the possible settings for the J4 jumpers and the corresponding
addresses.
• Figure 18 shows the possible settings for the J5 jumpers and the corresponding
addresses. Note, however, it is unlikely that you will need to change the interrupt
number.
Return the card to the PC and restart the PC.
