Notes!
- A second BUS-PCI(PCI) board cannot be properly installed unless
the resources (I/O addresses and interrupt level) to be used for the
board can be allocated. Before attempting to install a second board,
first determine which PC resources are free.
- The resources used for each BUS-PCI(PCI) board do not depend on
the location of the PCI bus slot or the board itself. If you remove two
or more BUS-PCI(PCI) boards that have already been installed and
then re-mount one of them on the computer, it is unknown which one
of the sets of resources previously assigned to the two boards is
assigned to the re-mounted board. In this case, check the resource
settings again.
