Chapter 1: Introduction 1.1 Product Introduction RS-232 I/O series, a line of PCI Express Multi-port Serial Communication Board, is designed to meet PCI Express Base Specification Ver2.0. It can be installed in virtually any available PC system and compatible with all major operating systems. Users do not need to manually set jumpers to configure I/O addresses and IRQ locations.
1.3 System Requirements ⚫ Windows® XP/Vista/7/8/8.1/10 (32/64 bit), Linux 2.6.31 or later ⚫ One available PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot 1.4 Package Contents ⚫ 1 x Powered RS-232 2-Port PCIe Card ⚫ 1 x User Manual ⚫ 1 x Fan Out Cable ⚫...
Chapter 2: Getting Started 2.1 Hardware Installation Turn off the power to your computer. Unplug the power cord and remove your computer’s cover. Remove the slot bracket from an available PCIe slot. To install the card, carefully align the card’s bus connector with the selected PCIe slot on the motherboard.
Note: If system’s power supply cannot provide the efficient power to serial devices, it will cause your PC system unstable or unexpected reboot. 2.2 Pin Assignment The 2-ports RS-232 PCIe Card has a female DB44 connector on the board. In this section, we give the on-board connector’s pin assignments to facilitate making your own connection cable, and the male DB9 device-side pin assignments for the fan out cable.
