Once the card has been correctly configured it can then be installed
in the PC.
Finally cables should be attached and communication with the serial
peripheral devices should be established.
Provided that the installation is attacked in this orderly manner,
everything should work first time. If it does not then check the
software selectable communications parameters, Baud rate, Parity,
stop bits first, and that the communications program is attempting to
access the serial port installed. If this fails to solve the problem
check the cable connections. Finally check that the card is indeed
configured as you believed!
NOTE: Always turn the computer OFF before installing or
removing any interface board.
STEP 1: Before the PC card can be installed the power to the PC
MUST be switched OFF!
STEP 2: Remove the case.
