PCI Photon 8 Port RS232
Configuring PCI Photon Ports In Windows NT.
Microsoft Windows NT Provides built in support for 255
standard serial ports. To setup your PCI Photon 8 Port RS232
serial card you should follow these steps. Please note that to
change any kind of hardware configuration under Windows NT
you must be logged in as a user with Administrator level
privileges, if you do not have these please contact your system
administrator.
Software Installation.
Insert the PCI Photon 8 Port RS232 Card into your PC, as
described in chapter 2, and restart. Place the supplied Serial
Solutions CDROM in a suitable drive and from the Start Menu
choose Run and enter the path Below. If you are installing from
floppy disk the path will be <drive:>\setup.exe. (where <drive:>
is the path to the drive containing the installation disk).
Selecting the "OK" button begins the conventional
InstallShield setup process, there are no options for this
installation, all items must be installed in the NT System32
directory. Once the software has been installed, you may run the
Serial Solution Control Panel applet
InstallShield will then install the driver software automatically
- it will then copy the necessary files and start itself. This
automatically detects your new PCI serial card(s) and does not
require any further system restarting.
