Page 3: Introduction
Version 01.00 1 Introduction The SH-ARC PCI is an ARCNET card for use in PCs with a PCI bus[4]. The controller used is the COM20020[1] or COM20022[2] (named below COM2002x). The card features a 32-Bit data bus and thus, enables high transfer rates. - Page 4 SH-ARC PCI Manual Version 01.00 Miscellaneous • DOS enabler for use under MS-DOS (register compatible to FARC E3 and other adapters equipped with the COM20020 controller) • driver for Windows NT • CE mark guarantees proper function in industrial environments (see notes in chapter Interfaces/RS485 interface) •...

Page 5: Function
The interface operates at all data rates. 3.2 Access The SH-ARC PCI adapter is mapped automatically into the I/O or the memory space by the BIOS of the host computer. The operating system is able to retrieve start addresses and the interrupt used with the aid of BIOS functions. - Page 6 16-Bit accesses by the host PC. The Local Space 0 and 3 are intended for very fast data transfers from PC to the SH-ARC PCI adapter. Please contact SoHard GmbH if you want to use this mode in your own applications. The Windows NT driver already supports this operation mode.
