Page 5: Card Setup
Card Setup Clock Modes The PMS8232 employs a unique clocking option that allows the end user to select from divide by 4 and divide by 1 clocking modes. This mode is selected at J2,J3. To select the Baud rates commonly associated with COM: ports (i.e. 2400, 4800, 9600, 19.2, … 115.2K Bps) place the jumper in the divide by 4 mode (silk-screen DIV4). -

921.6K bps Address and IRQ selection The PMS8232 is automatically assigned I/O addresses and IRQs by your motherboard BIOS. Only the I/O address may be modified by the user. Adding or removing other hardware may change the assignment of I/O addresses and IRQs. -
Page 7: Installation
System Installation The PMS8232 can be installed in any of the PCI expansion slots and contains a single jumper strap that must be set for proper operation. Please see the Card Setup section of the manual for information on this jumper. -
Page 8: Technical Description
Technical Description Technical Description The PMS8232 utilizes the 16C554 UART. This chip features programmable baud rate, data format, interrupt control and a 16-byte input and output FIFO, and is functionally 4 16C550 UARTs. The 16C654 UART is also available on this card, which has a 64-byte FIFO as opposed to the 16-byte FIFO available in the 16C554 and the 16C854 which has a 128-byte FIFO. -

+12 volts (usually +3 to +10 volts) represents a binary 0 (space) and -12 volts (-3 to -10 volts) denote a binary 1 (mark). The RS-232 and the EIA/TIA-574 specification define two types of interface circuits Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment (DCE). The PANACOM Technology Adapter is a DTE interface. PMS8232 / PMS4232 Page 10... -
Page 14: Appendixd - Asynchronous Communications
The data rate and communication parameters for asynchronous communications have to be the same at both the transmitting and receiving ends. The communication parameters are baud rate, parity, number of data bits per character, and stop bits (i.e. 9600,N,8,1). PMS8232 / PMS4232 Page 11... -
