* This board attaches to any board containing an iSBX connector and
thus shares the same slot as its host board.

Notes:
•
The boards in this section work without modification in either
86- or 286-based System 310's.
•
The 351 MULTIMODULE board always requires jumper changes.
•
The 544, 188/48, and 88/45 boards each require one interrupt.
In the System 310, this is usually interrupt 3 (set on the
processor board). Interrupt 3 is the only available interrupt in
preconfigured 86-based systems.
•
The 550 is a two-board set. It draws more current than most
boards (about 8 amps at +5 VDC). When purchased as a kit, no
special configuration is necessary.
•
The 186/51 is a single board. It draws less power than the 550
controller
set.

configuration is necessary.
•
The 188/48 board is similar to the 88/45 but it uses the faster
80188 microprocessor and provides additional serial ports. No
jumper changes are necessary.
•
Ethernet controllers should not be used in systems running
XENIX software. XENIX does not support Ethernet.
