Setting the Serial/Parallel Interfaces

The serial and parallel interfaces in your computer are set to act
as the primary ports. If you have not added an additional serial
or parallel port, you can skip this section.
If you install an option card with its own serial or parallel port,
you may want to designate the built-in port as secondary and
the additional port as primary. The Setup program lets you
designate ports as primary and secondary so there is no conflict
between the built-in port and the additional port. Here are
some guidelines:
If you install an option card with a port pre-set as primary
by the manufacturer, you must make the computer's
built-in port the secondary port.
If you install an option card or peripheral device with a
port that is not pre-set, you can designate it as the primary
or secondary port.
the primary port and the other as the secondary port and
disable the built-in port.
