    INTERRUPTS Interrupts The interrupts are also set by means of jumpers. In total there are 15 interrupts (IRQ) in a PC system. The interrupts IRQ1 - IRQ8, IRQ13 and IRQ14 are not available with the AT-COM board because they are internally used.

  • Page 15: Assignment Of Com Port Addresses And Interrupts

    ASSIGNMENT OF COM PORT ADDRESSES Assignment of COM Port Addresses and Interrupts Ensure that there is no conflict of hardware port addresses or interrupt requests (IRQs) used by your system and the AT COM Board! Essentially the AT COM Board has been designed to be configurable for a non-shared IRQ9, IRQ10, IRQ11, IRQ12, or IRQ15 for COM5 and a shared IRQ9, IRQ10, IRQ11, IRQ12, or IRQ15 for COM6,7,8 and even COM5.

    ASSIGNMENT OF COM PORT ADDRESSES BEETLE systems factory settings provide to use shared IRQ10 for COM3 and COM4, but COM4 can be configured by jumpers on the motherboard to use IRQ11 instead. Some of the new PCs use IRQ11 for USB (Universal Serial Bus). IRQ12, pro ba ble con flict Mou se Port or PS/2 Mou se These types of mice are supported e.g.

It is not recommendable to run the automatic hardware detection! Add the new COM port explicitly instead. You will get some (presumably wrong) port address and IRQ.
