2-6 Chapter 2: Hardware Installation DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Interrupt Selection You can configure an interrupt request line (IRQ) with the jumper block J2 and DIP switches 4 and 5 on switch block SW1 situated near the PC/104 bus connector on the DFlex-4/104 adapter.
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation 2-7 DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 You are able to configure the DFlex-4/104 adapter for three different IRQ modes.
2-8 Chapter 2: Hardware Installation DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Examples: 1. The following example shows the settings on J2 and SW1 so that all ports will interrupt on the factory setting of IRQ 4.

Chapter 2: Hardware Installation 2-9 DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Mode 2 (two IRQs) Mode 2 allows you to select one IRQ for ports 1 and 3, and another IRQ for ports 2 and 4. Please follow these steps to choose this mode: 1. Choose an available IRQ for ports 1 and 3 and an available interrupt for ports 2 and 4 .
2-10 Chapter 2: Hardware Installation DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Examples: 1. The following example shows the settings on J2 and SW1so that ports 1 and 3 will interrupt on IRQ 7 and ports 2 and 4 will interrupt on IRQ 12.
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation 2-11 DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Mode 3 (four IRQs) Mode 3 allows you to select a unique IRQ for each port. Please follow these steps to choose this mode: 1. Choose available and unique IRQs for ports 1, 2, 3 and 4.
2-12 Chapter 2: Hardware Installation DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 Examples: 1. The following example shows the settings on J2 and SW1so that port 1 interrupts on IRQ 5, port 2 interrupts on IRQ 7, port 3 interrupts on IRQ 10 and port 4 interupts on IRQ 15.
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation 2-13 DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 The DFlex4/104 is capable of baud rates up to 460.8 kbps (4X oscillator) or 115.2 kbps (1X oscillator) depending on the position of jumper J1. If the jumper is in the off position (default) during a hardware reset, the maximum baud rate will be 115.
2-14 Chapter 2: Hardware Installation DFlex-4/104 User's Manual, ver. 0.04 The purpose of the jumper is to provide compatability with device drivers that won't select the desired baud rates if the DFlex4/104 is set for 460.8 kbps. For example most serial drivers expect a maximum baud rate of 115.
