QPC513 Enhanced Serial Data Interface card
Configuring the ESDI card
Configuring the ESDI card consists of setting the port addresses using the
address selection switch and setting the port interface options using the
jumper blocks. The system software must then be configured to recognize the
ESDI card. Figure 182 on

shows the location of all option switches
and jumper sockets on the ESDI card.
Address switch settings
The two ESDI ports on the card are addressed in pairs such as 0 and 1, 2 and
3, and so on). The address is set using switch S2. The switch settings used to
select the address vary depending on whether the card is Style A or Style B.
The “Style” can be read on the printed circuit board silk screen. The address
of the card is set to match the device address defined in software.

Synchronous port address space is the same as asynchronous port address
space. When selecting an address for the ESDI card, make sure that it will not
conflict with an address currently being used by an asynchronous card.
