2.4 Hardware Installation 
PCI configuration 
The PCI cards are equipped with a plug and play PCI controller,  
it can request base addresses and interrupts in accordance with the PCI 
standard. The system BIOS will install the system resource based on the 
PCI cards’ configuration registers and system parameters (which are set 
by system BIOS).  Interrupt assignment and memory usage (I/O port 
locations) of the PCI cards  can be assigned by system BIOS only. These 
system resource assignments are done on a board-by-board basis.  It is 
not suggested to assign the system resource by any other methods.  
PCI slot selection 
The PCI card can be inserted to any PCI slot without any configuration for 
system resource.  Please note that the PCI system board and slot must 
provide bus
 
-mastering capability to operate this board properly.
