Integrated Peripherals Submenu
Use this submenu to apply nondefault configurations to the front panel 
peripherals of an NI PXI-8104 controller. Normally, you do not need 
to modify these settings, as the factory default settings provide the most 
compatible and optimal configuration possible.
Serial Port A—This setting enables or disables COM1. You also can 
change this setting to Enabled and modify the base address and 
Interrupt Request Level (IRQ) of a port. The default is Auto, which 
places COM1 at 0x3F8 IRQ 4.
Parallel Port—Use this setting to enable or disable LPT1. You also 
can change this setting to Enabled and modify the base address, 
IRQ level, and ISA Direct Memory Access (DMA) channel of the 
port. The default is Auto, which places LPT1 at 0x378, IRQ 7, using 
ISA DMA Channel 3 if necessary.
Parallel Port Mode—The PC industry has created several different 
modes of operation for this port over the years. Usually, the default 
setting works for all applications. However, if a parallel port device 
specifically requires a nondefault setting, you can change it here. 
The default is Bidirectional, for full IEEE 1284 capabilities.
Legacy USB Support—Use this setting to use a USB keyboard and 
mouse as if they were standard PS/2-style peripherals. You must enable 
this setting to use these devices in operating systems with no USB 
support and to boot from a USB floppy or CD-ROM. The BIOS setup 
screen always works with USB keyboards regardless of this setting. 
Certain real-time applications may require you to disable this setting 
to reduce loop time jitter. The default is Enabled.
AHCI Configuration—This setting determines whether AHCI mode 
is Enabled or Disabled for the SATA port. Some operating systems, 
such as Windows 2000, do not support AHCI mode. You can use this 
setting to disable AHCI mode so that non-compatible OSes function 
correctly. The default setting is Enabled.
Monitor DDC—This setting determines how the monitor DDC is 
routed. Use this setting to select whether or not the DDC is routed for 
an Analog monitor or a DVI monitor. In order to use a DVI monitor, 
this setting must be set to DVI. An analog monitor, however, will 
function with this option set to either Analog or DVI. The DDC 
communication path is only enabled when set to Analog for an analog 
monitor, so certain advanced features of your analog monitor may only 
be enabled when routing DDC to Analog. The default setting is DVI.
Note
After changing DDC routing settings, a power cycle is required to enable the change.
