E271-2201 PC-BUS CONTROLLER
E271-2201 Installation
Follow these steps to install the E271-2201 controller:
1. Discharge any static charge on your body by touching the back of the
computer cabinet.
2. Note the Base I/O Port and Interrupt for use with your driver software. The
factory default settings are 280 (hex) and no Interrupt (Polled Mode). Eight
consecutive I/O ports are used by the E271-2201. Ports 280-287 are typically
not used by other devices. Elo driver software sets the Interrupt through
software setup.
3. Turn the computer off and unplug the AC power cord from the outlet.
4. Remove the computer's cover. Refer to the computer user's manual for this
step.
5. Choose an available expansion slot. On a PC/XT, do not use slot 8. On an AT,
any slot may be used.
6. Remove the retaining screw for the expansion slot's access bracket, then
remove the bracket.
7. Insert the controller into the expansion slot. The controller should seat fully
and the access bracket should mate with the frame of the computer.
8. Replace the retaining screw, insuring that the controller remains seated in the
socket.
9. Replace the computer's cover.
10. If you have a TouchMonitor, plug the DB9 female end of the supplied
touchscreen cable into the DB9 male connector labeled "Touchscreen
Interface" on the back of the TouchMonitor case. Attach the opposite end of
the cable, DB9 male, to the DB9 female connector on the controller. Do not
confuse the touchscreen and video connections.
If you do not have a TouchMonitor, see E271-2201 Connections on the
following page.
11. Plug the AC power cord back in and reboot the computer.
