If you are ready with the jumper settings, please proceed with the following installation 
instructions. Because the designs of computers are different, only general installation 
instructions are given. Please refer your computer’s reference manual whenever in doubt. 
1.  Turn off the power to your computer and any other connected peripherals. 
2.  Remove the mounting screws located at the rear and/or sides panels of your Com-
puter and gently slide the cover off. 
3.  Locate an available expansion slot and remove its covers from the rear panel of your 
computer. Make sure it is the right expansion slot for the card (see card description) 
4. Align the card with the expansion slot, and then gently but firmly, insert the card. 
Make sure the card is seated and oriented correctly. Never insert the card by force! 
5.  Then connect the card with a screw to the rear panel of the computer case. 
6.  Gently replace your computer’s cover and the mounting screws.

Die EX-44190-2 ist eine PCI-Express Multi I/O Karte mit einem Parallel Centronics EPP/
ECP Port und 2 seriellen FIFO 16C95x Ports, für den Anschluss von High-Speed seriellen 
RS-232 Peripherie Geräten (z.B. Terminal, Modem, Plotter usw.). Der serielle PCI-Express 
Bus unterstützt dabei optimal die Leistung des schnellen 16C95x Chipsets mit 128byte 
FIFO Cache. Die Karte gewährleistet so eine sichere Datenübertragung und exzellente 
Performance von bis zu 921KBaud/s für jedes angeschlossene Gerät! Sie unterstützt alle 
PCI-Express Slots von x1 bis x16. Es ist nicht möglich die I/O Adressen und Interrupts 
manuell einzustellen, da die Einstellungen der Karte vom System (BIOS) und beim Instal-
lieren des Betriebssystems automatisch vorgenommen werden. Mit dem Jumper JP3 
können Sie den Parallel Port ein- oder ausschalten. 
BESCHREIBUNG & TECHNISCHE DATEN : 
AUFBAU : 
Kompatibilität:  PCI Express x1 bis x16 
Betriebs Systeme:  WIN9x/ME/NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista/(Linux vom OS) 
Anschlüsse:  2 x 9 Pin Sub-D Stecker, 1 x 25 Pin Parallel Buchse

Zertifikate:  CE / FCC / RoHS / WEEE DE97424562 / WHQL 
Windows 9x/ME/2000/XP/Vista & 7: 
After starting Windows it recognizes a new “PCI Controller“ and open the hardware 
assistant. Please choose manual installation and put the driver CD into your CD-Rom 
drive. Now enter the Path "D:\IO\OXFORD\" and then the directory of your operating 
system “95_98_ME“ “2000“ “XP32“ “XP64“ “Vista32“ “Vista64“ “Win7_32bit“ or 
“Win7_64bit“  into the box for the Path/Source and click at >next/continue<. Now 
Windows search for the drivers in the specified directory. Follow the hardware assistant 
and finish the installation. If Windows recognizes other new devices repeat the above 
described steps. Attention! Restart Windows in any case after installing the drivers. 
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER: 
Click at Start<>Run< then enter “compmgmt.msc“ and click at >OK<. In the windows 
that open select >Device Manager<. Under ”Ports (COM and LPT)“ you should find 
one or more new ”PCI Ports“ as sample (LPT2) or (Com3). If you see this or similar 
entries the card is installed correctly. 
CHANGE PORT NUMBER: 
If you like to change the port number for example COM 3 to COM5, open the >Device 
Manager< click at >COM3<, >Settings< and then >Advance<. There you can change 
between COM 3 till 256. This also works with LPT Ports! 
Windows Server 200x: 
After starting Windows it recognizes a new “PCI Controller“ and open the hardware 
assistant. Please choose manual installation and put the driver CD into your CD-Rom 
drive. Now enter the Path "D:\IO\OXFORD\" and then the directory of your operating 
system for Server 2000: “2000“ and for Server 2003: “XP32“ or “XP64“ and for 
Server 2008: “VISTA32“ or “VISTA64“ into the box for the Path/Source and click at 
>next/continue<. Now Windows search for the drivers in the specified directory. Follow 
the hardware assistant and finish the installation. If Windows recognizes other new 
devices repeat the above described steps. Attention! Restart Windows in any case 
after installing the drivers. 
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER: 
Click at Start<>Run< then enter “compmgmt.msc“ and click at >OK<. In the windows 
that open select >Device Manager<. Under „Ports (COM and LPT)“ you should find 
one or more new ”PCI Ports“ as sample (LPT2) or (Com3). If you see this or similar

Manager< click at >COM3<, >Settings< and then >Advance<. There you can change 
between COM 3 till 256. This also works with LPT Ports! 
Windows NT 4.0: 
Start Windows NT and insert the driver CD into your CD-ROM drive (for example D:). 
Click at >Start< >Run< and enter „D:\IO\OXFORD\NT4\Install_Serial.exe and In-
stall_Parallel.exe" then click >OK<. Windows NT will now start the setup program and 
install the driver. Please Restart Windows NT after installing the drivers. 
CHECK THE INSTALLED DRIVER: 
Click at >Start< >Programs< >Administrative Tools[Common]< >Windows NT-
Diagnostics< then click at >Resource< >IRQ<. Here you should find the entry „09 
oxser 0 PCI“. Then click at >I/O-Port< here you should see the entries „D400-D407 
oxser 0 PCI“ „D800-D802 oxser 0 PCI“ and „DC00-DC1F oxser 0 PCI“   
for the ports. The I/O addresses can change depends which system and card is in-
stalled. If you see these or similar entry's the card is installed correctly. 
LINUX: 
There are no drivers available for Linux, but the card is supported by the most versions 
of Linux. Because each individual distribution and kernel version of Linux is different, 
sadly we cant provide a installation instruction. Please refer to the installation manual 
for standard IO ports from your Linux version! In some newer versions the card will 
even be installed automatically after starting Linux. 
DRIVER INSTALLATION : 
JP3: 
AUX5V  =  DC5V from J8, pc power supply cable is required 
AUX12V =  DC12V from J8, pc power supply cable is required 
PCI12V  =  DC12V from PCI Express (Factory setting), no cable 
Only if JP2 is set to PWR! The pin 9 from the serial port connector 
will be supplied with DC5V or DC12V. There are 3 sources depends 
on the jumper position of JP4. 
JP2: 
DIS  =  The pin 9 is connected with the RI (Ring Indicator) 
    signal as standard RS-232 definition (Factory setting). 
PWR  =  The pin 9 is connected with a power either from PCI  
Express slot or from Aux Power connector (J8) The power source is 
controlled by JP3 jumper (see the following section).
