Chapter 3 - Software Installation
3.15.10. Miscellaneous
Device files corresponding to ports on the ISIHP cards are created in the /dev folder. Use ttyMxy for normal
ports and cumxy for corresponding callout ports. The letter x is the card number (1–4), and y is the port
number, (a–p) for 16-port cards.
Normal ports (ttyM) are configured for dial-in connections. Callout ports (cum) are used for dial-out
connections.
• To view busy I/O address space on your system, enter: cat /proc/ioports
• To view busy IRQs, enter: cat /proc/interrupts
• To load the driver manually, use insmod.
Example: To load two ISI cards configured with base I/O addresses 0x210 and 0x200 and IRQs 5 and 10,
enter the following in the destination folder:
insmod isicom
ISIBase1=0x210
Irq1=5
ISIBase2=0x200
Irq2=10
To remove the driver manually, enter rmmod isicom. This removes the driver only if no ISI ports are in use.
