32 ControlNet Communication Interface Card ControlNet Communication Interface Card 5 Configuring the Card Hardware Before you install the card inside your computer, you must set the card’s physical addresses for the: • ROM I/O expansion area of the host processor’s system memory—so the card and the host computer can exchange data through the dual-port interface. This is the base memory address. • host processor’s I/O map—so the card’s I/O devices can receive commands from the host computer.

ControlNet Communication Interface Card ControlNet Communication Interface Card Specifications Selecting the Base Memory Address Location The host computer and the card exchange data via a dual-port interface. The dual-port interface is 16 Kbytes long and it begins at the specified base memory address location. The operating parameters describe the environment within the KTCX15 slot. Refer to the documentation for your computer for environmental requirements.
