HARDWARE INSTALLATION :
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 Computer
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.

DRIVER INSTALLATION :
Windows 9x/ME/2000/XP & Vista:
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“ 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 (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 to 256.
Windows Server 2000/2003:
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“ 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 (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 to 256.
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" 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 NTDiagnostics<
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 installed.
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.

for Windows 98SE and ME
===================================================

CONTENTS

Section Description
--------------------
1 Introduction
2 Enhancements and Bug Fixes
3 Known Issues
1. INTRODUCTION
---------------
This driver package supports operation on Oxford Semiconductor's UARTs and
parallel port devices under Windows 98SE and Windows ME. Previously this
package was combined with the Windows 2000 & XP drivers. These are now
supplied in separate packages.
2. ENHANCEMENTS and BUG FIXES
-----------------------------

o Support added for the OXCFU950 both in the driver and user interface.
o Fixed problem where autodetecting crystal frequency in the UI could
overwrite any prescalar values specified in the inf file.
o Fixed problem where on some systems with the OXCF950, the driver would
fail to allocate resources.
o Driver split into separate package from the Windows 2000 & XP drivers.

3. KNOWN ISSUES
---------------

o Cannot standby or hibernate with open ports under Windows ME.

o Echo to OXCFU950 COM port immediately after power up does not activate port.

o If port is configured with DTR function set to RS485 Buf Active low, driver
incorrectly still allows port to be opened with DTR flow control enabled.
