Installation Instructions:
1. This driver is provided by Hayes to allow AIO applications to use the
serial ports on a Hayes ESP Communications Accelerator installed in the
server. If you need technical support for the driver or board please contact
Hayes:

2. Copy AIOESPCA.NLM to SYSTEM:SYS.
3. Each board requires its own interrupt, which is allocated to the first
port, or Master Port. Additional ports (Slave Ports) share the interrupt,
unless specifically assigned an exclusive interrupt using the "slavex="
parameter.
Interrupts (hex) 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, A, B, C, E, and F are supported. As many
boards may be installed as interrupt availability allows, up to a maximum of
ten boards.
4. The operator must issue one LOAD command per board. LOADing is typically
performed by the AUTOEXEC.NCF file at startup time.
To load the AIOESPCA NLM use the following command:
load aioespca port=xxx int=x [slavex=yyy]
[node=x] [byteio] [name=x] [prescalex=y]
The brackets indicate optional parameters.
______________________________________
REQUIRED load parameters
node
AIO requires that boards be numbered starting from zero and that all boards
using an individual driver have contiguous numbers. This requirement may lead
to the need to include a "node=" parameter on the command line with some
drivers. If it is not included AIO will not find the board or the ports on
that board.
LOAD AIOESPCA NODE=0
This will set the board number for this invocation of the driver to zero.
Succeeding load commands for the driver require "node=1", "node=2" ...
port
Specifies I/O address (in hex) used by ESPCA board.
This must match the jumpered I/O address designation for the intended board.
Several hardware jumpered I/O Addresses are available, with the remaining
addresses available via software configuration of the board's nonvolatile
memory.
Valid choices are: 100, 140, 180, 200, 240, 280, 300, 380.
int
Specifies interrupt used by the first port, or Master Port. Other ports share
this interrupt unless specifically assigned an exclusive interrupt using the
"slavex=" parameter.
Valid choices are: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, A, B, C, E, F.
______________________________________
OPTIONAL load parameters:
slavex
Specifies interrupt used by a particular slave port. Slaves are numbered
starting with 1, with the number replacing the "x" in "slavex".
For example:
slave1=7 (assign interrupt 7 to first Slave Port)
Valid choices are: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, A, B, C, E, F.
byteio
By default, the AIOESPCA driver performs 16-bit I/O data move operations,
which require a 16-bit bus slot. The AIOESPCA driver and ESPCA board may
operate in an 8-bit slot by specifying this switch.
Valid choices are: 0-9.
name
The user defined name which correlates to the board loaded.
prescalex
Specifies a baud rate multiplier for a particular port.
Baud rates can be doubled, quadrupled, or octupled using this switch.
For example:
prescale0=1 (doubles Master Port baud rates)
prescale1=3 (octuples first Slave Port baud rates)
Valid choices are: 0 - 3
0 - x1
1 - x2
2 - x4
3 - x8
Patch History:
This is the first time a driver for the ESPCA card has been provided in the
NetWire library.
