Base address
The base address switch sets the starting I/O location where the CPU can access the registers of the CIO-
PDISO8. The factory default is 300h (768 decimal).
Before you install the CIO-PDISO8 in your computer, set the base address by using the dip switch labeled
ADDRESS located on the board. The easiest way to set the base address switch is to let InstaCal show you the
correct settings. However, if are already familiar with setting ISA base addresses, you may use the base address
switch description below to guide your base address selection.
Unless there is already another board in your system using address 300 hex (768 decimal), leave the switches as
they are set at the factory. The example shown in Figure 2 shows the settings for the factory-default base
address of 300 hex.
Figure 2. CIO-PDISO8 base address switches
In the default configuration shown in Figure 2, addresses 9 and 8 are DOWN, and all others are UP.
Address 9 = 200 hex (512 decimal) and address 8 = 100 hex (256 decimal); when added together they equal 300
hex (768 decimal).
Disregard the numbers printed on the switch
When setting the base address, refer to the numbers printed in white on the printed circuit board.
