CIO-DAS08 User's Guide Installing the CIO-DAS08
Base address
Before you install the CIO-DAS08 in your computer, set the base address by using the dip switches 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 shows the settings for the factory-default base
address of 300 hex.

ADDRESS
In the default configuration shown in , 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).
A complete address is constructed by calculating the hexadecimal number which corresponds to all the address
bits the CIO-DAS08 can respond to. The range of base addresses is 000h to 3F0h. Certain address are used by
the PC, others are free and may be used by the CIO-DAS08 and other expansion boards. Refer to the following
table.
Disregard the numbers printed on the switch
When setting the base address, refer to the numbers printed in white on the printed circuit board.

The CIO-DAS08 base switch can be set for an address in the span of 000-3F0h, so it should not be hard to find
a free address area. If you are not using IBM prototyping cards, or some other board which occupies these
addresses, then 300-31F HEX are free to use. Addresses not specifically listed — such as 390-39Fh — are free.
