1General Information
The Quatech, Inc. ESC(LP)-100 provides eight RS-232 asynchronous
serial communication interfaces for Low Profile IBM-compatible personal
computer systems using the PCI expansion bus. The ESC(LP)-100 uses
Quatech's new Enhanced Serial Adapter design. Legacy serial port data
rates are limited to a maximum of 115,200 bits per second. Quatech
Enhanced Serial Adapters can achieve data rates as high as 921,600 bits
per second.
As a PCI device, the ESC(LP)-100 requires no hardware
configuration. The card is automatically configured by the computer's
BIOS or operating system. The eight serial ports share a single interrupt
line and are addressed in a contiguous block of 64 bytes. Aspecial
interrupt status register is provided to help software to manage the
shared interrupt.
The ESC(LP)-100's serial ports are implemented using
16750-compatible Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitters
(UARTs). These UARTs contain hardware buffers (FIFOs) which reduce
processing overhead and allow higher data rates to be achieved.
The ESC(LP)-100 is supported under several popular operating
systems and environments. Contact the sales department for details on
current software offerings. Most device drivers are available for
download from the Quatech world wide web site at
http://www.quatech.com.

2Hardware Configuration
The ESC(LP)-100 is automatically configured at boot time by the
computer's BIOS or operating system. There are no switches or jumpers to
set for installation. See Section 5.5 for instructions on how to use
Windows Device Manager to view and change resource settings.

3Hardware Installation
1.Turn off the power of the computer system in which the
ESC(LP)-100 is to be installed.
2.Remove the system cover according to the instructions provided by
the computer manufacturer.
3.Install the ESC(LP)-100 in any empty PCI expansion slot. The board
should be secured by installing the Option Retaining Bracket (ORB)
screw.
4.Replace the system cover according to the instructions provided by
the computer manufacturer.
5.Attach and secure the cable connectors to the desired equipment.
6.Turn on the power of the computer system.
Figure 1: ESC(LP)-100 board outline
The output of the ESC(LP)-100 is a 68-pin VHDCI connector. A
choice of cablesis provided to convert the VHDCI into either eight
standard male D-9connectors or eight 10-pin RJ-45 connectors with all
control signals provided to each port (RTS,DTR,CTS, DSR,DCD, and
RI).

4Address Map and Special Registers
This chapter explains how the eight UARTs and special registers
are addressed, as well as the layout of those registers. This material will
be of interest to programmers writing driver software for the
ESC(LP)-100.
4.1Base Address and Interrupt Level (IRQ)
The base address and IRQ used by the ESC(LP)-100 are determined
by the BIOS or operating system. Each serial port uses 8 consecutive I/O
locations. The eight ports reside in a single block of I/O space in eight
byte increments, for a total of 64 contiguous bytes, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2--- Port Address Map
All eight serial ports share the same IRQ. The ESC(LP)-100 signals
a hardware interrupt when any port requires service. The interrupt signal
is maintained until no port requires service. Interrupts are level-sensitive
on the PCI bus.
The base address and IRQ are automatically detected by the device
drivers Quatech supplies for various operating systems. For cases where
no device driver is available, such as for operation under DOS, Quatech
supplies the "QTPCI" DOS software utility for manually determining the
resources used. See Section 6.3.1 for details.
