Setting up the DS1103
Before you install your DS1103 in your host PC or expansion box, set it
up:
➤ Check if the I/O base addresses of your dSPACE boards must be
changed: see below for basic information. For instructions, see
How to Change I/O Base Addresses on page 38.
Changing Default I/O Base Addresses
You have to assign the default I/O base addresses (port addresses) of
dSPACE boards to avoid conflicts with other devices within your
system.
N
CAUTION! Assigning I/O addresses already used by other
devices may lead to system failure, data loss on the hard disk,
and even hardware damage.
■ Refer to your PC’s technical reference manual for a description of
the standard I/O map and to the documentation of additional I/O
boards that might be inserted in the PC.
■ Refer also to the lists of resources used in the diagnostic utilities of
the PC’s operating system. However, these are not always
complete.
Note the following hints on changing the default I/O base address of
dSPACE boards:
■ Regardless of the selected installation (host PC or expansion box),
the I/O address ranges of dSPACE boards in your system must not
overlap. If your expansion box is connected via Ethernet, this
applies also to the address ranges of the slot CPU, the FlashDisk
and AutoBoot option.
