Section 2. Windows for Workgroups 3.11
============================================================================


Installation is the same as Windows 3.1


============================================================================
Section 3.   WINDOWS 95
============================================================================

To install the I/O 650  Drivers  and  Configuration  program 
follow these steps:

NOTE:  In  Windows  95,  you MUST install the drivers BEFORE 
installing the adapter board.


1. Insert the IO650 driver diskette into  your  A:  (or  B:) 
drive.

2.  From  the  Start Button, select Run..., and type A:SETUP 
(or B:SETUP).

3. Setup launches both  the  'New  Hardware  Wizard'  and  a 
installation  instruction window. Follow all instructions on 
screen. For step 7, select '2 port 16650 card'.


Use the COM PORT  properties  dialog  box  from  the  Device 
Manager tab in the system applet of the control panel. There 
you can select the desired settings for the IO650. With Baud 
Mapping  turned  off,  the  baud rate you select will be the 
baud rate used. The following section describes what happens 
when you turn baud mapping on.



============================================================================
Section 4. BAUD MAPPING.
============================================================================

Baud mapping allows older applications to  operate  at  baud 
rates  that are not usually supported by an application. For 
example, if the highest  baud  rate  that  your  application 
supports is 115200, then you can can turn baud mapping on to 
operate  at  higher  speeds. When baud mapping is turned on, 
the I/O 650 multiplies the  requested  baud  rate  by  four. 
Selecting  a  baud rates of 57600 actually becomes 230kbaud, 
and selecting 115200 actually produces 460kbaud.


See the user manual for more details on 'baud mapping'.
