I/O Ports and Connectors B-3To avoid autoconfiguration, you may be able to reset jumpers on the expansion cardso that the card’s port designation changes to the next available COM number, leavingthe designation for the built-in port as is. Alternatively, you can disable the built-inports through the System Setup program. The documentation for your expansion cardshould provide the card’s default I/O address and allowable IRQ settings. It shouldalso provide instructions for readdressing the port and changing the IRQ setting, ifnecessary.The built-in parallel port has autoconfiguration capability through the System Setupprogram; that is, if you set the parallel port to its automatic configuration and add anexpansion card containing a port configured as LPT1 (IRQ7, I/O address 378h),the system automatically remaps the built-in parallel port to its secondary address(IRQ5, I/O address 278h). If the secondary port address is already being used, thebuilt-in parallel port is turned off.For general information on how your operating system handles serial and parallelports, and for more detailed command procedures, see your operating systemdocumentation.6HULDO3RUW&RQQHFWRUVIf you reconfigure your hardware, you may need pin number and signal information forthe serial port connectors. Figure B-2 illustrates the pin numbers for the serial portconnectors, and Table B-1 lists and defines the pin assignments and interface signalsfor the serial port connectors.)LJXUH % 3LQ 1XPEHUV IRU WKH 6HULDO 3RUW &RQQHFWRUV1–5shell6–9
