Part 1: Introduction
====================

---ISA Adapters

ClassicBoard adapters are available with 4, 8 and 16 port panel options.  
ClassicBoard adapters are shipped with a DOS based configuration utility, 
which configures ClassicBoard adapters for either Legacy or Plug and Play (PnP) 
mode.  The PnP mode is the default setting and the ClassicBoard Windows
driver requires this PnP mode.

ClassicBoard adapters use either 16554 Quad Uarts or 16654 Quad Uarts.  A 
Quad Uart is simply 4 Uarts (the serial communications chip) in one.  Thus a 
16554 Uart can be considered as four 16550 Uarts and a 16654 Uart as four 
16650 Uarts.  The ClassicBoard adapter allows some enhanced features. 

---PCI Adapters

ClassicBoard PCI adapters are aviable with 4 and 8 port panel options. Because
PCI are inheratly Plug and Play, the DOS based configuration utility is not needed.

ClassicBoard PCI adapters use only 16654 Quad Uarts.

---All Adapters

This document describes how to install the ClassicBoard adapter.  A complete 
help for this product is available in the file DGIICLAS.HLP, on the release 
diskette. This file is automatically copied to your Windows system directory

Part 2: Installation
====================

Installation of the ClassicBoard Adapter

Follow these steps to install the ClassicBoard Driver :
1. Insert the ClassicBoard Adapter in a free ISA or PCI slot.
2. Power on the computer.
3. Windows will automatically detect the new Plug and Play adapter and the 
   multiple devices on that adapter and will prompt you for a driver for the 
   first device.  Once you specify the driver on the ClassicBoard diskette, 
   typically A:\WIN95, Windows will automatically enumerate the remaining 
   devices on the adapter.  Windows displays messages detailing the devices
   being enumerated.
