Installation of the ADwin CDROM
ADwin
2 Installation of the ADwin CDROM
Please, connect your ADwin system with your PC only if told to do so.
The same applies for the connection of the inputs and outputs, in order to avoid
damages at the ADwin system or at your device.
System requirementsSystem requirements:
– Windows operating systems 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP.
The latest Windows update should be installed.
– PC local RAM of at least 16MB RAM
The graphic card and monitor should support at least 256 colors.
– Free memory on the hard disk of min. 80 MB (both program packages).
–TheADwin CDROM (see www.ADwin.de, Support Downloads)
If the version of the CDROM is lower than 4.00, see the notes in the fol-
lowing chapters.
UpdateFor an update first uninstall all existing ADwin program packages (Windows
start menu: Settings Control Panel). Install now the latest ADwin
CDROM.
Pay attention to the version number of your ADwin CDROM. Older ADwin ver-
sions do not always have the necessary drivers.
If you do not have installed the right drivers, much more effort is necessary to
correct a wrong driver installation.
After an update, you should not install an older ADwin version. The updates of
the ADwin software are designed in such a manner that applications, pro-
grammed in ADbasic 3.0x, can be used without changes.
InstallationFor installation under Windows NT, 2000 and XP you must be member of the
user group "Administrators". It is not sufficient to have full access rights on
the PC. Ask your system administrator.
Install the program packages as follows:
1. Insert the ADwin CDROM into the drive of your computer; the setup pro-
gram starts automatically. If not, start the program <setup.exe>
directly from the CDROM.
2. Under "Show readme.txt" you will find important installation infor-
mation, helping you to install correctly.
3. Select "Driver and ADbasic Setup"; this program package is nec-
essary for working with any ADwin system. Follow the notes in the instal-
lation program.
We recommend to use the proposed destination file <C:\ADwin\…>, so
that you can use all example programs without any changes.
4. The program package "Developer Software setup" contains the
interfaces for the development environments (see "Contents of the
CDROM" below). We recommend to install this package in any case.
Use the drivers only when the ADwin system is working. How to use the
drivers is described in the corresponding driver manual.
5. "Show Features" shows the changes of this CDROM compared to ear-
lier versions.

ADwin ISA link interface
ADwin
3ADwin ISA link interface
The first stepThe first step to install your ADwin system is always the installation of the
ADwin-CDROM (chapter 3 of this manual).
Please pay attention to the version number of the CDROM, especially if you
have an update. Depending on the interface, older versions do not always
have the necessary drivers.
If you want to install under Windows 2000, you should use an ADwin CDROM
version 3.00.2360 or higher and under Windows XP use the version 3.20.0101
or higher.
ADwin systems with ISA
link
The following ADwin systems are operated via an ISA link interface:
–ADwin systems with ADlink PC ISA board
–ADwin boards
–ADwin-light boards (not ADwin-light-16)
I/O address assignmentThe PC communicates with the ADwin systems via the link adapter. Each link
adapter uses eight I/O registers in the PC.
For operating the ADwin system you only need the first of these register
addresses: the base address (also link address). The other register addresses
are defined in relation to the set base address.
Default settingFor ADwin systems with ISA interface, the default setting of the base address
is 150h. If this address is occupied on your PC, you may select other
addresses.
As an example, the table shows the register addresses, which are used by
ADwin systems with the base address 150h or 190h.
In this chapter the following installation steps are described (please consider
the order of the steps):
– Installation of the software and configuration of the PC for the ISA link-
adapter.
Depending on the Windows operation system the procedure is always
different:
– Checking or configurating DIP switches on the ISA link board (page 18).
– Installing the ISA link board in the PC and checking its function with
ADbasic (page 20).
Base address 150h 190h
Base address + 00h 150h 190h
Base address + 01h 151h 191h
Base address + 02h 152h 192h
Base address + 03h 153h 193h
Base address + 10h 160h 1A0h
Base address + 11h 161h 1A1h
Base address + 12h 162h 1A2h
Base address + 13h 163h 1A3h

3.1 Installation of software and configuration of the PC
3.1.1 Windows 9x, NT and ME
For these operating systems you don’t need additional software. You just have
to choose a suitable base address and should reserve it on your PC.
Checking the I/O address
assignment of the
hardware
In any case it is recommended to check first which addresses are already allo-
cated.
– Windows 9x, ME
Call the device manager from the Windows start menu: Settings
Control panel System. Double click the field "Computer" in the
"Device Manager". Under "View Resources" set the display to "In-
put/Output (I/O)".
– Windows NT
Under Windows NT call from the Windows start menu: Programs Ad-
ministrative Tools (Common) Windows NT Diagnostics;
choose the tab „Resources“ and then the button „I/O Port“.
Please pay attention to the fact, that devices using an ISA interface are not
always recognized and registered by Windows. Even the display: "Used by
unknown device“ does only appear, if a communication has been effected
via this address after start-up of the computer! If necessary, check the hard-
ware manual of the device, which may cause address conflicts.
Reserve base address
(link address)
If you have found an address which is not allocated (pay attention to addresses
which are allocated twice), you should reserve it in the device manager. Thus
you are avoiding any address conflicts with other devices which allocate
addresses automatically. Proceed by setting the display to "Input/Output
(I/=O)" under "Reserve Resources". Enter under "Add" the selected
address ("Start value" = base address; "End value" = base address
+13h).
Note the base address If you do not wish to set the base address (= link address) to the standard
address 0150 (= 150h), as described in the example above, please make a
note of it. You have to set this address on the ADwin board, ADwin-light board
or ADlink-PC-ISA board per DIP switch.
