DSCLP/SSCLP-200/300 User's Manual 7.
1 General Information The Quatech, Inc. DSCLP-200/300 (two-port) and SSCLP-200/300 (one-port) provide RS-422 or RS-485 asynchronous serial communication interfaces for IBM-compatible personal computer systems using the PCI expansion bus. For general purposes, this manual usually makes reference only to the DSCLP-200/300.
2 Hardware Configuration The DSCLP-200/300 is automatically configured at boot time by the computer's BIOS or operating system. There are no required switches or jumpers to set for installation. This chapter lists a number of optional jumper settings that control various hardware features.
2.2 Signal Connections The DSCLP-200/300 provides each of two serial ports with four differential signal pairs: TxD, RxD, AUXOUT, and AUXIN. TxD and RxD are always present at the connector. The AUXOUT and AUXIN signals can be used to support RTS/CTS handshaking, external clocking, or external signal loopback.
Jumpers J10-J23 define the options for this card: X8 X4 X2 J3 J4 J5 CTS0_SEL AUX0_SEL0 AUX0_SEL1 J10 J11 J12 RCLK0_SEL TG L0_SEL0 TG L0_SEL1 J13 J14 J15 RXEN0_SEL CTS1_SEL AUX1_SEL0 J16 J17 J18 AUX1_S.
2.3.1 CTS0_SEL, CTS1_SEL (J10, 17) With NO jumpers on J10 or J17 the mode selection is CTS=AUXIN. With Jumpers installed the mode selection is CTS=RTS . 2.3.2 AUX0_SEL1,0, AUX1_SEL1,0 (J12, 11, 19, 18) With NO jumpers on J12 or J19 the mode selection is AUXOUT=RTS.
2.4 Clock Rate and Optional Registers Figure 3 shows the jumper configuration as shipped from the factory, with two spare jumpers applied in neutral positions. Remove one or both and apply as shown in following subsections to set optional features. X8 X4 X2 J3 J4 J5 J2 SPAD Figure 3 --- Factory default clock rate and options settings 2.
The factory default is none of these jumpers applied, which allows for software control of the clock multiplier via the Options Register. The Options Register powerup default is for a standard times-1 clock of 1.8432 MHz for compatibility with standard serial ports.
3 Hardware Installation 1. Turn off the power of the computer system in which the DSCLP-200/300 is to be installed. 2. Remove the system cover according to the instructions provided by the computer manufacturer. 3. Make any desired optional jumper setting changes.
4 Address Map and Special Registers This chapter explains how the two UARTs and special registers are addressed, as well as the layout of those registers. This material will be of interest to programmers writing driver software for the DSCLP-200/300. 4.
4.2 Enabling the Special Registers The DSCLP-200/300 contains two unique registers, an Interrupt Status Register and an Options Register. These registers are enabled when the SPAD jumper (J13) is removed (factory default). They replace the UART Scratchpad Register on accesses to register address 7.
4.4 Quatech Modem Control Register The Quatech Modem Control Register can be used to set up each port. To access the QMCR write a 0xBF to the LCR (base + 3) and a 0x10 to t he Options Register (base+7) . This will allow the user read/write access to the QMCR.
4.5 Options Register The Options Register allows software to identify the DSCLP-200/300 as a Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapter. It also allows software to set the UART clock rate multiplier. Figure 10 shows the structure of the Options Register. The powerup default of the Options Register is all bits zero.
4.5.2 Clock Rate Multiplier A standard serial port operates at a clock speed of 1.8432 MHz. In order to achieve higher data rates, Quatech Enhanced Serial Adapters can operate at two, four, or eight times this standard clock speed. This is controlled by the clock rate multiplier bits in the Options Register.

The X8 clock mode locks the ports hardware clock at eight times the standard rate. The baud rate the port runs at will always be eight times the rate requested by the application. This mode is useful for legacy applications which cannot request baud rates over 115.
RTS routed to CTS, AUXIN routed to RCLK, and TCLK routed to AUXOUT. Used to connect ports transmitting at different baud rates. In order to function, all ports must have and use this feature. Clocks RTS routed to AUXOUT, AUXIN routed to CTS, and TCLK routed to RCLK.
Hardware automatically enables the transmitters when transmitting. Transmitters will turn off three bit-times after the last stop bit of the last character, regardless of baud rate. Used in two-wire communication. Auto Toggle DTR is set to enable the transmitters.
full-scale for the transmit buffer and ¾-scale for the receive buffer are optimal for most applications. Note that the FIFO option for each of the DSCLP-200/300's two ports is configured independently.
6 Other Operating Systems Device drivers for Windows NT and OS/2 are also available for the DSCLP-200/300. The board can be used under DOS and other operating systems as well in many circumstances. The software described below can be obtained from the Quatech web site if it did not come with the board.
6.2.1 QTPCI.EXE Quatech's "QTPCI" utility supplies the information required when modifying the serial port settings of the application. This program should be run from real DOS, not in a Windows DOS box. Figure 13 shows the Basic Mode display for the DSCLP-200/300 after the "Q" key has been pressed.
Figure 14 shows the Expert Mode display for the DSCLP-200/300 after the "Q" key has been pressed. The information from the Basic Mode display is presented along with more details such as the Vendor and Device IDs, PCI Class Code, size of memory and I/O regions, etc.
7 External Connections The DSCLP-200/300 provides four differential communication signals per channel. The two output signals are Transmit Data (TxD) and Auxiliary Output (AUXOUT). The two input signals are Receive Data (RxD) and Auxiliary Input (AUXIN).
7.1 RTS/CTS Handshake Transmission of RTS, combined with reception of CTS, allows for hardware handshaking (data flow control) between the UART and the external device. RTS is transmitted on AUXOUT by not connecting pins 1 and 2 of the jumper blocks J11-12.
7.3 TCLK This is the output clock signal used by the transmitter portion of the UART. It is generally connected to the UART's own receive clock input (RCLK).
7.5 Half-Duplex/Full-Duplex /Auto-Toggle Selection Using jumper blocks J14 thru J16, the transmitters and receivers of each channel can be enabled and disabled by modem control signals. This allows operation in both half-duplex, full-duplex or Auto-Toggle modes.
