APPENDIX B - MLD card jumper

settings

To prepare the MLD hardware card for installation on the user’s PC computer system,

a memory address not already in use on the PC must be selected for the card. This

address is selected by moving the dip switches on the MLD card. The dip switches can

be located at the end of the card, on the side farthest away from the bracket that

attaches the card to the chassis of the computer.

Side note: it is very rare that this memory configuration needs to be done. Normally the default

address is fine.

The options are as follows:

Switches

Address Comments Line needed in the config.sys file to reserve

memory for the card:

1 IRQ 2 Not used,

should be

OFF

2 IRQ 5 Not used,

should be

OFF

3, 6 C800h DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=C800-CBFF

3, 4, 6 CC00h DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=CC00-CFFF

3, 5 D000h Default DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=D000-D3FF

3, 4, 5 D400h DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=D400-D7FF

3, 5, 6 D800h DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=D800-DBFF

3, 4, 5, 6 DC00h DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=DC00-DFFF

If the MLD software installer is run after the MLD card is inserted in the PC, it can

automatically detect its memory address and modify the config.sys file to reserve the

memory accordingly.

If the software is installed before installing the MLD card, make sure the installer’s

option to modify the config.sys file is disabled. Once you install the card at a later date,

you may run the installer so that it can detect the card and make the necessary changes

to the config.sys file.

If you are installing the software manually, please consult the table above to ensure that

the correct line is present in the config.sys file to reserve memory for the MLD card.
