Introduction

The SIO4-104.485, Item Number 3543, is a PC/104 module that provides four, RS-422/485 serial interface

ports. The board is designed using the XR16C554 UART, which provides a 16-byte FIFO.

In addition to the standard XR16C554 UART, the XR16C854 (‘SE’ option) and the OX16C954 (‘SN’ option)

are available. Both UARTS feature enhanced FIFOs (128 byte transmit and receive), and both maintain

compatibility with the XR16C554. The OX16C954 additionally features a flexible clock prescalar (from 1 to

31.875), 9-bit protocol, and an isochronous mode.

RS-422 provides excellent communications for long distance device connections up to 4000 ft., where

noise immunity and high data integrity are essential.

RS-485 is optimized for ‘Multi-Drop’ or ‘Party-line’ operations selecting data from multiple peripherals (as

many as 31 devices can be connected on an RS-485 bus).

The SIO4-104.485 is designed to be used with a variety of Operating Systems including Windows

98/NT/ME/2000/XP, Linux, and DOS. The SeaCOM API (Application Programmer Interface) available for

the SIO4-104.485 provides a variety of useful high-level function calls implemented as a Windows dynamic

link library (DLL) and as a Linux kernel module and library. In addition to the API, SeaCOM includes sample

code and utilities to simplify software development.

Card Setup

Address Selection

The SIO4-104.485 occupies 16 consecutive I/O locations. The DIP-switch (SW1) is used to set the base

address for these locations and the IRQ mode options. Be careful when selecting the base address as some

selections conflict with existing PC ports. The following table shows the addressing options available. If

different address options are required, please contact Sealevel Systems Technical Support about a custom

PAL option.

Interrupt Modes

DIP-Switch positions ‘S’ and ‘M’ on switch SW1 selects the interrupt mode for each adapter.

With the ‘S’ selected, the adapter is in a (S)hared interrupt mode, which allows more than one adapter to

access a single IRQ.

‘M’ indicates the inclusion of a 1K-ohm pull-down resistor required on one adapter when sharing interrupts.

Set the switch to ‘S’ for shared interrupt mode on all adapters sharing an IRQ. On one of the adapters sharing

an interrupt set the switches for both ‘S’ and for ‘M’. This provides the pull-down resistor circuit that makes

sharing IRQs possible. If you are using more than one compatible adapter in a bus, you should only have

one adapter set to ‘M’.

IRQ Selection

The SIO4-104.485 has an interrupt selection jumper, which should be set prior to use, if an interrupt is

required by your application software. Consult the user manual for the application software being used to

determine the proper setting.

Clock Modes

The SIO4-104.485 utilizes a 14.7456 MHz oscillator. This is eight times faster than the standard COM: port

oscillator, which typically is 1.8432 MHz. This allows the adapter to achieve a maximum data rate of

921.6Kbps. The following sections outline the baud rate calculations and instructions for achieving your

desired baud rate.

Baud Rates and Oscillator value

The following table shows some common data rates and the rates you should choose to achieve them

when using the SIO4-104.485 . If the O/S of choice is Windows 95/98/ME/2000/NT/XP, the oscillator value

(14.7456 MHz) should be entered into the ‘Advanced Tab’ on 95/98/Me/2000/XP Device Manager applet.

Typically this is done automatically when the Sealevel Software driver is loaded.

When using Windows NT, the ‘Advanced Ports’ applet in the Control Panel should be launched and the

oscillator value entered manually in the ‘Advanced’ tab, or all data rates will be eight (8) times the selected

rate. For example if a data rate of 19.2Kbps is selected, the actual data rate will be 153.6Kbps.

When using any other OS (i.e. Linux, or QNX) the following table should be used.

Electrical Interface Selection

Each of the ports on the SIO4-104.485 can be individually configured as RS-422, or as a two wire RS-485

interface. This is a software selectable feature and is found at Base+15. To enable a port for RS-422, simply

write a ‘0’ to Base+15 (this is the power up default). To enable a port for two-wire RS-485 simple write a ‘1’

to Base+15. If the Sealevel Software Windows drivers are used, this is accomplished as a function of the

Device Manager.

RS-485 Enable

RS-485 is backwardly compatible with RS-422; however it is optimized for party line or multi-drop

applications. The output of the RS-422/485 driver is capable of being active (enabled) or tri-state (disabled).

This capability allows multiple PCs to be connected in a multi-drop bus and selectively polled. Half-duplex

two-wire operation is also possible by connecting TX+ to RX+ and TX- to RX- in your cable hood. The enable

to the driver is connected to the UART Request to Send (RTS) line for RS-485 communications. This allows

the RS-485 driver to be tri-stated when inactive on a multi-drop polled network. The software that you are

using must "know how" to enable the driver when it is answering a poll. Failure to correctly utilize the enable

can cause transmitter contention problems preventing operation by any node on the network. If the Sealevel

Systems Windows Software driver is used, a ‘Radio’ style button on the ‘Advanced’ property page under the

Device manager can be selected that will automatically toggle RTS for use as an enable.

If the SIO4-104.485 is equipped with the optional 16C954, (Item Number 3543-SN) a hardware mode can

be selected in the UART that will also enable the RS-485 drive automatically.

Line Termination

Typically, each end of the RS-485 bus must have line-terminating resistors (RS-422 terminates at the receive

end only). Typically a 120-ohm resistor is across each RS-422/485 input in addition to a 1K-ohm pull-

up/pull-down combination that biases the receiver inputs. If multiple SIO4-104.485 adapters are configured

in an RS-485 network, only the boards on each end should have the termination in place. Contact Sealevel

Technical Support if you have questions on how to remove this termination.

RS-485 ‘Echo’

The RS-485 ‘Echo’ is the result of connecting the receiver inputs to the transmitter outputs. Every time a

character is transmitted; it is also received. The SIO4-104.485 automatically suppresses this ‘Echo’.

Software Installation

Windows Installation

Do not install the Adapter in the machine until the software has been fully installed.

Only users running Windows 7 or newer should utilize these instructions for accessing and

installing the appropriate driver via Sealevel’s website. If you are utilizing an operating system

prior to Windows 7, please contact Sealevel by calling 864.843.4343 or emailing

[email protected] to receive access to the proper driver download and installation

instructions.

1. Begin by locating, selecting, and installing the correct software from the website -

SeaCOM software.

2. Select the “SeaCOM for Windows” download link.

3. The setup file will automatically detect the operating environment and install the

proper components.

To confirm that the SeaCOM driver has been successfully installed, click on the ‘Start’ button, and then

select ‘All Programs’. You should see the ‘SeaCOM’ program folder listed.

You are now ready to proceed with connecting the 3543 to your system. Refer to the Hardware

Installation section for details.

Linux Installation

You MUST have “root” privileges to install the software and drivers.

The syntax is case sensitive.

SeaCOM for Linux can be downloaded here: https://www.sealevel.com/support/software-seacom-linux/.

It includes the README and the Serial-HOWTO help files (located at seacom/dox/howto). This series of

files both explains typical Linux serial implementations and informs the user about Linux syntax and

preferred practices.

User can use a program such as 7-Zip to extract the tar.gz file.

In addition, the software selectable interface settings can be accessed by referencing

seacom/utilities/3543mode.
