The drivers here are organized based on the operating system. Since the normal way to get to this page is via the products list, here are reference points for different products. Thus it may happen to have different entries for the same operating system.
 

VScom PRO cards

DOS 
The settings are configured by software. You need to run the program CARDCONF.EXE from this place. CARDCONF changes the settings of port-address and IRQ, and stores this configuration on the card. These settings are only changed with cardconf. Please assure your IRQ is working properly.

Note: You must not have a maximum of two boards from the PRO series in one computer. In this case one board must be configured as board 0, the other as board 1. If you fail to observe this, you can damage your product.
If you want to program the serial ports by yourself, there is a software skeleton saved on this CD-ROM. Also the data sheets of some UART types are included.
 
Windows 95 / 98 and ME 
The drivers are installed via a separate installation program named DrvConf. Just run it from this place. This program also configures the ports to the selected address and IRQ. Please assure your IRQ is working properly.

As usual you need full administrators rights to install drivers.
 
Windows NT 4.0 
The drivers are installed via a separate installation program named DrvConf. Just run it from this place. This program also configures the ports to the selected address and IRQ. Please assure your IRQ is working properly.

OS/2 
As with Linux you configure the ports with the DOS utility. Since you will have more than 4 ports or some on the same IRQ, the OS/2 own driver can not operate the port. But there is a solution from the shareware. This software is available from the authors website and must be registered there. For your convenience the latest official version 1.60d is stored on this CD-ROM. If you like to distribute it yourself, only the complete ZIP-file may be sent.
