	KUPER CONTROL CARD IRQ JUMPER SETTINGS (JP3)
	Selects the IRQ used for feeding velocities
	--------------------------------

        JP3 has a single jumper on one set of pins to set the IRQ;
        from left to right, pins set IRQ 2 thru 7, with 5 being the default:

                             _
                    JP3     | |
                    o  o  o |o| o  o
                    o  o  o |o| o  o
                    |  |  | |_| |  |
                    |  |  |  |  |  |
                    |  |  |  |  |  |__ IRQ7  
                    |  |  |  |  |_____ IRQ6
                    |  |  |  |________ IRQ5 <-- DEFAULT
                    |  |  |___________ IRQ4
                    |  |______________ IRQ3
                    |_________________ IRQ2


	KUPER CONTROL CARD SWITCH SETTINGS 'JP4'
	Selects the KuperBase address value
	(Jumpers A3-A9)
	--------------------------------

        This is the default configuration for 0300h:


                    JP4
                     _  _  _  _  _
                    | || || || || |          
                    |o||o||o||o||o| o  o
                    |o||o||o||o||o| o  o
                    |_||_||_||_||_|

                     A3 A4 A5 A6 A7 A8 A9

        Here's the table of the JP4 jumper variations from the
        RTMC16 manual, shown in "most likely to work" order:

		KuperBase
		Address	  A3 A4 A5 A6 A7 A8 A9
		------------------------------
		0300      1  1  1  1  1  0  0
		0320      1  1  0  1  1  0  0
		0320      0  1  0  1  1  0  0
		0330      1  0  0  1  1  0  0
		0340      1  1  1  0  1  0  0
		0280      1  1  1  1  0  1  0
		02a0      1  1  0  1  0  1  0
		0308      0  1  1  1  1  0  0
		0310      1  0  1  1  1  0  0
		0318      0  0  1  1  1  0  0

		NOTE: 	0 = off 	1 = on

		Factory setting is 0300, and there is usually no need
		to modify this setting unless other boards in the machine
		are conflicting with this address. Same for the IRQ setting.

KUPER "INDUSTRIAL" CARD

    The Kuper Controls "Industrial Card" is a 'half slot ISA' card,
    a variation on the RTMC-48. So for OPCS, install the "RTMC48.COM"
    driver.

    The "H1" 40 pin connector (upper-left) is the steps/direction.
    The "H2" 40 pin connector (upper-right) is the "logic" connector.
    For OPCS, only the "H1" connector should be used.

    On the H1 connector, pin #1 is at the lower-left of the connector
    (component side facing you).

    This card has 3 jumper blocks, whose "factory" settings are:

    	JP1:  o-o o             -- sets voltage for pin #1 (OPCS: dont care)

	JP2:  o o o o o         -- sets samples-per-second(?) (default: 120/sec)
	      | | |
	      o o o o o

        JP3:  o o o o o o       -- sets the IRQ (default IRQ 5)
	            |
              o o o o o o

    ..where '-' is a horizontal jumper, and '|' is a vertical jumper.


KUPER PORT MONITOR PROGRAM
    The OPCS software comes with kuper.exe, a program that monitors
    the realtime status of the Kuper logic port. Run 'kuper.exe'.
