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

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 real time status of the Kuper logic port. Run 'kuper.exe'.
