KM-488-DD Installation Guide Introduction
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1. I GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Keithley MetraByte's KM-488-DD is an IEEE-488 interface board which allows programs
written on an IBM@ PC/XT/AT/386TM or IBM I'S2 models 25/30 to communicate with the
IEEE-488 bus. The KM-488-DD conforms to the 1978 IEEE-488 (GPIB) standard and thus, is
compatible with other IEEE-488 products currently offered by many other manufacturers.
Up to fourteen other devices may be connected to the IEEE-488 bus, including instruments,
printers, and other computers.
The KM-488-DlYs design includes a Wait State Generator to adjust the bus timing. This
allows the KM-488-DD to perform within the operating specifications of the GPIB controller
chip, even on the fastest 386 or 486-based PC's. The KM-488-DD can also be configured to
generate interrupts on any of 6 interrupt request lines and DMA transfers on channels 1,2,
or 3.
Keithley MetraByte's optional software allows the KM-488-DD to be programmed either
through the use of the File I/O Commands or from software libraries which allow callable
routines to be accessed from programs written in QuickBASIC", BASICA, MicrosofP C,
TURBOTM PASCAL, and MicrosofP PASCAL. The KM-488-DD is also compatible with a
variety of third-party software packages, such as Keithley Asyst's Asystant GLIB.

CHAPTER 2
INSTALLATION
Before you can use your new KM-488-DD board you must unpack and install it correctly.
To do this, follow these steps:
. Unpack and tnswct the KM-488~DD. This seems like a trivial step; however it is cru-
cial that your board be unpacked correctly. This information is described in section
2.1.
. Set the Jumpers and Switches on the KW4WDD. This step is unnecessary if you elect
to use the factory selected defaults shown in Table 2-1. If you want to change any of
these settings, consult section 2.2.
. lnstatt the KM-486-DD. The KM-48%DD is installed in the same manner as any other
peripheral board. If you are unfamiliar with this process, follow the instructions in
section 2.3.
If you are installing multiple KM-488-DD's in the same GPIEl system, be sure to read Section
2.4, Multiple Board Installation Notes.
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Confirm that each item on the packing list has been shipped. It is a good idea to retain the
outer packing material in the event that the board must be returned to the factory for repair.
1. Then, if you haven't already done so, unpack the board down to its anti-static
packaging.
2. Hold the board (in its anti-static bag) in one hand. Place the other hand firmly on a
metal portion of the system chassis. This procedure eliminates static electricity
build-up, thus preventing any possible damage to the board.
3. After allowing a moment for static electricity discharge, carefully unwrap the board
from the anti-static material.

Installation KM-488-DD lnstallatlon Guide
4. Inspect the board for any possible shipping damage. If any sign of damage is detected,
return the board to the factory as described in section 3.2.
You are now ready to set the jumpers and switches on the KM-488-DD.
2.2 JUMPERSAND SWITCHES
The KM-488-DD contains one DIP switch, two 12-pin jumper banks, and a single 3-pin
jumper. The locations of these are shown in Figure 2-l. The Base Address switch controls
the base address, interrupt address, and wait states. The jumper banks are used to select the
interrupt level and DMA Channel to be used. The single jumper is used to select the source
of the master clock signal. The default switch and jumper selections are listed in Table 2-1.

Swifches
There is only one switch on the KM-488-DD board. This is the Base Address Switch.
The Base Address Switch 61) is a 7-slide,
DIP switch. When a rocker is moved to the
ON position, this sends the signal low (logical Oh0 /I
0). The 7 slide switches are used to select the
Base Address, Interrupt Address, and I/O
Wait States.
Figure 2-2. Base Address Switch
lnferrupt Address. Switches 1,2, and 3 (IO, 11, and 12) are used to select the Interrupt
Response Level Address. This is the address to which the interrupting device must be
written in order to be reset. The address is 02Fx, where x is the interrupt level, from 2 to 7.
The default selection is 7. To make another choice, configure the slide switches as shown in
Figure 2-3.

communicate with the IEEE Controller Chip on the board. Available base addresses (in hex)
are: 02E1,22E1,42El,and 62El. The default base address is 02El. To select another base
address, move the switches to the positions shown in Figure 2-4.

1/O Wait stores. The KM-488-DD is designed with a switch-selectable wait state generator.
Selectable wait states are provided to insure optimum performance and reliable operation at
the differing bus clocks found in personal computers. The default number of wait states (1)
should be correct for most personal computers. However, if you get garbled data or your
program crashes, you may need to adjust the number of wait states. Some general guide-
lines are presented in Table 2-2. The number of wait states is selected
by setting switches 6 and 7 (marked WSl and
WS2) on the DIP switch. You can program Tib Q)
the KM-488-DD to generate one, two, three,
or four wait states during I/O. The default
number of wait states is 1. To select a differ- >WA"
