Address Selection
Each port on the OMG-COMM2 -EX occupies eight consecutive I/O locations. A
DIP-switch is used to set the base address for these locations. Be careful when
selecting the base address as some selections conflict with existing ports. The
following table shows several examples that typically do not cause a conflict.
SW1 sets the I/O address for port 1 of the OMG-COMM2 -EX and SW2 sets the
address for port 2.

Card Setup
Port Enable / Disable
Each port on the OMG-COMM2 -EX can be enabled or disabled with switch
position 8 on the DIP-switch. The port is enabled with the switch ‘On’ or
‘Closed’ and disabled when ‘Off’ or ‘Open’. If any port is disabled, be sure to
disable the interrupt request for that port by removing the IRQ jumper.
Interface Selection
RS-422/485
To select the RS-422/485 mode of operation install dip shunts in sockets found at
E6 and E7. E6 sets Port 1 and E7 sets Port 2.
RS-232
To select the RS-232 mode of operation install dip shunts in sockets found at E5
and E8. E5 sets Port 1 and E8 sets Port 2.
IRQ Selection
Headers E1 and E2 select the interrupt request for each serial port (E1 - Port 2, E2
- Port 1). If COM1: is selected, the corresponding jumper must be on the IRQ4
setting. If COM2: is selected, the corresponding jumper must be on IRQ3.

Any two or more ports can share a common IRQ, provided a polling driver is
used, by placing the jumpers on the same IRQ setting and setting the appropriate
selections at E3. The following examples show the setup if a polling driver is
used. NOTE: Windows does not provide a polling driver. Consult your particular
software for IRQ selection. If no interrupt is desired, remove the jumper.

Interrupt Modes
Headers E9 and E10 select the interrupt modes for each port. Each port must be
set in the correct mode to insure proper installation. E10 sets Port 1 and E9 sets
Port 2
‘N’ indicates the (N)ormal, single interrupt per port mode. ‘S’ Indicates the
(S)hared interrupt mode, which allows more than one port to access a single IRQ.
Any two or more ports can share a common IRQ by placing the jumpers on the
same IRQ setting, and setting the appropriate selections at E1. Consult your
particular software for IRQ selection. If no interrupt is desired, remove the
jumper. ‘M’ indicates the inclusion of a 1K ohm pull-down resistor required on
one port when sharing interrupts.

Figure 4 - Headers E9 and E10, Normal IRQ Mode
Set the jumpers to ‘S’ for shared interrupt mode on all blocks sharing an IRQ
except one. Set that port block for ‘M’. This provides the pull-down resistor
circuit that makes sharing of IRQs possible. If you are using more than one
OMG-COMM2 -EX or a compatible adapter in a bus you should only have one
port set to ‘M’. The following example shows both ports sharing a single IRQ.

Set the jumper to ‘S’ if you are using more than one OMG-COMM2 -EX in a bus
or you wish to completely remove the pull-down resistor for hardware
compatibility. Setting the adapter in this configuration when it is not
accompanied by a pull-down resistor will prevent the ports from triggering an
interrupt.

Headers E3 and E4
Position ‘A’ Determines whether the RS-485 driver is enabled by the UART
signal Request To Send (RTS) or always enabled. With the jumper installed in
position ‘A’, RTS enables the driver. Removing the jumper enables the driver
regardless of RTS. E4 sets Port 1 while E3 sets Port 2. This jumper should only
be set to ‘A’ if you are running the board in a multi-drop polled environment
such as RS-485, and you have software that ‘knows how to talk’ on the RS-485
bus. For normal point-to-point RS-422 (such as terminal emulation), make sure
that a jumper at position ‘A’ is not in place.
Positions ‘B’ & ‘C’ determine whether the board provides a direct ground
connection (as in RS-232 and most RS-422), or a 100 ohm high impedance
ground. The high impedance ground is normally used by RS-485 (and some RS-
422) to avoid ground loop currents with long cables. Position ‘B’ selects the
direct ground and position ‘C’ selects the 100 ohm high impedance ground.

Technical Description
Technical Description
The OMG-COMM2 -EX adapter utilizes the 16550 UART chip. This chip features
programmable baud rate, data format, interrupt control and has a 16 byte transmit
and receive FIFO.
Features
·
Full independent operation of ports allowing two ports RS-232, two ports
RS-422/485 or one port of each.
·
·
Addressable as COM1: - COM4: or any other I/O address up to 3FF Hex.
‘Shareable’ IRQs allow more than one port to share a single IRQ provided
the proper driver is used..
·
·
IRQs 2/9-5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 15 supported
Support for non-standard baud rates available. These baud rates (such as
31.25K or 76.8K baud) are supported by installing a different oscillator.
Please consult Technical Support for more information.
Modem Control Signal Considerations
Some software packages require the use of the modem handshake signals such
as CTS or DCD. Refer to your application software manual to determine the
requirements for modem control signals. If no requirements are mentioned, a safe
configuration is to tie DTR to DSR and DCD, and tie RTS to CTS. This
configuration will typically satisfy the modem control signal requirements for
most communications software.
Line Termination
Typically, each end of the RS-422/485 bus must have line terminating resistors. A
100 ohm resistor is across each RS-422/485 input and a 1K ohm pull-up/pull-
down combination bias the receiver inputs. If more than two RS-485 nodes are
configured in a multi-drop network, only the nodes at each end of the bus should
have the 100 ohm resistors installed.

Appendix A - Troubleshooting
Appendix A - Troubleshooting
Serial Utility test software is supplied with the adapter and will be used in the
troubleshooting procedures. By using this software and following these simple
steps, most common problems can be eliminated without the need to call
Technical Support.
1. Identify all I/O adapters currently installed in your system. This includes
your on-board serial ports, controller cards, sound cards etc. The I/O
addresses used by these adapters, as well as the IRQ (if any) should be
identified.
2. Configure your adapter so that there is no conflict with currently installed
adapters. No two adapters can occupy the same I/O address.
3. Make sure the adapter is using a unique IRQ The IRQ is typically selected
via an on-board header block. Refer to the section on Card Setup for help in
choosing an I/O address and IRQ.
4. Make sure the adapter is securely installed in a motherboard slot.
5. When running DOS, Windows 3.x or other operating systems refer to the
Serial Utilities software for that operating system and the User Manual to
verify that the adapter is configured correctly. The supplied software
contains a diagnostic program 'SSD' that runs under DOS and will verify if an
adapter is configured properly. This diagnostic program is written with the
user in mind and is easy to use. Refer to the DIAG.txt file in the dos\diag
directory for detailed instructions on using 'SSD'.
6. For Windows 95/98 and Windows NT, the diagnostic tool 'WinSSD' is
installed in the Omega Engineering folder on the Start Menu during the
setup process. First find the ports using the Device Manager, then use
'WinSSD' to verify that the ports are functional.
7. Always use the diagnostic software when troubleshooting a problem. This
will help eliminate any software issues and identify any hardware conflicts.

Appendix C - Electrical Interface
Appendix C - Electrical Interface
RS-232
Quite possibly the most widely used communication standard is RS-232. This
implementation has been defined and revised several times and is often referred
to as RS-232 or EIA/TIA-232. The IBM PC computer defined the RS-232 port on a
9 pin D sub connector and subsequently the EIA/TIA approved this
implementation as the EIA/TIA-574 standard. This standard is defined as the
9-Position Non-Synchronous Interface between Data Terminal Equipment and
Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment Employing Serial Binary Data
Interchange. Both implementations are in wide spread use and will be referred to
as RS-232 in this document. RS-232 is capable of operating at data rates up to 20
Kbps at distances less than 50 ft. The absolute maximum data rate may vary due
to line conditions and cable lengths. RS-232 is a single ended or unbalanced
interface, meaning that a single electrical signal is compared to a common signal
(ground) to determine binary logic states. The RS-232 and the EIA/TIA-574
specification define two types of interface circuits, Data Terminal Equipment
(DTE) and Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment (DCE). The OMG-COMM2 -EX is
a DTE device.
RS-422
The RS-422 specification defines the electrical characteristics of balanced voltage
digital interface circuits. RS-422 is a differential interface that defines voltage
levels and driver/receiver electrical specifications. On a differential interface,
logic levels are defined by the difference in voltage between a pair of outputs or
inputs. In contrast, a single ended interface, for examp le RS-232, defines the logic
levels as the difference in voltage between a single signal and a common ground
connection. Differential interfaces are typically more immune to noise or voltage
spikes that may occur on the communication lines. Differential interfaces also
have greater drive capabilities that allow for longer cable lengths. RS-422 is rated
up to 10 Megabits per second and can have cabling 4000 feet long. RS-422 also
defines driver and receiver electrical characteristics that will allow 1 driver and up
to 32 receivers on the line at once. RS-422 signal levels range from 0 to +5 volts.
RS-422 does not define a physical connector.
OMG-COMM2 -EX

Appendix C - Electrical Interface
RS-485
RS-485 is backwardly compatible with RS-422; however, it is optimized for
partyline 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 ports to be connected in a multi-drop bus and selectively polled. RS-485
allows cable lengths up to 4000 feet and data rates up to 10 Megabits per second.
The signal levels for RS-485 are the same as those defined by RS-422. RS-485 has
electrical characteristics that allow for 32 drivers and 32 receivers to be
connected to one line. This interface is ideal for multi-drop or network
environments. RS-485 tri-state driver (not dual-state) will allow the electrical
presence of the driver to be removed from the line. Only one driver may be active
at a time and the other driver(s) must be tri-stated. RS-485 can be cabled in two
ways, two wire and four wire mode. Two wire mode does not allow for full duplex
communication, and requires that data be transferred in only one direction at a
time. For half-duplex operation, the two transmit pins should be connected to the
two receive pins (Tx+ to Rx+ and Tx- to Rx-). Four wire mode allows full duplex
data transfers. RS-485 does not define a connector pin-out or a set of modem
control signals. RS-485 does not define a physical connector.

Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications
Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications
Serial data communications implies that individual bits of a character are
transmitted consecutively to a receiver that assembles the bits back into a
character. Data rate, error checking, handshaking, and character framing
(start/stop bits) are pre-defined and must correspond at both the transmitting
and receiving ends.
Asynchronous communications is the standard means of serial data
communication for PC compatibles and PS/2 computers. The original PC was
equipped with a communication or COM: port that was designed around an 8250
Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART). This device allows
asynchronous serial data to be transferred through a simple and straightforward
programming interface. Character boundaries for asynchronous communications
are defined by a starting bit followed by a pre-defined number of data bits (5, 6, 7,
or 8). The end of the character is defined by the transmission of a pre-defined
number of stop bits (usually 1, 1.5 or 2). An extra bit used for error detection is
often appended before the stop bits.

Figure 8 - Asynchronous Communications Bit Diagram
This special bit is called the parity bit. Parity is a simple method of determining if
a data bit has been lost or corrupted during transmission. There are several
methods for implementing a parity check to guard against data corruption.
Common methods are called (E)ven Parity or (O)dd Parity. Sometimes parity is
not used to detect errors on the data stream. This is refereed to as (N)o parity.
Because each bit in asynchronous communications is sent consecutively, it is
easy to generalize asynchronous communications by stating that each character
is wrapped (framed) by pre-defined bits to mark the beginning and end of the
serial transmission of the character. The data rate and communication parameters
for asynchronous communications have to be the same at both the transmitting
and receiving ends. The communication parameters are baud rate, parity, number
of
