   3.1 Hardware installation

       There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio 
       family multiport board.

       ISA board
       ---------
       You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector
       as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware
       installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further.
       Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly.

       PCI/UPCI board
       --------------
       You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict
       with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation
       procedure in User's Manual in advance.

       PCI IRQ Sharing
       -----------
       Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
       4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed 
       together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.


   3.2 Driver files

       The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The
       first step, anyway, is to copy driver file
       driv_linux_smart_vx.x_build_yymmddhh.tgz" into specified directory.
       e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below.

       # cd / 
       # mkdir moxa 		
       # cd /moxa
       # cp /mnt/fd0/<driver directory>/driv_linux_smart_vx.x_build_yymmddhh.tgz
       # tar -xzvf driv_linux_smart_vx.x_build_yymmddhh.tgz
       
       or
       
       # cd /
       # mkdir moxa
       # cd /moxa
       # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/
	 driv_linux_smart_vx.x_build_yymmddhh.tgz
       # tar -xzvf driv_linux_smart_vx.x_build_yymmddhh.tgz

       Note: xx=version, yy=year, mm=month, dd=day, hh=hour 

   3.3 Device naming convention
   
       You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser.
       Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to
       run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4.
       If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5.

       Dialin and callout port
       -----------------------
       This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are
       two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port
       which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention
       is "cumxx". The MUE series multiport board's dial-in port name
       is "ttyMUExx" and callout port name is "cumuexx".

       Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
       -----------------------------------------------
       Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is 
       pre-defined as below.

       Board Num.	 Dial-in Port	      Callout port
       1st board	ttyM0  - ttyM7	      cum0  - cum7
       2nd board	ttyM8  - ttyM15       cum8  - cum15
       3rd board	ttyM16 - ttyM23       cum16 - cum23
       4th board	ttyM24 - ttyM31       cum24 - cum31

       For MUE series:
       
       Board Num.	 Dial-in Port	      Callout port
       1st board	ttyMUE0  - ttyMUE7    cumue0  - cumue7
       2nd board	ttyMUE8  - ttyMUE15   cumue8  - cumue15
       3rd board	ttyMUE16 - ttyMUE23   cumue16 - cumue23
       4th board	ttyMUE24 - ttyMUE31   cumue24 - cumue31

       !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
       Under Kernel 2.6 the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM*
       device instead.
       !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

       Board sequence
       --------------
       This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set
       in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board
       will be installed in the system automatically driven.
       Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards.
       For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI
       has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards.

   3.4 Module driver configuration
       Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver
       installation, please skip this paragraph.
       

       ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver--------------------  
       3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number
          Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices 
          which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell
          script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure. 
          This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still
          need to do this procedure when:
          a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7"
             section.
          b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you 
             add/delete one MOXA board.
          c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the 
             shell script "msmknod"

          The procedure is:
	  # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
	  # ./msmknod

          This shell script will require the major number for dial-in 
          device and callout device to create tty device. You also need 
          to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major 
          numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If
          you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7"
          for more detailed procedure.
          Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device 
          naming.
          
       3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities
          Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the
          all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once.
          But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source
          code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see 
          "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again.
                    
          Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run

	  # make;

          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	  In kernel 2.4.x, be sure there is a link (/usr/src/linux) to your
	  krenel source. If there is no link to your kernel source, please
	  follow the instruction below to make a link.
	  # ln -s /usr/src/linux /usr/src/<kernel-source directory>
	 
	  For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core 1:
	  # make SP1

	  For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
	  # make SP2
          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

	  The driver files and utilities will be compiled respectively.

       3.4.3 Install the MOXA driver and utilities
	  To install the MOXA driver and utilities, you have to execute the
	  command as below in /moxa/mxser directory. The driver and the
	  utilities will be installed to the system directory respectively.

	  # make install

          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
       	  For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core 1:
	  # make installsp1

	  For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
	  # make installsp2
          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
  
       ------------- Load MOXA driver--------------------  
       3.4.4 Load the MOXA driver  

	  # modprobe mxser <argument>
		or
	  # modprobe mxupcie <option>

	  will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
	  if "mxser" (or "mxupcie") is activated. If the MOXA board is
	  ISA board, the <argument> is needed. Please refer to section
	  "3.4.5" for more information.

	  The "mxupcie" is for MUE series multiport board only.

	  To simplify the processes above, we provide a single step to 
	  build, install and load the MOXA driver. You may execute the
	  ./mxinstall in /moxa/mxser/ to use the MOXA product.

	  # ./mxinstall
 
       ------------- Load MOXA driver on boot --------------------  
       3.4.5 For the above description, you may manually execute 
          "modprobe mxser" (or "modprobe mxupcie") to activate this
	  driver and run "rmmod mxser" (or "rmmod mxupcie") to remove it. 
          However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to 
          eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be 
          achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify 
          the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver". 
          
          But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command 
          to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the 
          rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser" 
          manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error 
          encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is 
          completed, follow the below step.
	  
	  Run following command for setting rc files.

	  # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
	  # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d
	  # cd /etc/rc.d

	  Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist, 
	  create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission.
	  Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line, 

          Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command.

       3.4.6. If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system, 
          you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given 
	  board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are 
	  as follows.

	  modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x???
				|      |     |	  |
				|      |     |	  +- 4th ISA board
				|      |     +------ 3rd ISA board
				|      +------------ 2nd ISA board
				+------------------- 1st ISA board

	  
	  The MUE series multiport board provides two options to set
	  the interface and terminator resistor while loading the driver.
	  The two options are available while working in RS-422 and
	  RS-485 mode. Option's value is applied to all ports on the
	  devices.
	
	  modprobe mxupcie interface=2 terminator=1
				     |		  |
				     |		  +- 120 ohm
				     +-------------- RS-422

	  The interface and terminator have values to set as fellow.
	  
	  Option	Value	Comment

	  interface 	 1	RS-232
			 2	RS-422
			 4	RS-485 2 wire
			 8	RS-485 4 wire
	
	  terminator	 0	  0 ohm
			 1	120 ohm

       3.4.7 Unload the MOXA driver
	  # rmmod mxser
		or
	  # rmmod mxupcie

	  will deactivate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
	  if "mxser" (or "mxupcie") is activated or not.

       3.4.8 Clean the MOXA driver and utilities
	  Clean the MOXA driver and utilities in /moxa/mxser, you have
	  to execute the command below to clean the files.
	
	  # make clean

      3.4.9 Uninstall the MOXA driver and utilities
	  The MOXA driver and utilities will be removed from the system
	  respectively after executing the command below in /moxa/mxser.

	  # make uninstall
	  

   3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x
       
       Note: To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel
             source package.
   
       3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel.
          # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
          # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old
       
          For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link:
          # cd /usr/src
          # ln -s linux-2.4 linux

       3.5.2 Create link
	  # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c
	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.h mxser.h
	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxupcie.c mxupcie.c
	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxupcie.h mxupcie.h

          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
	  For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core 1:
	  You have to add a define in mxser.c first.
	  Add the following line into mxser.c.
	
	  ...
	  #define MXSER_VERSION "1.xx"
	  #define MXSERMAJOR	30
	  #define MXSERMINOR	35

	  #define SP1		1 <--- Add the line.
	  ...

	  For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
	  You have to add a define in mxser.c first.
	  Add the following line into mxser.c.
	
	  ...
	  #define MXSER_VERSION "1.xx"
	  #define MXSERMAJOR	30
	  #define MXSERMINOR	35

	  #define SP2		1 <--- Add the line.
	  ...

          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

       3.5.3 Modify kernel configuration file.
          Add the following lines into configuration file.

	  For 2.6.x:
	  Please modify the Kconfig file.
	  /usr/src/<kernel-source directory>/drivers/char/Kconfig

	  ...
	  config MOXA_INTELLIO
	  ...
	  config MOXA_SMARTIO
	  ...
	  config MOXA_SMARTIO_MUE		 <-- Add the
	     tristate "Moxa SmartIO MUE support" <-- three
	     depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD	 <-- lines in here.
	  ...

	  For 2.4.x 
	  Please modify the Config.in file.
	  /usr/src/<kernel-source directory>/drivers/char/Config.in

	  ...
	  tristate ' Moxa Intellio support' CONFIG_MOXA_INTELLIO
	  tristate ' Moxa SmartIO support' CONFIG_MOXA_SMARTIO
	  tristate ' Moxa SmartIO MUE support' CONFIG_MOXA_SMARTIO_MUE <-- Add
	  ...								   the
	  ...								   line.
	  ...

       3.5.4 Modify the kernel Makefile 
	  Add the following line to the last line of Makefile.

	  /usr/src/<kernel-source directory>/drviers/char/Makefile

	  ...
	  ...
	  obj-$(CONFIG_MOXA_SMARTIO)	 += mxser.o
	  obj-$(CONFIG_MOXA_SMARTIO_MUE) += mxupcie.o <-- Add the line.
	  ...

       3.5.5 Add CAP address list for ISA boards. For PCI boards user,
          please skip this step.
          
	  In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by
	  parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to
	  assign it within driver's source code. If you will not
	  install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion.
	  The instructions to modify driver source code are as
	  below.
	  a. # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
	     # vi mxser.c

	  b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below.

	     static int mxserBoardCAP[]
	     = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};

	  c. Change the address within this array using vi. For
	     example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address
	     0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change
	     the source code as follows.

	     static int mxserBoardCAP[]
	     = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00};

       3.5.6 Setup kernel configuration
          
          Configure the kernel:
          
            # cd /usr/src/linux
            # make menuconfig
            
          You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character
          devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa 
          SmartIO support] (or [Moxa SmartIO MUE support]) driver with
	  "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then select [Exit] to exit this
	  program. 
          
       3.5.7 Rebuild kernel
	  The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your 
          reference only.
	  For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document.

	  	For 2.6.x:
		a. cd /usr/src/linux
		b. make clean		/* take a few minutes
		d. make			/* take probably 10-20 minutes
		e. make modules_install	/* take a few minutes
		f. make install		/* copy boot image to correct position


		For 2.4.x:
		a. cd /usr/src/linux
		b. make clean		/* take a few minutes
		c. make dep		/* take a few minutes
		d. make bzImage		/* take probably 10-20 minutes
		e. make modules_install	/* take a few minutes
		f. make install		/* copy boot image to correct position

	  Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the
	  correct position. 

	  If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf 
	  'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path, 
	  or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz).
	  After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo".

	  Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to
	  go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in 
          directory /usr/src/linux.

   3.6 Custom configuration
       Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you
       still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to
       change these parameters are shown as below.

       Change Device name
       ------------------
       If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming
       convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code
       within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod"
       by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" (or "ttyMUE") and "cum" (or "cumue")
       and change them to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device
       names you need next time executed.

       Change Major number
       -------------------
       If major number 30 and 31 had been occupied, you may have to select
       2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change
       major numbers.

       3.6.1 Find free major numbers
	  In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied
	  in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available.
	  e.g. 40, 45.

       3.6.2 Create special files
	  Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with
	  specified major numbers.

       3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number
	  Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line
	  contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below.
	  #define	  MXSERMAJOR		  40
	  #define	  MXSERCUMAJOR		  45

       3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver.

   3.7 Verify driver installation
       You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status
       log reported by this driver whenever it's activated.
       
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Utilities
   There are 4 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon, msterm
   and muestty. These 4 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
   be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.

   Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and
   make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility.

   msdiag - Diagnostic
   --------------------
   This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio 
   board found by driver in the system.

   msmon - Port Monitoring
   -----------------------
   This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
   activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
   (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
   Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
   the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
   is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
   (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
   on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
   parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.

   msterm - Terminal Emulation
   ---------------------------
   This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
   especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
   application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
   port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
   dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.

   muestty - Port Configuration Tool
   ---------------------------------
   The utility provieds options to set and get the interface and terminator
   resistor for the MUE series.

	Usage: muestty <operation> device
   
	device: The MUE seires device node.

	operation:	-h	  Help
			-g	  Get interface and terminator type
			-i intf	  Set interface type with options below
			-t value  Set terminator resistor with options below

	  intf		RS232	  RS-232 mode
			RS422	  RS-422 mode
			RS4852W	  RS-485 2 wire mode
			RS4854W   RS-485 4 wire mode
		
	  value		NONTERM	  None terminator resistor
			120TERM   120ohm terminator resistor

   For example:
	
	To set the interface
	# muestty -i RS422 /dev/ttyMUE2

	To set the terminator resistor
	# muestty -t 120TERM /dev/ttyMUE5
   
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

6. Troubleshooting

   The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as
   possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical
   support team to get more help.


   Error msg: More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board 
              and after are ignored.
   Solution:
   To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa
   driver supports up to 4 boards.

   Error msg: Request_irq fail, IRQ(?) may be conflict with another device.
   Solution:
   Other PCI or ISA devices occupy the assigned IRQ. If you are not sure
   which device causes the situation, please check /proc/interrupts to find
   free IRQ and simply change another free IRQ for Moxa board.

   Error msg: Board #: C1xx Series(CAP=xxx) interrupt number invalid.
   Solution:
   Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Please set
   one IRQ (IRQ doesn't equal to zero) for one Moxa board.

   Error msg: No interrupt vector be set for Moxa ISA board(CAP=xxx).
   Solution:
   Moxa ISA board needs an interrupt vector.Please refer to user's manual
   "Hardware Installation" chapter to set interrupt vector.

   Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family driver!
   Solution:
   Load Moxa driver fail, the major number may conflict with other devices.
   Please refer to previous section 3.7 to change a free major number for
   Moxa driver.

   Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family callout driver!
   Solution:
