I often come across used and recycled parts, ie; I/O cards with no documentation. Some of them will have silkscreening to show the settings but most don't. I find it a waste of time to try 20 different combinations of settings, each time rebooting just to enable a com port! I was wondering if anyone had a good link for a database that you could search by manufacturer ect... My old employer had s Microhouse cd rom with every board known to man documented. Or would anyone point me towards a good book.
