10 Chapter 1 Brooktrout Analog Fax Boards
Setting the I/O address
Before installing the Brooktrout TR114 fax board into the RightFax server, you must manually set
the base I/O address of the board. The base I/O address is set on the board using switches 2 through
8 on the unit marked “SW1.” Refer to your Brooktrout documentation for the location of the SW1
unit on your particular fax board model.
Warning Do not use a pencil or any other object that conducts electricity to move the switches on the
Brooktrout TR114 board SW1 unit. Using graphite and other electrically conductive materials may cause
severe damage to the board.
The first fax channel on the board uses an address four greater than the base address, and each
channel after that uses an address four greater than the previous one. For example, if a Brooktrout
TR114-I4L board has its base address set to 260, the four fax channels on the board will use
addresses 264, 268, 26C, and 270. The recommended (factory set) base address for your first
Brooktrout TR114 board is 260. If you have multiple fax boards installed, be careful not to assign
overlapping I/O addresses.
The following table lists commonly used base address settings for TR114 fax boards. Using these
addresses may make it easier to prevent overlapping I/O addresses when you have multiple boards
installed.
After you set the I/O addresses on each of your TR114 boards, make sure that switch #1 on the SW1
unit is set to the On position for one and only one TR114 fax board. If you have only one TR114 board
installed, this switch must be set to On. If you have multiple TR114 boards installed, this switch
should be set to On on one board, and set to Off on all the others.
