I am looking for instructions on how to install a Digi PCX Adaptor (8 port),
on a QNX 2.2 OS. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you for your time.

This is something of a guess. You probably need a driver. I think that
Digi cards and the driver were sold by a third party that is now out
of business. If you do not have the driver, you will just have to
hope that someone who does responds.

We have used 4-port PCX DigiBoards on our shipped systems and we used an
8-port board on one of our systems in our lab. Their setup is similar.
Do you have a DigiBoard manual?
You must set the board jumpers for interrupt and I/O port address.
For example, you could use interrupt 3 and com2 (2F8), and set the I/O port
addresses on the board for 280, 288, 290, 298, 2A0, 2A8, 2B0, 2B8.
On Qnx2 you must disable com2 so it is available for the DigiBoard.
Reference page 37 in the Qnx2 Operating System Manual.
You must use “osconfig” to modify your sys.cfg file and put “0000” where
“02F8” currently is listed. This allows the digiboard to use 02F8.
Now in the sys.init.# file you must add “stty inton=3” to enable the
interrupt 3 you selected above.
Upon reboot, you can do a mount, and you should see the eight serial
devices, $term1 => $term8.
Set the serial port parameters as needed using “stty [options] >$term1” ,etc
for each.
These could be put into the sys.init.# file or in a script/code file.
