Overview
The TS-Iridium provides a UART connection over PC104.
Full Iridium Documentation
To receive the full documentation for this board you must contact Celestech. This documentation is only intended to get the UART connection established.
Configuration
You must alter IRQ and the IO address to reflect your pin configuration.
TS-72XX
TS-7800
This example is from Debian:
. /initrd/ts7800.subr
pc104on
modprobe ts7800_isa16550 irq=7 io=0x3F8
To view if it loaded correctly, run 'dmesg' and you should find a line similar to this:
serial8250: ttyS2 at MMIO 0xee0003f8 (irq = 71) is a 16550A
So in this case the COM device will be /dev/ttyS2.
COM/IO Selection

COM2 | 2F8 | Off | Off | On |
COM3 | 3E8 | Off | On | Off |
COM4 | 2E8 | Off | On | On |
COM5 | 3A8 | On | Off | Off |
COM6 | 2A8 | On | Off | On |
COM7 | 3A0 | On | On | Off |
COM8 | 2A0 | On | On | On |

PLD Registers
Base + 0 will always return 0x9. This can be used to detect the presence of the board.
Base + 1 will return 0x6 on the first access, 0x7 on the second, 0x8 on the third, and on the 4th access it will return the PLD version.
Base + 2:
Bit | Access | Function |
---|---|---|
0 | R | JP1 On |
1 | R | JP2 On |
2 | R | JP3 On |
3 | R | JP4 On |
Base + 3:
Bit | Access | Function |
---|---|---|
0 | RW | Modem Power Toggle |
1 | R | Modem Power Status |
2 | R | LED Status (1 on) |
3 | R | JP5 On |
Iridium Power
With JP5 enabled, the Iridium modem will receive power by default. With either configuration of that jumper you can always toggle the power from the PLD.
