Okay, I found some docs.
I just need to know what DMA sharing settings this card uses ( enable / disable ) ?
And what IRQ ( 2,4,5,7 )
And what SCSI ID# for the CDROM drive ?

Also I need to know the command lines for Autoexec.bat and config.sys ?
I installed with MV-PAS16 diskettes from Vogons lib. But they did not work completely.

I need to know how to configure jumper # J12

Does anyone know who this Sound card is programmed ?
Do you need to run the install program to configure the eprom on this sound card ?
Or can you just change the settings in Autoexec.bat and config.sys ?

PAS16 Rev B. I think starting Rev D, PAS16 went full soft-config.

Hi! My PAS16 cards can be fully configured by the install program, which in turn,
sets up autoexec.bat and config.sys accordingly..

That being said said, maybe the older cards require jumper settings.
Or feature physical jumpers to allow choosing default settungs, not sure.

Edit: IRQ and Port (220 ?) may also refer to the Thunderboard part, not sure.
DMA sharing could be required if multiple PAS16 cards are being installed in a single PC - again, not sure.

Yeah, I tried that. I performed a clean install using the PAS16 install package from Vogons library.
This install program is a Cadillac compared to the Sound Blaster install program.
The PAS16 installer scanned for DMA and IRQ settings and then completed. It was that easy.

Awwww.....But it did not work. When I run “cusdiag.exe” utility which tests the card for functionality.
It list that the card is not assigned an IRQ and DMA address ?
But when I look at autoexec.bat and config.sys the PAS16 installer put the correct entry settings in these files.

So I think the jumper to select which IRQ the card is suppose to use needs to be set correctly first.
I think it’s jumper section J12 in the photos I posted.

But I have the card somewhat working just not reliably, but it does work.
I need to figure out these IRQ jumper settings and eliminate any conflicts.

Hi, maybe this is helpful: Re: Media Vision Pro Audio Studio 16 strange behavior

Sorry for Necro post but nearly all PAS16 have jumpers to switch the Output jack from Line out to Speaker (amplified) out. It is that J9 on your card.
Here is the other jumpers, yes J12 is the IRQ.

Is this anecdotal? Which J9 jumper positioning disables/bypasses the internal amplification?

Sorry do not remember, have a note from 1995 in my PAS16 box about talking to the tech support (by phone, has their phone # and my customer ID#) and that is all my note says... other than "do not change" 🤣
The note had to do with the 650-0042 with LMSI/Phillips cdrom interface and setting some jumpers not documented in the PAS16 basic manual that came with it....
