INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1)   Insert CNet's CNF301 PC Card Ethernet adapter into your
     computer's Type II PC Card slot.

2)   Connect the Media Coupler to the adapter's 15-pin connector.

3)   Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the
     Media Coupler. (Refer to the User's Manual for exact instructions).

4)   Run the "NETSETUP.EXE" program in the "Client Setup" diskette.

5)   Choose the default value "Non-LK250 keyboard" as the keyboard type.

6)   Select "DECNET" in the "Network Transport" screen.

7)   Insert the "PWRKS V4.1 DNET TRNSPRT" diskette into the disk drive.

8)   Assign a destination drive (default is C:).

9)   The following are the values to input for the installation dialog.
     <1> Create an initial workstation diskette: "NO"
     <2> Input workstation node name and address.
     <3> Use asynchronous DECNET (ASYNC): "NO"
     <4> Use only DECNET DOS components: "NO"
     <5> Input server node name and address.
     <6> Append LK250 keyboard setup info to the
         AUTOEXEC.BAT file: "NO"
     <7> Select network adapter type: "ETHERNET"
     <8> Choose the "Other NDIS" item and input the NDIS driver path to be
         A:\ or B:\ plus "NDIS2\CNF301.DOS"
     <9> Input "A:\NDIS2\" to get the path of the PROTOCOL.INI file
    <10> Add the system service DOS subdirectory to
         the DOS search path: "NO"

10)  In the CONFIG.SYS file, modify the statement
     "SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS\ /P"  to be
     "SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS\ /P /E:319" .
     The value of the "/E" option should not be less than 319.

11)  The PROTOCOL.INI file may need to be revised. Make sure the
     IRQ, NI_IRQ variable, is in agreement with the PC Card's IRQ.

     file is similar to the example below:
                  :           :         :
            [DEVICE=Socket Services command]
            [DEVICE=Card Services command]
            [DEVICE=resource manager]
                  :           :         :
            DEVICE=C:\COPEN\COPEN.EXE /IO=xxx /IRQ=yy
                  :           :         :
            DEVICE=C:\DECNET\CNF301.DOS
