Duplex This is an ASCII file called DUPLEX.TXT in the ATI CardAssistant \TXT\GENERAL directory. Use a text editor or word processor with a mono-space font such as Courier to print this file if needed for reference. ************************************************************ ** ** ** Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex Options ** ** ** ************************************************************ Definitions =========== Duplexing. A performance option that lets you choose how the adapter sends and receives packets over the network. Half duplex. The adapter performs one operation at a time (because send and receive lines are shared); it either sends or receives. Full duplex. (Requires full-duplex switching hub.) The adapter sends and receives packets simultaneously by using a different wire to perform each function. This feature can improve adapter performance by eliminating collisions. Warning: Incorrectly forcing a specific duplex mode may result in poor performance. Consult your LAN administrator before forcing a duplex mode or if you don't know what kind of hub you're attached to. Configuring for full-duplex =========================== If the link is full duplex, set up the connection type using the SET2400 utility on the CardAssistant diskette. Note that performance may suffer if your hub is not full duplex and you configure the adapter to full duplex. Leave the adapter on half duplex if you are not sure what type of hub you are connected to. 1. Boot the computer into DOS with no drivers loaded. (In Windows 95, boot into the "Command prompt only" option. Press the F8 key when the message "Starting Windows 95" appears, and select "Command Prompt only", which is Startup menu choice 6.) 2. Insert the CardAssistant diskette in the floppy drive and launch SET2400; type "A:\set2400". 3. Use the arrow keys to select the card (if necessary). Press ENTER. 4. Select Configuration. 5.
