ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍͼ

The SETUP.EXE program is a program for setting up the SN2000 Ethernet
adapters.  This program not only allows you to configure the adapters, but
also allows you to check the adapter functionality and link states.

To run this program, execute one of the following commands:

      SETUP
      SETUP /F
      SETUP /D

Run the setup program with the /F switch (SETUP /F) only if the card's EEPROM
data have been corrupted or if you experiencing any other difficulty when
running the program without the /F switch.

You can also configure the adapter in non-interactive mode by specifying the
/D switch (SETUP /D).  The SETUP program will load the configuration values
specified in  the SETUP.DAT text file.  This file can be found on the same
directory as  the SETUP.EXE program.

The following is a sample SETUP.DAT file:

   Connector Type       UTP     --------> This sets the media type
   I/O Base Address     0x300   --------> This sets the I/O base address
   Interrupt Number     5       --------> This sets the IRQ number
   ROM Size             16k     --------> This sets the boot ROM size
   ROM Address          0xD0000 --------> This specifies the boot ROM address

NOTES:
   1. SETUP/D only affects the parameters that are specified in the SETUP.DAT
      file; other configuration parameters will remain unchanged.
   2. If the SETUP.DAT file specifies any parameter settings related to the
      boot ROM, the boot ROM will be automatically enabled.  Otherwise,
      it is disabled.
   3. If the connector type is not specified, the driver will automatically
      detect the media port used in the network connection.

2. The Setup main menu provides three options:

   SetUp Configuration
       - This option allows you to manually specify configuration values for
         the adapter.

   Adapter Basic Diagnostics
       - This option performs a diagnostic test on the various adapter
         components.

   Network Diagnostics
       - This option allows you to test the connectivity of the adapter on the
         network.

3. Setup also lets you view the current adapter configuration, including:

     Viewed items: Your Current Configuration

   1. Select the SetUp Configuration option to manually configure your adapter.
      Here you specify settings for connector type, I/O base address,
      interrupt number and whether or not to enable the remote boot function.

   2. The Adapter Basic Diagnostics option checks the major components of the
      adapter and cabling to ensure proper operation.

   3. Select Network Diagnostics to perform a live transmission test for
      checking the adapter's network connectivity. This test requires that
      LSL.COM, sn2000.COM and IPXODI.COM be located on the same directory as
      the Setup program.

   1. The Connector Type field allows you to specify the adapter port that
      will be used in the network connection.

   2. The I/O Base Address field allows you to specify the I/O base address of
      the adapter.

   3. The Interrupt Number field lets you specify the adapter's IRQ number.

   4. The Remote Boot field allows you to use the remote boot function of the
      adapter. This however requires that you install a boot ROM chip on the
      provided socket on the adapter.

   5. The Boot ROM Address field allows you to specify the starting address of
      the boot ROM. This field only appears when the boot ROM function is
      enabled.

   6. The Boot ROM Size field specifies the boot ROM size.  This field only
      appears when the boot ROM function is enabled.

Adapter Basic Diagnostics
-------------------------

The Adapter Basic Diagnostics option allows you to perform a series of tests
on the adapter. These tests include:

   1. Current I/O Base Address
   2. DC-DC Convert, Oscillator, Crystal T7213
   3. EEPROM
   4. LAN Setup Registers
   5. Memory
   6. LAN Control Functions

        º Set up as a slave station  º
        ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍͼ

The Network Diagnostics option tests the ability of the adapter to communicate
with other stations on the network. This test requires setting up of one
master station and one slave station. The master station is responsible for
sending test packets to the network, while the slave station is responsible
for sending back these packets to the master station.  There is good
connectivity if all the packets sent by the master were able to come back.

To set up a station as master, select "Set up as a master station".  To set up
the other station as slave, select "Set up as a slave station".

Before running this test though, ensure to copy first LSL.COM, IPXODI.COM,
sn2000.COM and NET.CFG to the same directory where the Setup program resides.
Also, ensure that the slave and master stations use the same frame type
specified in the net.cfg file.

When you start the test, these messages appear on each station:
