DLC - DOS LAN Requester Workstation
Installing and configuring the Intel TokenExpress(TM)
PRO adapter DLC driver for IBM Environments
=====================================================
Location of driver: disk 2 \DOSDLC
Quick Installation
------------------
Use the Automatic Setup option in TokenSet (disk 1) to install
the DLC drivers.
Sample CONFIG.SYS file
----------------------
FILES=20
BUFFERS=50
LASTDRIVE=E
DEVICE=C:\DLC\TPROARB1.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DLC\TPRODLC2.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DLC\DXMT0MOD.SYS <--- Only for Netbios support
General Installation
--------------------
The TokenExpress installation is dependent upon whether or
not your application requires the IBM Netbios protocol.
1. Create a directory on your system hard disk for the
TokenExpress DLC drivers.
2. Insert the Intel Driver disk 2 into drive A:.
3. Copy the Interrupt Arbitrator (A:\DOSDLC\TPROARB1.SYS) and
the DLC driver (A:\DOSDLC\TPRODLC2.SYS) to the newly created
directory on your hard drive.
4. If you are NOT using Netbios, skip to step 5. If you are
using Netbios, copy the DXMT0MOD.SYS file to the newly created
directory on your hard drive. The Netbios file, DXMT0MOD.SYS,
is found on the IBM LAN Support Program diskette (must be
purchased from IBM Corporation).
5. Edit your CONFIG.SYS file and add the following lines:
FILES=20
BUFFERS=50
LASTDRIVE=(drive_letter)
DEVICE=(full_path)\TPROARB1.SYS
DEVICE=(full_path)\TPRODLC2.SYS
DEVICE=(full_path)\DXMT0MOD.SYS <--- Only for Netbios support
Where:
(drive_letter) is the designator of the
last local drive on your PC - e.g. E or F or ...)
(full_path) consists of the drive designator
followed by the name of the directory into which
the DLC driver and interrupt arbitrator have been
copied. Refer to steps 1 and 2 above.
6. Reboot your PC and install IBM DOS LAN Requester.
Special Considerations
----------------------
An optional country code can be specified when loading the
interrupt arbitrator TPROARB1.SYS. Drivers loaded subsequently
may then use this country code to display messages in the
selected language.
The country code is specified in the CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
DEVICE = (path)\TPROARB1.SYS <optional country code>
At this time, 001 for U.S. English is the only supported country
code.
The TokenExpress DLC driver supports five (5) optional parameters.
These parameters are specified in the CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
DEVICE=(path)\TPRODLC2.SYS -I<adapter number>9 -A -ON
-N<adapter number><node address>
-W<adapter number><work space size>
Where:
- or / precedes parameter option and <adapter number>
specifies 0 or 1.
-I<adapter number>9 forces IRQ 9 to be used instead of IRQ 2
-A forces primary adapter to be configured as alternate
adapter (1).
-N<adapter number><node address> allows a locally administered
node address to be configured.
-W<adapter number><work space size> allows the LLC work space
size to be specified. (Min. 3072 - Max. 16384 bytes)
(Default = 4096 bytes.)
-ON specifies that an older version of IBM NetBIOS
(previous to v1.3) is being used.
Examples:
REM *** Int 5C Arbitrator Driver ***
DEVICE=<path>\TPROARB1.SYS 001
or
DEVICE=\LSP\DXMA0MOD.SYS 001 (IBM PC LAN Support v1.3)
REM *** DLC Driver ***
DEVICE=<path>\TPRODLC2.SYS -I09 -N1400001234567 -W05678
REM *** IBM NetBIOS Driver ***
DEVICE=\LSP\DXMT0MOD.SYS (IBM PC LAN Support v1.3)
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
