D. Driver Installation for Microsoft Windows 3.x
Please refer to Content C., in step 3, mark "Netware Client 32 for DOS"
and "Client 32 for Windows", then follow step 2...9 to complete the
installation.
E. Driver Installation for Microsoft Windows 95 OSR2
If you have installed the Microsoft Client in your Windows 95 system
OSR2, you should remove the adapter object and NDIS 3 driver for the
EN2220/EN2225 series CardBus PC card from Windows 95 system. No matter if you
have installed the DEC DC21x4 based driver or Accton's NDIS 3 driver, before you
install EN2220/EN2225 Series Client 32 driver, you should take the
following steps.
E.1 Install the Client 32 driver installation information file
==========================================================
1. Open an MS-DOS Command Prompt window.
2. Insert the Accton EN2220/EN2225 Fast Ethernet Driver Diskette into
your PC's floppy drive (A: or B:)
3. Type the following DOS commands:
CD \WINDOWS\INF
RENAME NETPCI.INF *.IN_
RENAME ACCNDIS.INF *.IN_
COPY A:\LANDRV32\ACC222X.INF
EXIT
Notice: The above commands are collected in the SetWin95.BAT file
in the directory \LANDRV32. That is you can execute the
following program to install the Client 32 driver
installation information file.
A:\LANDRV32\SETWIN95 C:\WINDOWS
where C:\WINDOWS is your Windows 95 system directory.
4. Shutdown and turn off the machine.
E.2 Client 32 Driver Installation on Windows 95 OSR2
=====================================================
5. Plug Accton's EN2220/EN2225 Fast Ethernet CardBus PC card into one
of the Master PCI slots of your PCI platform.
6. Turn the power on and then boot from Windows 95.
7. Windows 95 will prompt with PCI Ethernet Controller in the New
Hardware Found dialog box.
8. Windows 95 will prompt with "Accton EN2220/EN2225 Fast Ethernet
CardBus PC Card" in the New Hardware Found dialog box.
9. Follow instructions to complete the installation.
Note: Windows 95 OSR2 will ask you to key in the proper path of the
following diskette:
a. NetWare Client 32 for Windows 95 Disk
b. Accton EN2220/EN2225 Fast Ethernet Driver Diskette
Diskette --> Insert Accton EN2220/EN2225 Fast Ethernet Driver
Diskette, then, assign the path to A:\LANDRV32 or
B:\LANDRV32
c. Windows 95 CD-ROM
F. Parameter Description for ACC222X.LAN
The following parameters are used in ACC222X.LAN.
1. SLOT: specifies which adapter is enabled when multiple EN2220/EN2225
adapters are found in your computer. The SLOT keyword is
an index value corresponding to PCI BIOS. The value of
SLOT is different from one machine to the other.
Ex: LOAD ACC222X SLOT=10001 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
LOAD ACC222X SLOT=10004 FRAME=ETHERNET_II
2. FRAME : specifies which frame type is used by the driver. Accepted
values are Ethernet_802.2, Ethernet_802.3, Ethernet_II and
Ethernet_SNAP. Multiple frame types can be enabled by the
driver by loading the same driver with different FRAME types.
Ex: LOAD ACC222X FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
LOAD ACC222X FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3
LOAD ACC222X FRAME=ETHERNET_II
LOAD ACC222X FRAME=ETHERNET_SNAP
3. NODE : Use a different address to replace the node address burned
in EEPROM.
Ex: LOAD ACC222X NODE=0200E8001122
4. Attachment: Specifies the connection type of the EN2220/EN2225
adapter.
Default value is AUTODETECT.
Driver Parameters Description
================= =====================================
AUTODETECT (Autodetect)
for EN2220/EN2225, run-time autosenses
the connection type and line speed.
TP (Twisted Pair)
Connector type is RJ-45.
When Line_Speed=10, it is 10BaseT and
when Line_Speed=100, it is 100BaseTx.
TP_FULL_DUPLEX (Twisted pair - Full Duplex)
Connector is RJ-45 with Full Duplex
mode enabled. The throughput is 20Mbps
for 10BaseT and 200Mbps for 100BaseTx.
TP_NO_LINK_TEST (Twisted pair with link test disabled)
Connector is RJ-45, but the link test
function of the transceiever is
disabled.
This function should be enabled if
your repeater does not support the link
test function.
Ex: LOAD ACC222X TP
LOAD ACC222X TP LINE_SPEED=100
LOAD ACC222X AUTODETECT
LOAD ACC222X TP_FULL_DUPLEX LINE_SPEED=100
5. LINE_SPEED: (Line_Speed)
Specify the speed of your network adapter.
Accepted values are 10 and 100. No default value is
assigned.
6. TURBO : (Turbo mode)
Enhances the performance when your PCI platform uses SATURN
CDC or PCMC chip.
7. SNOOZE : (Snooze mode)
With EN2220/EN2225 adapter, Snooze mode can reduce power
consumption. The NIC stops most of its internal clock
operation except when network activity is detected.
This is not a default function of ACC222X.LAN.
8. CAPTURE_EFFECT: (Enables the function for solving the Capture Effect
problem.)
The driver offers a vendor supported function to avoid
starvation when multiple collisions occur on
the line. But this function is not part of the
Ethernet SPEC. You can use this parameter to enable
the function.
