[2] CLIENT DRIVER (For DOS and Windows 3.1 Only)
The Client Driver is a PCMCIA controller enable program. This enable
program only need for DOS and Windows 3.1 system.
To load the client driver, type
CARDGO [/IRQ=x][/IO=xxx][/MEM=xxxx][/?]
in DOS command line, or
DEVICE=[PATHNAME]CARDGO.EXE [/IRQ=x][/IO=xxx][/MEM=xxxx]
in config.sys file.
where:
[/IRQ=x] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your
card will be indicated.
The valid IRQs are 3,4,5,9,10,11.
[/IO=xxx] This specifies the I/O address. The valid ports are 300,
320,340,360.
[/MEM=xxxx] This specifies the memory window address. The valid
MEMs are D000, D400, D800, DC00.
[/?] This specifies to indicate the program to display all
the possible syntax only.
The default syntax is:
CARDGO /IRQ=5 /IO=300 /MEM=D400
After you executed the CARDGO.EXE, you will see the following display for
make sure install successful. Especially you must see the Node ID value.
Slot : 0 (for example)
IRQ : 5 (for example)
IO PORT : 300 (for example)
Memory : D400 (for example)
Here is the list of error messages the driver may display and correction
method we suggested:
[Error 1]
"The PCMCIA controller is not present or recognized"
There is no PCMCIA controller on your computer. Find another computer
with PCMCIA controller to use it.
[Error 2]
"There is no card in PCMCIA slot. Insert the card"
Card is not found in PCMCIA slot. Insert it.
[Error 3]
"The card in PCMCIA slot is not PCMCIA 10Mbps Ethernet Card. Insert it"
Card is not found in PCMCIA slot. Insert it.
[Error 4]
"The I/O ports do not respose. Change another one"
I/O ports do not response. Change anther one using /IO=xxx.
[Error 5]
"The I/O ports specified are invalid. Change another one"
I/O ports are invalid. Change anther one using /IO=xxx.
[Error 6]
"The IRQ specified is invalid. Change another one"
IRQ setting is invalid. Change anther one using /IRQ=x.
[Error 7]
"The memory address specified is invalid. Change another one"
Memory setting is invalid. Change another one using /MEM=xxxx.
[Error 8]
"Enabler has been registered"
This Client Driver has been registered once. Don't run it again.
[Error 9]
"Enabler can't registered as a client", or
"Can't map memory", or
"Configuration can't be requested"
These three errors are concerned with Socket and Card services
of the PCMCIA controller. Try another third part Socket and Card
service support this PCMCIA controller.
[3] SOCKET and CARD SERVICES INSTALLATION ADVISORY
For those who installed EMM386.EXE in your config.sys, please exclude
memory address D400-D7FF from your system. 10Mbps Ethernet Card
Enabler program will use this space to read Ethernet ID and CIS from
on-board serial EEPROM.
[Example]
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D400-D7FF
or
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF
For those who installed Card and Socket Services device driver in your
config.sys, please run CARDGO.EXE(see Client Driver) after those device
drivers. The default configuration is INT=5, PORT=300 and MEM=D400.

[4] DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM
DIAG.EXE is a complete test program that users can make
sure if the card is good or not. It provides the following
card test functions:
. IRQ verify
. IO base verify
. RAM test
. Card Node ID test
. Internal Loopback test
. External Loopback test
[Note] Before execute diagnostic program, you must make sure the client
driver, CARDGO.EXE, is installed.
[5] Netware DOS ODI Driver
This directory contains Ethernet DOS ODI driver PCMODI.COM that
supports NetWare 3.x and 4.x, NetWare Lite and other ODI interface
application.
PCMODI.COM : DOS/ODI Driver for NetWare 3.x and 4.0.
The following instructions let you to install Novel NetWare Ver. 386
DOS ODI Driver :
5.1 How To Install
---------------
You need following five files to install DOS ODI DRIVER.
a. LSL.COM ---- supported by Novell
b. PCMODI.COM ---- Novell DOS ODI Driver ,supported
by manufacturer
c. IPXODI.COM ---- supported by Novell
d. NETx.COM ---- supported by Novell
or
EMSNETx.EXE
or
XMSNETx.EXE
e. NET.CFG ---- optional,configuration file
After boot your workstation, type following comments on the console:
LSL <Enter>
PCMODI <Enter>
IPXODI <Enter>
NETx <Enter>
then,you can log in to the file server.
Normally, you will need a NET.CFG file to configure your your card.
You can see Netware 386 Installation appendix E for more
information about NET.CFG.
Below is a sample NET.CFG file:

int 5
Frame Ethernet_II
Frame Ethernet_802.3
Protocol IPX E0 Ethernet_802.2
:
:
[6] Packet Driver
The driver PCMPKT.COM is the Packet driver.
To load the packet driver , type PCMPKT 0X60.
PCMPKT syntax:
PCMPKT [-h] [-n] [-d] [-w] [-u] <PACKET_INT_NO> [IRQ] [IO_BASE]
where:
[-h] Show on-line help.
[-n] Convert ETHERNET II header to IEEE 802.3 header.
[-d] Do not start LAN card until this driver is
called by the higher layer programs first.
[-w] Running under Windows environment.
[-u] Unload packet driver.
<PACKET_INT_NO> This specifies the software interrupt (IRQ) where
you'll load the packet driver. It must be in the range
0x60 to 0x80.
[IRQ] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your
card will be indicated.
[IO_BASE] This specifies the I/O address .
Example:
The following command line loads the Ethernet Packet Driver
at software interrupt 60h, at I/O address 300, at hardware interrupt 5.
PCMPKT 0x60 0x5 0x300
or
PCMPKT 0x60
Note: The default I/O address is 300 .
Note: The default hardware interrupt is 5
Note: The placement of 0x prior to the parameters.
