ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ
To install the Compex RL2000-PCI NDIS 2.01 driver, follow
the instructions below:
Installation of IBM OS/2 Warp Connect in OS/2 Warp 3.0
======================================================
The procedure assumes you already installed OS/2 Warp Connect and have the
MPTS (Multi-Protocol Transport System) icon.
1. Start up OS/2 Warp in the PC.
2. Click on the MPTS (Multi-Protocol Transport System) icon.
3. The "Multi-Protocol Transport System" dialog box will appear, click the
Configure button.
4. At the "Adapters and Protocols" option list, select "LAN adapters and
protocols" option and click the Configure button.
5. The "LAPS Configuration" dialog box will appear, click the Other Adapters
button to add Compex RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter.

NDIS2 driver.
e.g.
A:\IBMLS\OS2
7. In the Network Adapters lists, highlight,
"Compex RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter"
and click the Add button to add inside the Current Configuration field.
8. Select the protocols to go with it.
9. Select OK when complete.
10. Reboot the station. The RL2000-PCI adapter is now ready to run.
Installation of IBM OS/2 LAN Server/Requester 4.0 in OS/2 Warp 3.0
===================================================================
NOTE:- Installation of Server and Requester steps are the same for
network cards.
Only Requester installation steps are described below.
The procedure assumes you are using CD-ROM in the installation.
Drive D is the CD device.
1. Start up OS/2 Warp in the PC.
2. Open an OS/2 Windows, change to drive D:\ and run INSTALL.
3. Select the service "IBM OS/2 LAN Requester"
4. Enter a unique name for the requester station.
5. Enter the domain name of the network domain server.
6. When "Select Network Adapter" window appear, click "Other adapters"
button below the window.
7. When prompted, insert the Compex RL2000-PCI driver disk in drive A
and enter the drive name and path to card configuration file.
Click OK.
e.g. A:\IBMLS\OS2
The Compex RL@000-PCI Ethernet Adapter name will be
added to the " Select Network Adapter " box of LAN adapters list.
8. From the list select "Compex RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter".
Click OK.
9. Click OK again to confirm the selected adapter is the correct one.
10. The installation program will then contiune to run until it completes.
11. Reboot the station. The RL2000-PCI adapter is now ready to operate.
Installation Procedure for installing IBM LAN Server OS/2 Server/Requester
==========================================================================
Please note that the instsallation procedure described below is based on
the IBM LAN Adapter and Protocol Support program that comes with IBM LAN
Server ver 3.0. For the other versions of LAN Adapter and Protocol Support
program, please refer to its "Installation Guide" for details.
1. Boot up IBM OS/2 and run IBM LAPS program.
a) Make sure the IBM OS/2 operating system is properly installed and
functioning. Insert the IBM LAPS (LAN Adapter and Protocol Support)
disk into the floppy disk drive). In IBM OS/2, select to run LAPS
program. Please refer to the "IBM LAN Adapter and Protocol Support
Configuration Guide" for more information about this utility.
b) From the IBM LAPS main dialog box, select 'INSTALL' button. If the
LAPS program has been installed on your system, it will start
installing and configurign the network drivers into your system. Go
to step 2 now and continue.
c) If the LAPS program hasn't been installed on your system yet, the
target drive dialog box will appear on the screen. Specify target
drive where you want the LAPS program to be installed (eg. drive 'C')
now and select 'OK' button.
d) The LAPS program begins to transfer files from the floppy disks to
the target drive specified in the above step. When it finishes,
select 'OK' button and it will return to the LAPS main dialog box.
Now, you have to select 'INSTALL' button again to install and
configure the driver of Compex LAN card into IBM LAN Server
environment.
2. Install NDIS 2.01 driver into the system.
Insert the Compex RL2000-PCI Driver Disk in drive A.
Type "A:\IBMLS\OS2" at the prompt where it asks you for the source of
driver and INF files and then select 'OK' button.
The LAPS program will copy the appropriate driver file and INF file from
the Driver Disk and then return to the main dialog box.
3. Configure network drivers.
a) From the main dialog box, select 'Configure' button.
b) In the 'Configuration' dialog box, choose the 'Configure LAN Transport'
option and select 'Continue' button.
c) When 'Configure Workstation' dialog box shows up, choose "Compex
RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter" from the 'Network Adapters'
list box by highlighting that entry. Then choose 'Add' to add the
Compex RL2000-PCI LAN card to the 'Current Configuration' list box.
d) Highlighting the appropriate protocols in the 'Protocols' list box.
Then choose 'Add' to add them to the 'Current Configuration' list box.
e) If you want to edit the card's configuration, choose 'Compex
RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter' and then choose 'Edit'.
After the editing is done, select the 'OK' button to return to the
'Configure Workstation' screen.
f) Select 'OK' button if all the configuration has been done and LAPS
program will return to the main dialog box.
g) Select 'Exit' button to indicate the completion of configuration and
then follow the instructions on the screen or refer to the "LAPS
Installation Guide" to complete the installation process of LAPS.
The LAPS program will update your CONFIG.SYS file in the IBM OS/2 boot
disk and then return to OS/2 prompt.
4. Install IBM LAN Server software or IBM LAN Server OS/2 Requester software.
Refer to the installation guide for IBM OS/2 LAN Server or OS/2 Requester
and follow the instructions to complete the rest of server/requester
program installation.
5. Reboot the computer.
All the changes made to your computer will not take effect until you
reboot the computer.
PROTOCOL.INI Parameter Definitions
==================================
Below is an explanation of each PROTOCOL.INI parameter for the Compex
RL2000-PCI Ethernet Adapter.
The only parameter that must be present is the "DRIVERNAME".
DRIVERNAME
range:RL2000$
Identifies the adapter driver. Use a unique value from the range
indicated for each Compex adapter installed in your computer. If you
had two Compex LAN Cards installed, RL2000$ will be the first drivername,
and RL20002$ will be the second drivername.
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.
