If the INSTALL program does not work correctly please install and configure the enabler and network operating system files manually. Installation of the enabler is described in section 3. Installation of the network operating system drivers is described in README.TXT files in each of the appropriate directories. 2.1 Overview of the INSTALL Program A. Can auto-configure the PCMCIA Ethernet Card for most notebook computers. B. Can modify some Networking Operating System files that are necessary for your PCMCIA Ethernet Card under the following networking systems: Novell Netware Microsoft LAN Manger Microsoft Windows for Workgroups Artisoft LANtastic v6.x Packet Driver C. Can copy the proper files to the subdirectories where the network operating system files are installed. 2.2 What You Need Before Running INSTALL A. Before installing your PCMCIA Ethernet Card, you must first make sure that your network operating system is already installed. B. Make sure that the PCMCIA Ethernet Card has been inserted into your system's PCMCIA socket. 2.3 How to run INSTALL program To run INSTALL, at the DOS prompt type: A:\>INSTALL Read each screen carefully and respond appropriately to each prompt. 3.0 Manually Installing and Configuring the Enabling Software 3.1 Overview of Enabling Software As with other PCMCIA devices, the PCMCIA Ethernet Card must be enabled by a software program before it can be used. There are two kinds of PCMCIA enabler software: * Direct Enablers. * Card and Socket Services client drivers. Whenever the card has been powered off (when the card is removed or the computer goes into "sleep" mode), the direct enabler must be executed again. 3.2 Installing the Enabling Software Manually 3.2.1 Overview of the Direct Enabler --- DIRECTEN.EXE If you do not have card and socket service software installed, you should install direct enabler to enable your PCMCIA Ethernet Card. The direct enabler DIRECTEN.EXE program contained on this disk is used both as a device driver used in your computer's CONFIG.SYS file, and also as an executable program run from the DOS prompt. This version will directly configure the PCMCIA Ethernet Card for the following PCMCIA controllers: Intel 82365SL (and compatibles) Vadem VG-365/465 Cirrus Logic Databook TCIC Sharp PHIC IBM ThinkPad Toshiba 3300 DIRECTEN.EXE can also enable the card using Socket Services versions 1.xx and 2.xx, if Socket Services is present but Card Services is not. 3.2.2 Using DIRECTEN.EXE in CONFIG.SYS You can create or modify your system's CONFIG.SYS using a text editor. The direct enabler CONFIG.SYS command line has the format: DEVICE=[path]\DIRECTEN.EXE [/IRQ=x] [/MEM=mm] [/IO=nnn] where [path] is the drive and pathname of the directory containing DIRECTEN.EXE. Valid options: x = Interrupt number (3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15) mm = Hex memory location (e.g. C0, C8, D0, D8) nnn = IO range (300, 320, 340, 360) 3.2.3 Using DIRECTEN.EXE from the DOS Prompt The direct enabler DOS command line has the format: DIRECTEN [/IRQ=x] [/MEM=mm] [/IO=nnn] [/SKT=z] [/O] [/?] Valid options: x = Interrupt number (3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15) mm = Hex memory location (e.g. C0, C8, D0, D8) nnn = IO range (300, 320, 340, 360) z = Socket (0 to 7). /O (overwrites current socket settings). /? Displays this screen. Note: if the /SKT parameter is omitted, DIRECTEN.EXE will automatically detect the socket where the card is inserted. 3.2.4 Cautions A. If you add the "DEVICE=[path]\DIRECTEN.EXE ...." line after any memory management software, you should tell the memory manager to exclude the memory area set by /MEM=mm parameter. Consult the following table to determine what memory address ranges to exclude: Setting Range /MEM=C0 X=C000-C7FF /MEM=C8 X=C800-CFFF /MEM=D0 X=D000-D7FF /MEM=D8 X=D800-DFFF B. If Socket Services software is installed, but Card Services is not, you should add the "DEVICE=[path]\DIRECTEN.EXE ... " line after the Socket Services software DEVICE= line. 3.3 Installing the Enabling Software Manually for OS/2 3.3.1 Overview of the Direct Enabler --- DIRECTEN.OS2 If you do not have card and socket service software installed, you should install the direct enabler to enable your PCMCIA Ethernet Card. The direct enabler DIRECTEN.OS2 program contained on this disk is used as a device driver used in your computer's CONFIG.SYS file. This version will directly configure the PCMCIA Ethernet Card for the following PCMCIA controllers: Intel 82365SL (and compatibles) Vadem VG-365/465 Cirrus Logic Databook TCIC Sharp PHIC IBM ThinkPad Toshiba 3300 Configuration is also possible via Socket Services versions 1.xx and 2.xx. 3.3.2 Using DIRECTEN.OS2 in CONFIG.SYS You can create or modify your system's CONFIG.SYS using a text editor. The direct enabler CONFIG.SYS command line has the format: DEVICE=[path]\DIRECTEN.EXE [/IRQ x] [/MEM mm] [/IO nnn] [/SKT z] where [path] is the drive and pathname of the directory containing DIRECTEN.OS2. Valid options: x = Interrupt number (3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15) mm = Hex memory location (e.g. C0, C8, D0, D8) nnn = IO range (300, 320, 340, 360) z = Socket (0 to 7). Note: if the /SKT parameter is omitted, DIRECTEN.OS2 will automatically detect the socket where the card is inserted. 3.4 Installing the Client Driver Manually Under Card and Socket Services 3.4.1 Overview of the Client Driver --- CSDRIVER.EXE If Card and Socket Services software is installed in your system, you should install the included client driver to enable your PCMCIA Ethernet Card. The CSIDRIVER.EXE client driver program contained on this disk can be used either as a device driver called from your computer's CONFIG.SYS file, or as an executable program run from the DOS prompt. 3.4.2 Using CSDRIVER.EXE in CONFIG.SYS You can create or modify your system's CONFIG.SYS file with a text editor. The client driver CONFIG.SYS command line has the format: DEVICE=[path]\CSDRIVER.EXE [/IRQ=x] [/IO=nnn] Valid options: x = Interrupt number (3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15). nnn = IO range (300, 320, 340, 360). Where [path] is the drive and pathname of the directory containing DIRECTEN.EXE. 3.4.3 Usage of DIRECTEN.EXE from the DOS Prompt The client driver DOS command line has the format: CSDRIVER [/IRQ=x] [/IO=nnn] [/?] Valid options: x = Interrupt number (3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 15). nnn = IO range (300, 320, 340, 360). /? Displays usage information 3.4.4 Caution You should add the client driver utility CONFIG.SYS line after the lines for card and socket services utilities. 4.0 Manually Installing and Configuring the Network Drivers You can find additional information about network device drivers in the README.TXT files located in each of the respective subdirectories. 5.0 Diagnostic --- DIAG.EXE DIAG.EXE will run the following test to make sure the hardware components of your PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter are functional: I/O Port Assignment NIC Register Access On-board RAM Buffer Test Lookback through ENC Lookback through ENA Lookback to UTP 6.0 Installing Client Driver under SystemSoft's CardSoft SystemSoft's CardSoft provides Socket Service, card Service and Card Identification Client drivers. CardSoft supports Intel 82365SL PCIC and Databook TCIC-2/N and other PCMCIA controllers. Each of these PCMCIA controllers requires a different Socket Service driver program. The client device driver, CARDID.EXE, detects the insertion and removal of Etehrnet adapter, automatically determines the Ethernet adapter as a Ethernet adapter upon insertion, and configures the card and slot. To use the both functions of Ethernet adapter with the CardSoft software requires the PCMCIAET.CLB file to be used by the CARDID client. Follow these steps: 1) Copy across the PCMCIAET.CLB file: Copy (FROM) A:\ENABLER\pcmciaet.clb (TO) C:\CARDSOFT\. 2) Edit the CARDID.INI file and add the library PCMCIAET.CLB: edit C:\CARDSOFT\cardid.ini Find the section which starts "[Libraries]", and add the line CardLib=PCMCIAET.CLB before any other "CardLib=" lines. When the card is inserted it will beep. Use CARDINFO.EXE /V to check the Ethernet adapter has been configured corretly as: LAN: IO Base=300, IRQ=11 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Technical Support =================== If you have any questions about installing or using the adapter drivers, check the README.TXT in the directory corresponding to your installed driver.Download Driver Pack
