EN2216/2316 PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter
Adapter Test and Diagnostic Program
ACCTEST.EXE is an MS-DOS program that verifies if the basic
functions and components of a EN2216/2316 adapter work correctly.
Since ACCTEST.EXE accesses hardware directly, you should only run
this program in a native MS-DOS environment (with or without the
Card Services.) If you try to run this program in a DOS box in
the Microsoft Windows 95/98/Me/2000 or IBM OS/2 environment, the program
will not work properly.
When you run ACCTEST.EXE, no other EN2216/2316 drivers should have
been loaded. For an example, if the DOS ODI driver is already loaded,
and you start ACCTEST. ACCETST and the DOS ODI driver will interfere
with each other and the system may hang.
For maximum compatibilty, it is not recommended to run
ACCTEST when EMM386.EXE is loaded in CONFIG.SYS. However, if you do use
EMM386.EXE in CONFIG.SYS, please exclude a range of 64K bytes of memory
to be used by the PC Card. Add the following line in CONFIG.SYS.
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF
Command line options:
ACCTEST /?
Displays command line options and the supported values
for each option.
ACCTEST [/Q:x] [/I:yyy] [/W:zzzz] [/S:x]
/Q:x : The IRQ number to be used by the EN2216/2316 Adapter
x = 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 15
If not specified, ACCTEST will allocate a free IRQ.
/I:yyy : The base I/O address to be used by the EN2216/2316 Adapter
yyy = 200, 220, 300, 320, 340, 360
If not specified, ACCTEST will assign the base I/O address.
/W:zzzz : The base window address to use to test the PC Card
if not specified, the window address is assigned by ACCTEST.
/S:x : PCMCIA Slot No.
x = 0, 1...
If not specified, ACCTEST detects the slot number.
ACCTEST.EXE conducts the following tests:
. Configuration Test
Verifies if the IRQ and I/O resources can be obtained
successfully to conduct the subsequent tests.
. I/O Test
Verifies if the assigned I/O base address can be used successfully
by the PC Card. If this test fails, more than likely
it is because the I/O address is occupied by another device. In
this case please change the I/O base address by using the /I option
on the command line and execute ACCTEST.EXE again.
. RAM Test
Verifies if the RAM (Random Access Memory) component on
the PC Card is free of error.
. Ethernet Node ID Test
Verifies if the Ethernet Node ID (MAC Address) of the adapter
is in correct format.
. Internal Loopback Test
Conducts Ethernet internal loopback test.
. External Loopback Test
Conducts Ethernet external loopback test. To pass this test
you must connect the PC Card to an Ethernet hub or switch.
. Interrupt Test
Verifies if the IRQ value assigned to the adapter works correctly.
If this test fails, more than likely it is because the IRQ is
occupied by another device in the system. In this case please
change the IRQ value by using the /Q option on the command line
and execute ACCTEST.EXE again.
. Network Function Test
Broadcasts packets on the Ethernet network to verify if the
EN2216/2316 adapter can send network data correctly with the
specified IRQ and I/O address. The number of packets transmitted
is displayed in the "Tx Count" field.
You can use the F2 key to start or to stop the test.
To verify the network receive function, you can execute the
Network Function Test on a second notebook computer on the
same Ethernet network. When ACCTEST.EXE receives the network
packets broadcast by the second notebook, the number of packets
received in displayed in the "Rx Count" field on the screen.
You can use the F1 key to reset the counters. You can use the
ESC key to exit the program.
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.
