Appendix A - PC Card Manual Installation and Setup
Appendix A
PC Card Manual Installation and Setup
This appendix contains procedures to manually install and setup the PC card in the computer.
Normally, once the SCT 3000 software and PC card are installed in the computer, the computer is restarted. When the computer is connected to a field device and the SCT
3000 application is started, an online connection is automatically established, (status bar message CARD OK). If an online connection cannot be made, you may need to manually install the PC card and setup the PCMCIA socket (PC card slot) of the computer.
Also see Section 8 – Troubleshooting for additional information.
Use one of these procedures in this appendix only if you are using the Smartline Option
Module as the hardware interface, and:
•
You cannot make an online connection between the computer and the field device upon start up of the SCT 3000 application.
•
The status bar message in the application window displays NO CARD. (The computer does not recognize the PC card.)
Depending on which operating system your computer is using, (Windows 95, Windows
NT or Windows 98), you should use the procedure in either Table 15 or Table 16 to manually install and setup the PC card in your computer.
PC Card installation with Windows 95 and Windows NT
