[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. You should installed

the Socket and Card service in your Notebook before executing the

client driver.If you do not have the Socket or card service program,

please call the Notebook vendor.The client driver will keep resident for

handle card inseration and removal events. This feature can prevent

system crash when remove the card from socket.

To load the client driver, type

CARDGO [/INT=x][/PORT=xxx][/MEM=xxxx][/U][/?]

in DOS command line, or

DEVICE=[PATHNAME]CARDGO.EXE [/INT=x][/PORT=xxx][/MEM=xxxx][/U][/?]

in config.sys file.

Page 1

MPC-10 README

where:

[/INT=x] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your

card will be indicated.

The valid IRQs are 2,3,4,5,6,10,11,12,15.

[/PORT=xxx] This specifies the I/O address. The valid ports are 240,

280,300,320,340,360.

[/MEM=xxxx] This specifies the memory window address. The valid

MEMs are D000, D400, D800, DC00.

[/U] This specifies the client driver will free the resident

program when the card is remove from socket.

[/?] This specifies to indicate the program to display all

the possible syntax only.

The default syntax is:

CARDGO /INT=5 /PORT=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.

Socket : 0 (for example)

IRQ Number : 05 (for example)

I/O PORT Base : 0300H (for example)

Memory Address: D400H (for example)

Node ID : 00 A0 0C 80 00 02 (for example)

[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. MPC-10 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

Page 4

MPC-10 README

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:

[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

Page 5

MPC-10 README

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.
