Available Resources:

One function of the Card and Socket Services software is to track which system

resources (memory addresses, I/O addresses, IRQs, etc.) are available for assignment to

inserted PCMCIA cards. Sometimes, however, the Card Services software assumes or

incorrectly determines that a particular resource is used when it is actually available.

Most Card and Socket Services generate a resource table in a file (typically in the form

of an .INI file) which the user can modify to adjust the available system resources.

Consult the Card and Socket Services documentation for availability and details of this

feature.

Multiple Configuration Attempts:

Some Card and Socket Services have a setting which aborts the configuration process

after a single configuration failure (such as a request for an unavailable resource). The

user should change this setting to allow for multiple configuration attempts. Consult

the Card and Socket Services documentation for availability and details of this feature.

Older Versions of Card and Socket Services:

Some versions of Card and Socket Services dated before 1993 do not support general

purpose I/O cards. If after careful installation of the Client Driver the DSP-100 does

not configure or operate properly, an updated version of Card and Socket Services may

be required. Card and Socket Services software is available from Quatech.

2.2 DSP-100 Enabler for DOS

For systems that are not operating PCMCIA Card and Socket Services software, the

DSP-100 DOS Enabler may be used to enable and configure the adapter. This Enabler,

SSP200EN.EXE, will operate on any DOS system using an Intel 82365SL or PCIC

compatible PCMCIA host adapter including the Cirrus Logic CL-PD6710 /6720, the

VLSI VL82C146, and the Vadem VG-365 among others.

IMPORTANT:

In order to use the DSP-100 Enabler for DOS, the system

MUST NOT be configured with Card and Socket Services

software. If a Card and Socket Services software is installed,

the DSP-100 Enabler may interfere with its operation and

with the device(s) it controls.
