CONFIGURATION FOR BANYAN
AND THE IBM PCMCIA
16/4 TOKEN RING CARD


THE FOLLOWING IS A TESTED CONFIGURATION FOR THE IBM PCMCIA
16/4 TOKEN RING CARD IN THE AERO / ELITE. FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTIONS BELOW TO CONFIGURE THE CARD TO WORK IN THE
LISTED ENVIRONMENT.

STEP 1)

EDIT THE CONFIG.SYS AND ADD /IRQ A TO THE CS.EXE LINE IN THE
CONFIG.SYS AS SHOWN IN THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLE OF A WORKING
CONFIG.SYS.

STEP 2)

CHANGE DIRECTORY TO THE CPQDOS DIRECTORY AND USE THE PCCARD
UTILITY TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT SETTING FOR THE RESOURCES OF
THE IBM PCMCIA CARD AND SET AS FOLLOWS.

TYPE PCCARD (THIS WILL START THE CARD SOFT      CONFIGURATION
UTILITY). FROM THE CPQDOS SUB-DIRECTORY. PRESS ENTER ONE
TIME TO BYPASS THE WELCOME DIALOG BOX. THEN PRESS THE "ALT
F" KEYS TO OPEN THE FILE MENU OF CARD CONFIGURATION AND

CONFIGURATION DIALOG BOX. THEN PRESS THE "ALT N" KEYS TO
ENTER THE NETWORK CARD INFORMATION. CHANGE THE DEFAULT PORT
ADDRESS FROM 300 TO A20. THEN PRESS THE "TAB" KEY TO CHANGE
FIELDS TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT IRQ FROM 5 TO 2. THEN PRESS THE
TAB KEY AGAIN TO CHANGE FIELDS TO THE MEMORY 1 FIELD AND
CHANGE THE DEFAULT ADDRESS TO D000 THEN PRESS THE TAB KEY
AGAIN TO CHANGE THE MEMORY 2 FIELD AND CHANGE THE DEFAULT
ADDRESS TO D800. THEN PRESS THE TAB KEY AGAIN TO CHANGE TO
THE FAST TOKEN RING SPEED (16MB/S) FIELD AND SELECT THE
APPROPRIATE RING SPEED. AN X IN THE FIELD ENABLES 16MB/S AND
NO X IN THE FIELD INDICATES 4MB/S. ONCE THE CHANGES HAVE
BEEN MADE PRESS ENTER TO EXIT THE NETWORK CARD INFORMATION.
THEN PRESS THE ENTER KEY TO EXIT THE EDIT CONFIGURATION
DIALOG BOX. THEN PRESS THE "ALT F" KEYS TO OPEN THE FILE
MENU AND CHOOSE THE SAVE OPTION. ONCE SAVED PRESS THE "ALT
F" KEYS TO REOPEN THE FILE MENU AND CHOOSE EXIT TO EXIT THE
UTILITY COMPLETELY.





STEP 3)

TYPE PCCARD /ALL FROM THE CPQDOS SUB-DIRECTORY. THIS WILL
RE-LAUNCH THE CARDSOFT CONFIGURATION UTILITY IN AN ALTERNATE
MANNER. FROM THE CONFIGURATION UTILITY MAIN WINDOW PRESS THE
"ALT U" KEYS. THIS WILL OPEN THE UTILITY WINDOW. FROM THIS
WINDOW CHOOSE THE BINARY ADAPTION OPTION. THIS WILL THEN
OPEN THE BINARY ADAPTION DIALOG BOX. FROM THIS WINDOW PRESS
THE "ALT O" KEYS. THIS WILL THEN OPEN THE OPEN DIALOG BOX
WITH A LIST OF FILES. USING THE ARROW KEYS MOVE DOWN THE
LIST OF FILES AND HIGHLIGHT THE CS.EXE FILE. ONCE THE
FILENAME IS HIGHLIGHTED PRESS ENTER KEY TO OPEN THE CS.EXE
FILE. THIS WILL ALSO OPEN THE CS PARAMETER LIST DIALOG BOX.
ONCE IN THE PARAMETER LIST DIALOG BOX, USE THE ARROW KEYS TO
MOVE DOWN THE LIST OF AVAILABLE PARAMETERS AND HIGHLIGHT THE
CARD-CHANGE-STATUS IRQ. ONCE HIGHLIGHTED PRESS THE "ALT E"
KEYS TO OPEN THE EDIT PARAMETER DIALOG BOX. THEN CHANGE THE
DEFAULT TO 10. ONCE CHANGED, THEN PRESS ENTER TO GO BACK TO
THE CS PARAMETER LIST DIALOG BOX. THEN PRESS ENTER AGAIN TO
GET BACK TO THE BINARY ADAPTION DIALOG BOX. FROM THIS DIALOG
BOX PRES THE "ALT S" KEYS TO SAVE THE CHANGES. THEN PRESS
THE "ESC" KEY TO EXIT THE BINARY ADAPTION DIALOG BOX AND
RETURN TO THE MAIN WINDOW OF CARDSOFT CONFIGURATION UTILITY.
FROM THE MAIN WINDOW PRESS THE "ALT F" KEYS TO OPEN THE FILE
MENU AND CHOOSE EXIT TO EXIT THE CONFIGURATION UTILITY.

AT THIS POINT REBOOT THE MACHINE TO REFLECT THE NEW
CONFIGURATION.

*** NOTE ***

ONCE THE CONFIGURATION CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE YOU WILL NEED
TO EDIT YOUR CONFIGURATION FILES (i.e.. PROTOCOL.INI,
IBMTOCS.NIF, ETC...) TO MATCH THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLES. ALSO
KEEP IN MIND THAT CHANGES MADE NEED TO BE MADE TO REFLECT OR
SUPPORT YOUR PARTICULAR NETWORK ENVIRONMENT.

LISTED BELOW ARE THE EXAMPLES OF A WORKING CONFIGURATION.
