    2. DOS / Windows 3.x Installation Two configuration software programs are provided with the QSP-100: a Client Driver, QSP100CL.SYS, and a card Enabler, QSP100EN.EXE. Both of these programs are executed from DOS (before entering Windows) and allow operation of the QSP-100 in both the DOS and Windows 3.x environments. For optimal operation, however, [...]

    2.1 QSP-100 Client Driver for DOS In order to use the QSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the QSP-100 but is available from Quatech. IMPORTANT: Some versions of Card and Socket Services dated before 1993 do not support general purpose I/O[...]

    6. Insert the QSP-100 into one of the system's PCMCIA slots. NOTE: Since the QSP-100 Client Driver supports "Hot Swapping", it is not necessary to have the QSP-100 installed when booting the system. By inserting the card before booting, however, the Client Driver will report the adapter configuration during the boot process thereby v[...]

    1.1.1.3Example 3 DEVICE = C:QSP-100QSP100CL.SYS (s0,b300,i5) In example 3, a single command line argument is provided. The Client Driver will attempt to configure a QSP-100 inserted into socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. If address 300H or IRQ 5 is unavailable, the QSP-100 will not be configured. In addition, if a QSP-100 is inserte[...]

    2.5 Common Problems Generic Client Drivers: Many Card and Socket Services packages include a generic client driver (or SuperClient) which configures standard I/O devices. If one of these generic client drivers is installed, it may config - ure the QSP-100 causing the QSP-100 client driver to fail installation. In these cases, the user should do one[...]

    Before removing a QSP-100 from its PCMCIA socket, the Enabler should be executed to free the system resources allocated when the card was installed. For this operation the Enabler provides on additional command line option: R instructs the Client Driver to release the resources previously allocated to the QSP-100. When the 'R' option is u[...]

    1.1.1.4Example 4 QSP100EN.EXE (s0,b300,i3,wd8) In example 4, the Enabler will configure the QSP-100 in socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 3 using a configuration memory window at segment D800. The QSP-100's interrupt status register will be enabled and the BIOS equipment list will not be updated. 1 .1.1.5Example 5 QSP100EN.EXE (s0,b3[...]

    2.8 Common Problems Memory Range Exclusion: The Enabler requires a region of high DOS memory when configuring a QSP-100. This region is 1000H bytes (4KB) long and by default begins at address D0000H (the default address may be changed using the "W" option). If a memory manager such as EMM386, QEMM, or 386Max is installed on the system, th[...]

    3. OS/2 Installation In order to use the QSP-100 Client Driver for OS/2, the system must be configured as follows: 1. The system must be running OS/2 2.1 or later. 2. OS/2 PCMCIA Card and Socket Services support must be installed. If PCMCIA support was not selected when OS/2 was installed, it can be added using the Selective Install facility in the[...]

    3.1 Command Line Options The QSP-100 Client Driver for OS/2 supports two methods of configuration: using "system assigned" resources and using "user assigned" resources. Both options provide full PCMCIA compliance and functionality (including "Hot-swapping") but each has some advantages and disadvantages as discussed i[...]

    3.3 Configuring With "User Assigned" Resources As mentioned in the previous section, allowing the OS/2 Plug-and-Play system to assign the hardware resources to the QSP-100 is ideal for OS/2 programs but can be a problem if DOS and/or Windows applications will be accessing the serial ports. This is because most DOS appli - cations write di[...]

    In example 2, the Client Driver will attempt to configure the QSP-100 as COM3 through COM6 using I/O address 300-31F hex and IRQ 4. If COM3, 4, 5, or 6 already exists, or if the I/O address or IRQ resources are already in use, the Client Driver will attempt to configure the QSP-100 as COM7 through COM10 using I/O address 120-13F hex and IRQ 15. If [...]

    3.5 Monitoring The Status Of PCMCIA Cards OS/2 Warp provides a utility called "Plug and Play for PCMCIA" that can be used to monitor the status of each PCMCIA socket. In OS/2 2.1, this utility is called "Configuration Manager". When a QSP-100 is inserted, the Card Type for the appropriate socket will display "Multi- Functio[...]

    3.6 Common Problems Invalid I/O Address When Using OS/2 2.1: PCMCIA Card Services for OS/2 2.1 sometimes fails to supply a valid I/O address when using "system assigned" resources. Use the "Configuration Manager" program to examine the I/O address range assigned to the QSP-100. If this range does not begin on an even 32 byte (20[...]
