Interrupt Level
The IRQ item on the Hardware menu allows the selection of an interrupt request
line that will be used by the Adapter. The default value is 5. In most systems,
interrupt request levels cannot be shared.
5.9 DOS Diagnostics
The 5250 DOS diagnostics can be used in a DOS environment only.
To run the Diagnostics, make sure that the diagnostic program (DIA-EA.EXE, DIA-
PNP.EXE, DIA-PCC.EXE or DIA-PCI.EXE) is located in your working directory
(5250CARD), and at the prompt type DIA-EA, DIA-PNP, DIA-PCC, DIA-PCI.
For example:
[drive:]\5250CARD>DIA-PCI<ENTER>
NOTE
The ENB5250 program will automatically be executed when the
diagnostics are run. The board resource information from the ENB5250
program will be passed to the diagnostic program.
