IBM 16/4 Token-Ring Network Card User Manual


 
LA10008 Unable to register interrupt level xx for this adapter.
Explanation: The hardware interrupt level assigned to this adapter was not able to be registered (hooked)bythe
device driver.
User Action: Check the configuration of your computer, looking for other devices that are assigned the same
interrupt level as this adapter. Try removing the conflicting device from the machine and restarting the computer to see
if the problem is resolved. If so, determine whether the conflicting device can be left out of the machine, or whether
the machine can be reconfigured to resolve the conflict. Note that in most PCI machines, the PCI BIOS assigns
certain system resources to the devices found in the computer, including the interrupt level.
LA10010 A hardware failure occurred while attempting to open the adapter.
Explanation: A hardware error was detected when opening the adapter for network operation.
User Action: Run the diagnostics program to isolate the problem, and contact your support personnel. If no problem
was identified by the diagnostics, check that the cable is attached securely to both the adapter and the network
interface (wall plate). Switch the computer OFF and then ON again to restart the machine. If the problem persists,
contact your support personnel.
LA10011 A possible lobe wire failure was detected while attempting to insert into the network.
Explanation: The adapter is not correctly connected to the token-ring network.
User Action: Check that the cable is securely attached to both the adapter and to the token-ring network. You might
need to contact your local network administrator to ensure that the cabling in the building is intact and that the network
concentrator to which you are attached is operational. If the error persists, try using a different cable.
LA10012 A signal loss condition was detected while attempting to insert into the network.
Explanation: The token-ring network is not functioning correctly.
User Action: Contact your local network administrator to determine the status of your network, or try connecting
again at a later time.
LA10013 The lobe wire connected to the adapter is not attached to the network.
Explanation: The adapter is not correctly connected to the token-ring network.
User Action: Check that the cable is securely attached to both the adapter and to the token-ring network. You might
need to contact your local administrator to ensure that the cabling in the building is intact and that the network
concentrator to which you are attached is operational. If the error persists, try using a different cable.
LA10014 The configured data rate for the adapter does not match that of the network.
Explanation: The operational speed of the token-ring network does not match the configured speed of the adapter.
User Action: Change the setting of the DataRate configuration parameter to match the speed of the network to
which the adapter is attached. Your local network administrator should be able to tell you which speed to use.
Setting the DataRate parameter value to Auto will allow the adapter to automatically determine the correct speed
setting to use when connecting to the network, provided that this is not the only adapter active on the Token Ring.
This message is relevant for 4-Mbps or 16-Mbps operation only.
Consult the adapter installation instructions for additional information on setting the DataRate parameter.
LA10015 An adapter timeout occurred while attempting to insert into the network.
Explanation: The token-ring network is not functioning correctly.
User Action: Contact your local network administrator to determine the status of your network, or try connecting
again at a later time.
