IBM 16/4 Token-Ring Network Card User Manual


 
system resources to the devices found in the computer, including the interrupt level.
IBMTRPO-xx-210:
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. See Running adapter diagnosticson page 42.
IBMTRPO-xx-211:
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.
IBMTRPO-xx-212:
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.
IBMTRPO-xx-213:
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 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.
IBMTRPO-xx-214:
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. Consult the
adapter installation instructions for additional information on setting the DataRate parameter.
This message is relevant for 4-Mbps and 16-Mbps operation only.
IBMTRPO-xx-215:
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.
IBMTRPO-xx-216:
A ring failure 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.
