148 IBM ISDN PC Card:User’s Guide
Note: Please consult your User's guide for your laptop computer in order to
find out which COM ports are used, which ones are available, and
how to make COM ports available if this becomes necessary.
In order to configure the CAPI Port drivers click on the Port tab of the
Installation Of The ISDN CAPI Port Driver window.
In the Virtual Port section you can select any of the ISDN CAPI Ports and
choose from the drop down list any of the available COM ports. In the above
example you will be selecting COM4 for the ISDN CAPI Port.
If you have made the correct selection of the COM port under the Virtual Port
tab you now can click OK to complete the installation of the CAPI Port
Drivers.
Note: Be aware that during the installation of the CAPI Port Drivers the
selected COM port will always be assigned to the "ISDN Custom
Config" modem emulation.
If you need any other COM port assignments you must install cFos for
Windows 2000 Professional. You can download this software from
http://www.cfos.com or install the one delivered on the IBM
International ISDN PC Card Software Installation CD.
The selection of a COM port instead of the ISDNPORT does not
influence the usage of the emulated modems at all. The COM port
selection is provided for those software packages which demand
access to a COM port. The number of applications doing this is very
low. The best way to find this out is by testing the software with the
standard CAPI Port settings and then changing them if needed by
reinstalling the CAPI Port drivers.
5. Once the installation is complete you will be asked to restart your computer.
