2.1 SSP-100 Client Driver for DOS
In order to use the SSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and
Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the
SSP-100 but is available from Quatech.
IMPORTANT:
Some versions of Card and Socket Services dated before
1993 do not support general purpose I/O cards. If after
careful installation of the Client Driver the adapter does
not configure or operate properly, an updated version of
Card and Socket Services may be required.
2.1.1 Client Driver Installation
The following procedure is used to install the SSP-100 Client Driver:
1. Copy the Client Driver from the SSP-100 distribution diskette onto the
system's hard drive.
2. Using an ASCII text editor, open the system's CONFIG.SYS file located in the
root directory of the boot drive.
3. Locate the line(s) in the CONFIG.SYS file where the Card and Socket Services
software is installed.
4. AFTER the line(s) installing the Card and Socket Services software, add the
following line to the CONFIG.SYS file: DEVICE = drive:\path\
SSP100CL.SYS options where options are the SSP-100 Client Driver
command line options discussed on the following pages.
5. Save the CONFIG.SYS file and exit the text editor.
6. Insert the SSP-100 into one of the system's PCMCIA slots.
NOTE: Since the SSP-100 Client Driver supports "Hot Swapping", it is not
necessary to have the SSP-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 verifying the changes made to the
CONFIG.SYS.
7. Reboot the system and note the message displayed when the SSP-100 Client
Driver is loaded. If the Client Driver reports an "invalid command line
option", correct the entry in the CONFIG.SYS file and reboot the system
again. If the Client Driver reports "Card and Socket Services not found", a
