Available Resources:
One function of the Card and Socket Services software is to track which system
resources (memory addresses, I/O addresses, IRQs, etc.) are available for assignment
to inserted PCMCIA cards. Sometimes, however, the Card Services software assumes
or incorrectly determines that a particular resource is used when it is actually available.
Most Card and Socket Services generate a resource table in a file (typically in the form
of an .INI file) which the user can modify to adjust the available system resources.
Consult the Card and Socket Services documentation for availability and details of this
feature.
Multiple Configuration Attempts:
Some Card and Socket Services have a setting which aborts the configuration process
after a single configuration failure (such as a request for an unavailable resource). The
user should change this setting to allow for multiple configuration attempts. Consult
the Card and Socket Services documentation for availability and details of this feature.
Older Versions of Card and Socket Services:
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 SSP-200/300
does not configure or operate properly, an updated version of Card and Socket Services
may be required. Card and Socket Services software is available from Quatech.
2.2 SSP-200/300 Enabler for DOS
For systems that are not operating PCMCIA Card and Socket Services software, the
SSP-200/300 DOS Enabler may be used to enable and configure the adapter. This
Enabler, SSP231EN.EXE, will operate on any DOS system using an Intel 82365SL or
PCIC compatible PCMCIA host adapter including the Cirrus Logic CL-PD6710 /6720,
the VLSI VL82C146, and the Vadem VG-365 among others.
IMPORTANT:
In order to use the SSP-200/300 Enabler for DOS, the system
MUST NOT be configured with Card and Socket Services
software. If a Card and Socket Services software is installed,
the SSP-200/300 Enabler may interfere with its operation
and with the device(s) it controls.
