2.1 DSP-100 Client Driver for DOS

In order to use the DSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and
Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the
DSP-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 DSP-100 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 Inc.

2.1.1 Client Driver Installation

The following procedure is used to install the DSP-100 Client Driver:

1. Copy the file DSP100CL.SYS from the DSP-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\DSP100CL.SYS options

where options are the

DSP-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 DSP-100 into one of the system's PCMCIA slots.

NOTE: Since the DSP-100 Client Driver supports "Hot Swapping", it is not
necessary to have the DSP-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.
