Open Errors

Failure during the adapter open test might indicate that
the PC Card is not properly configured to run on the
network it is trying to open onto or that the PC Card is
not properly configured for the system. The open test
provides a return code and an open error code. If the
return code is 07, then see “Open Error Codes” in this
chapter for a more accurate description of the failure and
suggested actions. If the return code is a value other than
00 or 07, record the error and contact your network
administrator.

Open Error Codes

If the open test provides a return code of 07, there will
be a corresponding error code. The open errors are
returned in 2 bytes. The high-order byte is always 0 and
the low-order byte contains the following information:

The phase of testing in which the error was
encountered is in the high-order nibble (half-byte) of
the low-order byte.

The error condition is in the low order nibble of the
low-order byte.
