The table lists the options available to the Enabler:
Option
Description
Valid Values
Required
/Ssocket
Where socket specifies the PC-Card
socket to configure (Dec)
0-7 (default = 0)
No
/Rsocket
Where socket specifies the PC-Card
socket to release (Dec)
0-7 (default=0)
No
/Badd
Where addr specifies base I/O address of
the Daq PC-Card A/D Card (Hex)
100H-3F8H
(8-byteboundary)
Yes
/Iirq
Where irq specifies interrupt level (IRQ) of
the Daq PC-Card A/D Card (Dec)
3,4,5,7,9,10, 11, 12, 14, 15
(0-No IRQ)
Yes
Note: The /B and the /I parameters must be present in the command line. If these parameters are
not present, the Enabler cannot properly configure the Daq PC-Card.
The Enabler (CDQ_EN.EXE) will process the command line parameters from left-to-right. When using
this command, remember that the /B (Base Address) and /I (IRQ) must always be specified. However,
when releasing the Daq PC-Card resource /R, they are not required.
Example 1: CDQ_EN /B300 /I5
This example will configure the Daq PC-Card located in Socket 0 with a Base Address of 300H and
Interrupt Level (IRQ) of 5. The Daq PC-Card must be in Socket 0 when this command is performed.
Example 2: CDQ_EN /R1
This example will release the Daq PC-Card located in Socket 1. The resources are now available to other
devices. It is not necessary to specify the Base Address or the Interrupt Level. The Daq PC-Card must be
in Socket 1 when this command is performed
Example 3: CDQ_EN /B300 /I5
CDQ_EN /S1 /B330 /I3
This example will configure the Daq PC-Card located in Socket 0 with a Base Address of 300H and
Interrupt Level (IRQ) of 5. It will also configure a Daq PC-Card in Socket 1 with a Base Address of 330H
and Interrupt Level (IRQ) of 3. There must be Daq PC-Card in Socket 0 and in Socket 1 when these
commands are performed.
