IBM Turbo 16/4 Token-Ring PC Card 2, User Manual

Page: 106 / 123

Default: 0
Range: 0-255
The number of adapter link staaaations that can be open at one time. This
parameter is not used in the ODI environment and should not be used
unless an application specifically requires it.
TBZ
Default: (ring speed, mode, adapter dependent)
Range: 96-17960
The transmit buffer size, expressed in bytes. The value must be a multiple
of 8 and must not exceed 4464 in a 4–Mbps environment, or 17960 in a
16–Mbps environment. This value is the size of a transmit frame in
non-fast-path transmit mode and the maximum frame size in fast-path
receive mode. Generally, this value is set automatically by the driver as the
minimum of the LSL, hardware, and this value. In normal operation this
parameter can be ignored.
PCMCIA_INT
Default: none
Range: 2-F in hexadecimal (Version 3.32 and higher)
The interrupt assigned to a PCMCIA Token-Ring adapter. Since PCMCIA
adapters are handled differently from other bus types, this parameter also
indicates to the driver that a PCMCIA adapter is being initialized. On a
point-enabled card, the only way the driver can determine the interrupt
vector that the card is using is to get it from the command line. This
parameter is required on PCMCIA cards that are point-enabled.
MEM0
Default: CC000
Range: 0-100000h in hexadecimal (Version 3.21 and higher)
This parameter indicates the shared-RAM base address to the driver since
in some cases the driver cannot determine the shared-RAM base address
without getting it from the command line. This parameter is required on
point-enabled PCMCIA cards, especially if more than one is in the system.
The value given must be on the proper boundary depending on
shared-RAM size. See the table below.
Shared-RAM Size Address must be a multiple of

PORT
Default A20h
Range: A20 or A24 in non-enhanced mode, 200-0FFFCH in enhanced mode.
The base address of the I/O port the adapter uses. The adapter requires 4
contiguous I/O ports.
NIC_UAA
Default: None
Range: hexadecimal string 1-FFFFFFFFFFFFh (Version 3.21)
This parameter selects the adapter to initialize by its universally
administered address (UAA), which is in read-only storage on the card.
