Installation
2-10
Issue 1 January 1997
Make a note of the IRQs used for the MERLIN LEGEND Reporter (typically COM
ports 1 and 2). Some potential conflicts include: COM ports 3 and 4 may share IRQs
with COM ports 1 and 2, or a serial mouse may share an IRQ with COM port 1 or 2.
(typically IRQs 3 and 4) cannot be used by any other function.
Some Network Interface cards (NIC) are not detected by MSD. In many cases, an
NIC is assigned to IRQs above 5, while COM ports are often assigned IRQs 3 and 4
(that is, no conflict). However, if an NIC is present and you cannot gather call
records, it may be necessary to determine which IRQ the NIC uses.
