Chapter 3—Software/Driver Installation
The following describes the format used in naming ISI ports:
Default device name and format: ttyl
ttyl basename
This prefix is applied to all ISI ports on all boards. Base names contain 1–4
characters.
b board number
Values of 1 through 4, depending on the number of ISIs installed.
x port letter
Values of A–H for ISI ports. (SCO UNIX values A-H indicate modem ports.)
Device base name selected: _________________
7. After you select a device base name, you are prompted for a printer base name. This
prefix identifies each port that supports a terminal with a printer attached to its
auxiliary port (for transparent printing). Select a unique base name or accept the
default of prnl (printer parameters are outlined in the Multi_Setup Utility section in
this guide).
Printer base name selected: _________________
8. The Multi_View utility initializes the multiple-page capability of terminals with multiple
pages of memory. You are asked how many pseudo devices (the total number of
pseudo devices you want to make available to the Multi_View utility) to create. This is
the total number of devices available to all Multi-Tech’s terminals. You can have a
maximum of 256 pseudo devices in your system.

type Y and the installation process continues.
If there is an error in any of the values displayed, type N and the first screen appears.
You must then re-enter the information for each card.
When you accept the confirmation list (by typing Y), a series of messages displays
while the driver is being installed and the kernel rebuilt. When the display finishes,
press ENTER to continue. When Installation complete displays, press ENTER .
10. Select Host and press ENTER. Remove the diskette from floppy drive.
11. Select Exit and press ENTER.
