2.7 Command Line Options
To configure a QSP-100 in the system, the Enabler requires one command line argument from
the user to determine the configuration of the card. This argument must be enclosed in parenthe-
sis and within the argument, any or all of the following parameters may be specified using a
comma (no spaces) to separate each parameter:
S
socket
specifies which PCMCIA socket the QSP-100 must be inserted into for this configu-
ration argument to be used.
socket
must be in the range 0 - 15. This option is always
required.
B
address
specifies the base I/O address of the QSP-100 in hexadecimal and must reside on an
even 32-byte (20H) boundary. This option is required if the 'R' option is not used.
I
irq
specifies the interrupt level (IRQ) of the QSP-100 in decimal.
irq
must be one of the
following values: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, or 0 if no IRQ is desired. This
option is required if the 'R' option is not used.
W
address
specifies the base address of the memory window required to configure the QSP-100.
Set
address
= D0 for a memory window at segment D000,
address
= D8 for a
memory window at segment D800, etc. Valid settings for
address
are C8, CC, D0,
D4, D8, and DC. If this option is omitted, a memory window at segment D000 will
be used.
U
instructs the Enabler to disable the QSP-100's interrupt status register and enable the
Scratchpad registers of the individual UARTs. This option is only required in very
rare cases where an application program requires access to the UART's Scratchpad
register. If this option is omitted, the QSP-100's interrupt status register is enabled
and the UARTs' Scratchpad registers are disabled.
E
instructs the Enabler to update the BIOS equipment list with the addresses assigned
to the QSP-100. This option is only required in very rare cases where an application
program checks the BIOS equipment list to determine the address of a COM port. If
this option is omitted, the BIOS equipment list is not updated.
