2. Installation
The SMT327 requires no switch or link configuration prior to installation.
It is assumed that 3L Parallel C is already installed on the host system.
A TIM should be fitted to the TIM1 position in order to run the installation test and in general a TIM should
always be fitted to this position in order to provide an H1 clock to the PCI bridge.
NOTE
All installation directions in this document refer to the 3L support programs and environment.

NOTE
•
Insert a TIM card into TIM site 1. With the power to the host system switched off and taking anti-static
precautions, (e.g., wearing an anti-static earth strap), plug the SMT327 into the PCI slot. Ensure that
the SMT327 is located correctly.
•
Ensure that the carrier board environment variables are set up correctly for running 3L’s Parallel C TIS
loader program. (see 3L’s
C40 Technical Note 62
).
TISLINK=SMT320,INDEX:0,DEVICE:0327.
•
A new 3L TIS loader program for Windows ‘95,
TIS_WD32.EXE,
is supplied with the SMT327. This
must be copied into your 3L installation directory, usually
TIC2V0
:
copy a:\tis_wd32.exe c:\tic2v2\tis.exe
You will be requested if you wish to overwrite the original in this directory. This is required as the
present version of TIS is not a protected mode program. There is also a DOS4GW.EXE which must be
copied to this directory.
•
At the DOS prompt run the
C40worm
utility and confirm that the TIM in TIM site 1 has been detected.
To run
C40worm
type:
C40worm
The program should report back the number of processors on the SMT327. For example:
1 processor found:
root processor: TMS320C44 with 1MW of off-chip memory (4MB)
If C40worm fails to report back any information check the correct carrier board configuration has been
assigned in the environment variables, e.g. TISLINK, TISROOT, etc.
Refer to your 3L User Guide for further information on executing C40worm.
