Appendix C: IRQs and Conflicts
49
Examples:
1.
To configure the ISDN card to COM 4 with interrupt 10 and to
have PORTWIZ edit your autoexec.bat and system.ini files for
you, type:
PORTWIZ 2e8 10 /w
and press
Enter
. The /w activates the Wizard mode, which
handles the file changes automatically.
2.
To configure the ISDN card the same way but not edit your
autoexe.bat and sysem.ini files, type:
PORTWIZ 2e8 10
and press
Enter
. If this combination works, then put this line in
your autoexec.bat file and remember to edit the [386Enh]
section of your system.ini file as well. Add the lines:
COM3Base=2e8h
COM3Irq=10
You do not need to reboot in order to start using your ISDN card
immediately in either DOS or Windows.
3.
If you are unsure of which IRQ to use, you can instruct
PORTWIZ to try a series of IRQs in sequence. Use only IRQs
12, 11, 10, 7, 5, 4 and 3 in that order. You may specify any or
all of them in this example. You also may use the /w switch to
activate the Wizard mode.
To set the ISDN card to COM 2 and test IRQs 12, 11, 7, and 5
in the Wizard mode, type:
PORTWIZ 2f8 12 11 7 5 /w
and press
Enter
. Note there are no commas, but the spaces are
required.
4.
If you type:
PORTWIZ
and press
Enter
without typing any arguments, PORTWIZ
displays a list of instructions on the screen.
