Manual MPAD128.D1g
Windows NT 4.0 Installation
Windows NT 4.0 is not a Plug-and-Play operating system, so getting the card to work properly
requires a few extra steps. After physically installing the PAD128 card into the slot, run the
"Setup.exe" program included in the software package. This program will create an entry in the
Windows NT PCMCIA Registry Database, allowing Windows NT 4.0 to recognize the PAD128.
After running "Setup.exe," the system must be rebooted for the changes to take effect. The device
should then show up in the "PC Card (PCMCIA)" Control Panel where its resource assignments can
be found.
Although manual modification of the Registry should not be necessary, the steps necessary to
duplicate the actions performed by "Setup.exe" are documented here for informational purposes.
After starting Regedit, navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pcmcia\Database
Add a new subkey named "Industrial Computer Source" then add a new subkey to the "Industrial
Computer Source" key you just created named "PAD128." In the "PAD128" key, add a new string
with the name "Driver" and the value "pad128." This completes the modifications necessary for
Windows NT 4.0 to recognize the PAD128 card. The system must then be rebooted for the changes
to take effect. Please note: even though a driver name is provided here in the registry, no driver is
needed or used.
Caution
The PAD128 must be oriented with the label side up, or "side A" in PCMCIA terms. The standard
PCMCIA case is "keyed" to prevent improper insertion but may be broken off if excessive force is
used during installation.
Do Not Force the PAD128 Card into the Slot.
Install the card with the label facing "up" or towards side "A", but you should check with your
systems owners manual. When correctly oriented, the PAD128 card should seat in the slot with little
pressure. Force the PAD128 card in upside down and you will probably burn out components as well
as destroy the key slot.
Once the card is inserted, you may then run the Sample software to confirm operation of your
PAD128 card.
