Initial Network test
This test verifies that the network cable is connected and
the adaptor can transmit and receive data.
The test requires two computers. One computer,
configured as the Master, generates and sends test
messages. The other computer, configured as the Slave,
received messages and transmits them back to the master.
Results can be viewed on both the Master and Slave
computers. A screen menu provides you with the
instructions needed to conduct the test.
Note: Run the card initialization and Test before running
the Advanced Network Test to ensure the adaptor's basic
functions are working properly.
Software configuration for PCM-3664
The PCM-3664 module is supplied with a software utility
disk. This disk contains files necessary for setting up the
ethernet controller. Directories and files on the disk are as
follows:
README.txt
NET(DIR)
1. RSET8019.EXE
2. PG8019.EXE
3. 8019AS.CFG
ETHERNET DRIVERS
1. RSET8019.EXE
This program enables you to view the current Ethernet
configuration, reconfigure the ethernet interface (medium
type, etc.) and execute useful diagnostic functions.
2. PG8019.EXE
The PCM-3664 is initially set up at the factory using this
program. When you receive your card, use RSET8019.EXE
to configure it for the working environment. If by chance the
EPROM becomes corrupted, the PG8019.EXE program
allows you to configure the card.
3. 8019AS.CFG
When you run PG8019.EXE, it will read the configuration
parameters stored in this file.
Ethernet Interface configuration
The PCM-3664 onboard ethernet interface supports all
major network operating systems. I/O address and
interrupts are easily configured via the RSET8019.EXE
program included on the utility disk.
The RSET8019.EXE program provides two ways to
configure the Ethernet interface. Configuration can be done
automatically when you choose PNP (Plug and Play). When
you choose jumperless configuration, the following IRQ and
I/O address setttings are available.
