The DSP-100 Enabler does not support automatic configuration of adapters upon
insertion, more commonly referred to as "Hot Swapping". This means the adapter must
be installed in one of the system's PCMCIA sockets before executing DSP130EN.EXE. If
more than one adapter is installed in a system, the Enabler must be executed separately
for each adapter. Furthermore, DSP130EN.EXE should be executed to release the
resources used by the adapter before it is removed from the PCMCIA socket. Since
PCMCIA adapters do not retain their configuration after removal, any adapter that is
removed from the system must be reconfigured with the Enabler after re-inserting it
into a PCMCIA socket.
IMPORTANT:
The Enabler requires a region of high DOS memory when
configuring a DSP-100. This region is 1000H bytes (4KB) long
and by default begins at address D0000H (the default address
may be changed using the "W" option). If a memory manager
such as EMM386, QEMM, or 386Max is installed on the system,
this region of DOS memory must be excluded from the memory
manager's control. Consult the documentation provided with
the memory manager software for instructions on how to
exclude this memory region.
2.2.1 Command Line Options
To configure a DSP-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 parenthesis 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 DSP-100 must be inserted into for this
configuration argument to be used.
socket
must be in the range 0 - 15. This
option is required if the 'R' option is not used.
B
address
specifies the base I/O address of the DSP-100 in hexadecimal. This address
must reside on an even 8-byte boundary. This option is required if the 'R'
option is not used.
I
irq
specifies the interrupt level (IRQ) of the DSP-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.
