CS8920 Technical Reference Manual
4.2 Adapter Installation and
Configuration
The installation and configuration of the
CS8920 for most network operating
systems is accomplished by performing
the following four steps:
1. Install the CS8920 adapter
Install the adapter in an available
ISA/EISA slot and connect the
appropriate type cable.
2. Configure the adapter
Select the desired hardware settings
and store them in EEPROM using
the DOS-based Setup and
Installation utility.
3. Test the adapter’s operation
Using the Setup and Installation
utility’s diagnostic option, test the
operation of the adapter with the
chosen hardware configuration.
4. Install the appropriate device
driver
Install the device driver that provides
the interface between the CS8920
adapter and your network operating
system.
Note: The installation procedure for
installing the CS8920 with SCO UNIX
differs from the procedure discussed in
this section. Please refer to the
README.TXT file (ASCII text format)
on the “CS8900/CS8920 SCO UNIX
Driver” diskette for the correct
installation of the CS8920 under SCO
UNIX operating system.
4.2.1 Installing the CS8920 Adapter
The CS8920 adapter may be installed in
any available 16-bit ISA or EISA slot.
Be sure to connect a network cable
before running the provided Setup and
Installation Utility or loading a network
device driver.
More than one CS8920 may be installed
in the same PC, limited only by the
number of available slots in the PC,
available system resources, and the
limitations of the network operating
system you will be using. Refer to the
README.TXT file in the root directory
of the “CS8900/CS8920 Setup and
Device Driver Software” diskette for
installation considerations when
installing more than one CS8920 adapter
in the same PC.
4.2.2 Configuring the CS8920
Adapter
The provided DOS-based Setup and
Installation utility is used to configure
the CS8920 adapter card. It allows the
user to select the system resources to the
CS8920 adapter such as an interrupt
number, DMA channel, IO base address,
and memory base address. Once
selected, the specified hardware
configuration is stored in the CS8920’s
EEPROM. There are no jumpers or
switches on the adapter board used to
specify the hardware configuration.
To configure the CS8920 adapter using
the Setup and Installation utility:
