adapter is a Type II PCMCIA card, which is compatible with any Type II PCMCIA slot. If
your computer has more than one slot, you may insert the adapter in any of them. The
Token Ring software automatically determines into which slot the card is inserted.
Gently insert the card into the PCMCIA slot, pushing it until it sits firmly in place. The
card will only fit one way; care must be taken not to force it. If it does not register
smoothly, withdraw it and check that it is correctly aligned.
You may now connect the STP connection to the keyed socket on the exposed end of the
card, again do not force it.
Two types of network cable can be used: Type 1 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) or Type 3
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP). When using UTP cable, a Media Filter needs to be
attached to the STP cable.
If you are using Type 1 STP cabling, secure the STP cable to the DB-9 connector. If you
are using Type 3 UTP cable, secure the media filter to the DB-9 connector on the cable,
and then insert the RJ45 connector of the Type 3 UTP cable into the media filter.

This section presents the software installation procedures for the HyperNet Token Ring PC

are either supplied by the notebook vendor or by the operating system vendor.
Socket Services software provides a standardised interface for handling PCMCIA cards,
sockets and adapters. Socket Services uses a modest amount of memory and provides a
hardware independent method of interfacing.
