Configuring the Card
After installation of the driver software and reboot of the HP-UX system
(handled automatically by swinstall), the SICL iosetup command must be
executed to configure the TAMS card as a SICL instrument card. See the
man page on iosetup (1M).
The t60488 driver is implemented as a custom Tulip driver. Therefore, the
system does NOT need to be rebooted after changing the configuration
using iosetup. However, the SICL iclear function should be used after
making changes to ensure that the configuration changes have taken
effect. See the man page on iclear (1).
The following information must be supplied by the user during the iosetup
process:
1. Logical Unit: the user must supply a logical unit number for the
TAMS card that is distinct from all other logical unit numbers
currently configured under SICL.
2. Symbolic Name: the user must supply a symbolic name for the TAMS
card that is distinct from all other symbolic names currently configured
under SICL.
3. Driver Name: the name “t60488” must be used.
4. Location: the user must specify the slot number on the PCI bus slot
used for the TAMS card. The first slot is numbered “1”.
5. Address: the user must specify the HPIB bus address that the TAMS
card is to use on the HPIB bus. This value must not be the same as
any other device connected to the HPIB cable. It may be the same as
other HPIB interface cards in the computer, so long as those other
cards are not attached to the card via the HPIB cables.
