2.1 SSP-100 Client Driver for DOS

In order to use the SSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the SSP-100 but is available from Quatech.

IMPORTANT:

Some versions of Card and Socket Services dated before 1993 do not support general purpose I/O cards. If after careful installation of the Client Driver the adapter does not configure or operate properly, an updated version of Card and Socket Services may be required.

2.1.1 Client Driver Installation

The following procedure is used to install the SSP-100 Client Driver:

1.Copy the Client Driver from the SSP-100 distribution diskette onto the system's hard drive.

2.Using an ASCII text editor, open the system's CONFIG.SYS file located in the root directory of the boot drive.

3.Locate the line(s) in the CONFIG.SYS file where the Card and Socket Services software is installed.

4.AFTER the line(s) installing the Card and Socket Services software, add the

following line to the CONFIG.SYS file:

DEVICE = drive:\path\

SSP100CL.SYS options

where options are the SSP-100 Client Driver

command line options discussed on the following pages.

5.Save the CONFIG.SYS file and exit the text editor.

6.Insert the SSP-100 into one of the system's PCMCIA slots.

NOTE: Since the SSP-100 Client Driver supports "Hot Swapping", it is not necessary to have the SSP-100 installed when booting the system. By inserting the card before booting, however, the Client Driver will report the adapter configuration during the boot process thereby verifying the changes made to the

CONFIG.SYS.

7.Reboot the system and note the message displayed when the SSP-100 Client Driver is loaded. If the Client Driver reports an "invalid command line option", correct the entry in the CONFIG.SYS file and reboot the system again. If the Client Driver reports "Card and Socket Services not found", a
