Command Line Options

To configure a 232PCC2 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:

Ssocket specifies which PCMCIA socket the 232PCC2 must be inserted into for this configuration argument to be used. socket must be in the range 0 - 15. This option is always required.

Baddress

specifies a block mode base I/O adddress of the

 

232PCC2 in hexadecimal and must reside on an even

 

16-byte (10H) boundary. Specify only one of the

 

following three options: Baddress, Dmode, or ‘R’. Use

 

of one of these options is always required.

Dmode

specifies a COM mode base I/O address configuration

 

for the 232PCC2. The ‘D1’ option configures the

 

232PCC2 at COM1/COM3 (3F8/3E8), and the ‘D2’

 

option configures the 232PCC2 at COM2/COM4

 

(2F8/2E8). Specify only one of the following three

 

options: Baddress, Dmode, ‘R’. Use of one of these

 

options is always required.

Iirq

specifies the interrupt level (IRQ) of the 232PCC2 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.

Waddress

specifies the base address of the memory window

 

required to configure the 232PCC2. Set address = D0

 

for a memory window at segment D000, address = D8

 

for a memory window at segment D800, etc. Valid

 

settings for address are C8, CC, D0, D4, D8, and DC.

 

If this option is omitted, a memory window at segment

 

D000 will be used.

Uinstructs the Enabler to disable the 232PCC2's interrupt status register and enable the Scratchpad registers of the individual UARTs. This option is only required in very rare cases where an application program requires access to the UART's Scratchpad register. If this option is omitted, the 232PCC2's interrupt status register is enabled and the UARTs'
