Configuration Settings Descriptions

This section describes each configuration setting for the 3C589D PC Card. Table 5-1 displays the possible values for each setting.

CIS Memory Address

The CIS Memory requires a 4 K segment of memory for drivers and an 8 K block when you are running diagnostics.

I/O Base Address

The I/O address space is used by the PC Card for communication between the PC Card and the PC. The PC Card uses 16 bytes of I/O space, starting at the I/O Base Address.

Make sure that no other device is using the same value. The I/O Base Address range is from 200h to 3A0h and is assigned by Card Services. If you are not using Card Services, the default is 300h.
