- 40 -The system board comes with two LED indicators on the edge of the motherboard that indicates the network system
status. If you experience any problems with the adapter, first make sure the appropriate driver is loaded, the proper
cable is connected to the RJ-45 port and the hub complies with the adapter specification, such as 10Mbps 10Base-T or
100Mbps 100Bast-TX. Finally, recheck the LEDs.
FUDUP (Full Duplex) Indicator
When indicator is ON, it indicates Full-duplex mode: otherwise, it is OFF. The adapter supports full duplex at 10 or
100Mbps. If the switch-hub supports the N-way feature and full duplex, the system automatically runs in full duplex
mode.
Tx/Rx (Transmit/Receiver) Indicator
This indicator flashes to display that there is network activity – indicating transmission or reception data from the network.
The package includes a diskette containing the setup program. This program allows you to verify the configuration and
isolation of faults. The adapter’s I/O port address and interrupt request levels (IRQ) are set by the BIOS. Other default
settings can be changed for situations as shown below. Problem (RESET8139.exe) provides the following function:
- Displays the current configuration of the adapter
- Performs network diagnostic tests to verify the operation of the adapters basic functions, and the adapters ability to
communicate over the network with another adapter.
- Provides set up for new configuration to make a change specify settings: Remote BOOT ROM, Flow Control and
Full-Duplex mode Enable/or Disable
Full duplex operation is set automatically if the Full-duplex option is set to Disable. Please follow the prompt instructions
to set-up or change the system configuration.
Note: Before running the setup program, make sure the adapter’s driver is not loaded, otherwise unpredictable results
may arise!
The setup program can be set the on board configuration to provide diagnostic testing. It is for testing the basic function
verification, EEPROM data Access, loop back operation, and the ability to communicate over the network with another
adapter. To access this program, insert the Driver Diskette into the floppy disk
drive and then type the following at the DOS prompt:
