Section One - Introduction

Maxtech network adapters are high performance, Industry Standard Achitecture (ISA) Ethernet net- work adapters designed for Plug and Play (PnP) systems. The adapters are NE-2000 compatible and include a 16KB RAM buffer for improved net- work transmission and reception.

Plug and Play is a set of specifications that define the ability for the computer hardware or operating system to automatically configure all devices that are installed, relieving the user of the need to determine which addresses and interrupts to use for each device.

For non-PNP (legacy) systems, a setup program (SETUP.EXE) is provided to configure the cards for use in any IBM PC/XT/AT or fully-compatible com- puter.

The minimum hardware requirement is an IBM PC/ XT or fully-compatible PC with 512K RAM running DOS 6.2 or higher. The network operating system you use may have higher requirements.
