CommPlete Communications Server 33
On-Chip Primary PCI IDE
As stated above, your system includes a built-in primary IDE controller, which
operates on the PCI bus. This setup item allows you to either enable or disable the
primary controller.
Enabled Primary IDE controller used (Default).
Disabled Only one PCI device can be active at a time.
PCI Concurrancy
PCI concurrency means that more than one PCI device can be active at a time.
Enabled Multiple PCI devices can be active (Default).
Disabled Only one PCI device can be active at a time.
PCI Streaming
Data is typically moved to and from memory and between devices in discrete chunks of
limited sizes. This is because the CPU is being used in the exchange. On the PCI bus,
data can be streamed, that is, much larger chunks can be moved without the use or
intervention of the CPU.
Enabled Streaming allowed on the PCI bus (Default).
Disabled Streaming off for the PCI bus.
PCI Bursting
The PCI bus supports a mode by which large amounts of data is moved in short intense
bursts. This item allows you to turn this feature on or off.
Enabled Bursting allowed on the PCI bus (Default).
Disabled Bursting off for the PCI bus.
