version of Card and Socket Services must be installed on the system or the SSP-200/300 Enabler program must be used to configure the adapter. If the Client Driver reports the desired adapter configuration, the installation process is complete and the SSP-200/300 may be removed and/ or inserted from the system as desired. On each insertion into the PCMCIA socket, the SSP-200/300 will be automatically reconfigured according to the command line options.

2.1.2 Command Line Options

The SSP-200/300 Client Driver accepts up to eight command line arguments from the user to determine the configuration of theSSP-200/300. If any arguments are provided, the Client Driver will attempt to configure any SSP-200/300s with the options specified in the order they are entered on the command line. Each argument must be enclosed in parenthesis and must be separated from other arguments by a space on the command line. Within each argument, any or all of the following parameters may be specified using a comma (no spaces) to separate each parameter:

Baddress

specifies a the base I/O address of the SSP-200/300in hexadecimal.

This

 

address must reside on an even 8-byte boundary. If this option is omitted, a

 

base address will be assigned by Card and Socket Services.

 

Iirq

specifies the interrupt level (IRQ) of the SSP-200/300in 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. If this option is omitted, an interrupt level will be assigned by Card

 

and Socket Services.

 

 

Ssocket

specifies which PCMCIA socket the SSP-200/300must be inserted into for

 

this configuration argument to be used. socket must be in the range 0 - 15. If

 

this option is omitted, the configuration argument will apply to SSP-200/300

 

s inserted into any socket.

 

 

Odriver

specifies RS-422/485 output driver enable option for the SSP-200/300 port.

 

The SSP-200/300’s port may be configured for either full duplex or half

 

duplex operation with this option. If this option is omitted, the default

 

setting is the RS-422/485 port is configured for full duplex operation with

 

the RS-422/485 output drivers always enabled.

In half duplex mode,

the

 

RS-422/485 transmitter may be enabled and disabled via the RTS (request to

 

send) or DTR (data terminal ready) signals.

Both RTS and DTR

are

controlled through the Modem Control Register of the 16750. See the Hardware Information section for more information.
