Page 22 - Setting Up a New Configuration

Setting Up a New Configuration If your computer complies with PCI BIOS standards, the systemwill automatically allocate the necessary I/O, IRQ and boot ROMaddress resources to the card. Although the SETUP programwill not allow you to change the resources which are allocatedby the PCI BIOS, it will a...

Page 23 - Media Type; Boot ROM Size

Media Type The transceiver setting should agree with the network cablingtype. The program provides two choices: • Auto detection • 10BASE5 (AUI) With the first choice, the card automatically detects the connec-tor in use — either RJ-45 or BNC. The second choice enablesthe AUI connector. Full-Duplex ...

Page 24 - Running the Diagnostics; EEPROM Test; Testing the Card

Running the Diagnostics To test the card's components and installation, the SETUP pro-gram runs three different tests on the card and correspondingcabling system as listed below: • EEPROM Test • Diagnostics on Board • Diagnostics on Network Note: Run the diagnostics before the network driver is load...

Page 25 - Testing the Network Connection

This test actually performs five separate tests: • Configuration Test — checks the initial status of the Ethernet controller • I/O Registers Test — checks I/O accessibility • Internal Loop Back Test — checks the card's controller • External Loop Back Test — checks the network link • RAM Test — check...
