-
- In order to support the Intelligent DigiBoard Multiport Boards, 4
- new fields had to be added to a Program's Configuration file.
-
- This means that ALL programs written with the GAPCDR Library will
- use the first 8 lines in the Program's Configuration file.
-
- You will need to advise your existing End Users that they need
- to change the configuration file for your program(s) and add the
- the 4 new lines.
-
- Here is a complete description of the Door Configuration File
- as it exists on this date:
-
- DOOR.CNF
- ---------------------------------------------
- C:\GAP Line 1
- The Crow's Nest BBS Line 2
- 4 Line 3
- 03F8 Line 4
- STANDARD Line 5
- D000 Line 6
- 320 Line 7
- 4 Line 8
- ---------------------------------------------
-
- Explanation of the above parameters
-
- Line 1 - Full Path to the BBS Default Directory (where DOOR.SYS is)
- Line 2 - Name of the BBS
- Line 3 - IRQ for this Port. If running COM ports other than 1 or 2
- this must be the IRQ that will be used for that Port. If
- running on COM 1 or COM 2 or using a DigiBoard, this can
- be set to 0.
- Line 4 - Base Address for this Port (In Hex). If running ports other
- than 1 or 2 this must be the Base Address that will be used
- for that Port. If running on COM 1 or COM 2 or using a
- DigiBoard, this can be set to 0.
- Line 5 - The COM Port Interface to use:
- STANDARD = Regular Communications Port Interface. This
- is what you would normally use.
- DIGIBOARD = Direct DigiBoard Programming Interface. Must
- be used in conjunction with a program called
- RESETDIG.EXE. If you don't have this program
- but have a DigiBoard, then use the following
- option.
- INT14/EBIOS = Indirect DigiBoard Support via a Device Driver.
- All Communications to the DigiBoard (or any
- board that supports INT14/EBIOS) are performed
- via a Software Interrupt that the Device Driver
- handles.
- Line 6 - If using a DigiBoard, this is the Memory Window, or the
- address the card uses as a communications area between
- the card and the Host Computer. Only needed if using
- an Interface set to DIGIBOARD. If using STANDARD or
- INT14/EBIOS, can be set to 0.
- Line 7 - If using a DigiBoard, this is the I/O Port address that
- the Board is attached to. Only needed if using an
- Interface set to DIGIBOARD. If using STANDARD or
- INT14/EBIOS, can be set to 0.
- Line 8 - If using a DigiBoard, this is the Channel Number for
- this port on the Digi. This is REQUIRED for DIGIBOARD
- and INT14/EBIOS Interfaces. This is 1 - 8 for the
- DIGIBOARD Interface and usually 4 - 11 for the INT14/EBIOS
- Interface. This number tells the program which of the
- Com Ports on the DigiBoard it should use.
