    DRIVER INSTALLATION - DOS LAN REQUESTER WORKSTATION (DLC)

    
       This file contains instructions for installation and operation the
    
       TokenExpress adapter driver.  Refer to the appropriate Network Operation
    
       System documentation for any NOS-specific questions or other
    
       information.
    
    
    
       These instructions apply to Release 5.0 of the software.
    
    
    
       Installing and configuring the Intel TokenExpressadapter DLC driver for
    
       IBM Environments.
    
    
    
       General Guidelines
    
       The TokenExpress adapter installation program (INSTIBM.BAT) is dependent
    
       upon whether or not your application requires the IBM Netbios protocol.
    
    
    
       If Netbios is NOT used, the installation program creates a \NETWORK
    
       directory on the specified destination drive and copies the TokenExpress
    
       adapter DLC driver (OC02DLC.SYS) and the TokenExpress adapter interrupt
    
       arbitrator (OC01IA.SYS) files into it.
    
    
    
       If Netbios IS required, the IBM interrupt 5c arbitrator (DXMA0MOD.SYS)
    
       and the Netbios (DXMT0MOD.SYS) files are copied to the \NETWORK
    
       directory along with the TokenExpress adapter DLC driver (OC02DLC.SYS).
    
    
    
       The IBM interrupt 5c arbitrator and Netbios files are found on the IBM
    
       LAN Support Program diskette (must be purchased from IBM Corporation).
    
    
    
       To install the TokenExpress adapter DOS DLC driver, do the following:
    
    
    
         1. Insert the Intel adapter driver diskette #2 into drive A:.
    
    
    
         2. Run the TokenExpress adapter driver installation program by typing:
    
    
    
            A:\IBM\DOS\INSTIBM src dest
    
    
    
            where "src" is the drive containing the driver diskette and "dest"
    
            is the drive where the files will be written.  For example,
    
    
    
            A:\IBM\DOS\INSTIBM A: C:
    
    
    
         3. Follow the directions on your monitor to complete the installation.
    
    
    
       Note:     If you are using DOS LAN Requester, you may experience some
    
       problems when using the IBM Interrupt 5C Arbitrator (DXMA0MOD.SYS). 
    
       This file is copied from the IBM LAN Support diskette when installing
    
       IBM's NETBIOS (DXMT0MOD.SYS).
    
    
    
            You can eliminate the problem by using the Interrupt 5C Arbitrator
    
            (OC01IA.SYS) supplied on the TokenExpress driver diskette.  This is
    
            done as follows:
    
    
    
           a.  Insert the Intel driver diskette into drive A:
    
    
    
           b.  Copy the TokenExpress adapter Interrupt 5C Arbitrator into the
    
    
    
              \NETWORK where you installed your TokenExpress adapter DLC driver
    
              (OC02DLC.SYS).  For example, if you installed your DLC driver on
    
              drive C:, you would enter the command:
    
    
    
               COPY A:\IBM\DOS\OC01IA.SYS C:\NETWORK
    
    
    
           c.  Edit your CONFIG.SYS file and delete the entry for the IBM
    
              Interrupt 5C Arbitrator (DXMA0MOD.SYS).
    
    
    
           d.  Add an entry for the TokenExpress adapter Interrupt 5C
    
              Arbitrator (OC01IA.SYS) *immediately preceding* the entry for the
    
              TokenExpress DLC driver (OC02DLC.SYS).  For example:
    
    
    
            :
    
            DEVICE=C:\NETWORK\OC01IA.SYS <------- Add this line
    
            DEVICE=C:\NETWORK\OC02DLC.SYS <------- before this line!
    
            :
    
    
    
         4. Remove the Intel driver diskette #2 from drive A: and reboot your
    
            system.
    
    
    
         5. Install IBM DOS LAN Requester
    
    
    
       DOS LAN Requester software is currently packaged with LAN Server or LAN
    
       Enabler.  Use the IBM DOS Lan Requestor Installation Manual for
    
       installation instructions.  This process copies the Lan Requestor files
    
       needed to connect to Lan Server.
    
    
    
       Special Considerations
    
       An optional country code can be specified when loading the interrupt 5C
    
       arbitrator OC01IA.SYS.  Drivers loaded subsequently may then use this
    
       country code to display messages in the selected language.
    
    
    
       The country code is specified in the CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
    
    
    
       device = (path)\OC01IA.SYS <optional country code>
    
    
    
       The supported values are:
    
    
    
       01      US English
    
       45      Danish
    
       49      German
    
    
    
       The TokenExpress DLC driver supports four (4) optional parameters. 
    
       These parameters are specified in the CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
    
    
    
       device = (path)\OC02DLC.SYS -E<...> -N<...> -L -A
    
    
    
       The parameter definitions are:
    
    
    
       -E<AdapterNumber><EarlyRelease>
    
    
    
       AdapterNumber identifies the adapter as either primary or secondary.  (0
    
       = primary, 1 = secondary).
    
    
    
       EarlyRelease enables/disables Early Token Release.  ETR is enabled by
    
    
    
       default (0 = enable, 1= disable).  This parameter is ignored if the date
    
       rate is 4 Mbps.
    
    
    
       -N<AdapterNumber><NodeAddress>
    
    
    
       AdapterNumber identifies the adapter as either primary or secondary.  (0
    
       = primary, 1 = secondary).
    
    
    
       NodeAddress - Zero (0) or a locally administered node address.  A '0'
    
       forces the use of the adapter's burned-in address (BIA) and overrides an
    
       applications use of a local address.  The locally administered node
    
       address is a 12-digit hexadecimal number starting with 4, 5, 6, or 7.
    
    
    
       -L  causes the driver to copy all transmit data into a local buffer
    
       before transferring it to the network.  It may be necessary to use this
    
       with the TokenExpress ISA Adapter if all of the following conditions are
    
       met: 1) the adapter is configured as a Bus Master, 2) an expanded memory
    
       board is installed, and 3) the application transfers data directly from
    
       expanded memory to the network.  In addition, this parameter may be
    
       needed if the expanded memory manager does not support VCPI and/or the
    
       DPMI standards.
    
    
    
       Specifying this parameter causes the driver to use more memory and
    
       should only be specified if necessary.  Do not use this parameter if the
    
       adapter is configured to operate in programmed I/O mode.
    
    
    
       -A  causes the driver to treat the first adapter found as the secondary
    
       adapter (1) and ignore any other adapter.  If this parameter is not
    
       specified, the adapter with the lowest I/O address setting is
    
       automatically designated as the primary adapter (0) and the other
    
       adapter is the secondary adapter.
    
    
    
       Example: To configure a system having two TokenExpress adapters with
    
       locally administered addresses (the first adapter using address
    
       400000001066, the second adapter using 400000002067 and having Early
    
       Token Release disabled), the following entry would be placed in your
    
       CONFIG.SYS file:
    
    
    
       device=<path>\OC02DLC.SYS -N0400000001066 -N1400000002067 -E11
    
    
    
       Notes for use with Qualitas' 386MAX Memory Manager
    
       The 386MAX Memory Manager program allows physical memory above 1 Meg to
    
       be mapped into the address space between the video RAM and the BIOS ROM.
    
        You can free up conventional DOS memory by loading DXMA0MOD.SYS,
    
       OC02DLC.SYS and DXMT0MOD.SYS into this area.
    
    
    
       Additional considerations:
    
    
    
         *  The driver may not work if 386MAX is used to backfill the lower 640
    
            Kbytes (used if your 80386 machine does not have 640K low DOS
    
            memory without the 386MAX)
    
    
    
         *  Automatic recovery of unused shadow RAM by 386MAX should be
    
            disabled when using the TokenExpress MCA adapter because the shadow
    
            RAM may not be accessible.  This is done by adding the "noxram"
    
            parameter to your existing 'device = 386max.sys' statement as
    
    
    
            follows:
    
    
    
            device = 386max.sys noxram
    
    
    
         *  Do NOT use the option 'EMS=0' when installing 386MAX.SYS.  If using
    
            386MAX version 4.08 or higher, you may use the NOFRAME option
    
            instead.
    
    
    
         *  The 386MAX program provides an VCPI interface.  The DLC drivers
    
            should work with similar products that support the VCPI standard.
