• Infrared device driver to support networking over an infrared link with the IBM Multi-Protocol Transport Service (MPTS) software.

The two drivers cannot work together, so you must install only the one you use.

The former is included in TranXit for OS/2, and is installed when you install the application. You need not install it separately. The latter is included in the Infrared Features Diskette II, and is installed as a Network Device Interface Specification Version 2 (NDIS2) compliant network adapter driver, when you install and configure the MPTS networking software that comes with OS/2 Warp Connect, OS/2 Warp Server, or TCP/IP for OS/2. Refer to the respective networking software publication for installation procedures. The README file on the Infrared Features Diskette II also contains additional information.
