1.0 Overview
=============
This USBCOMM.EXE driver package provides you with IBM's most current support
for Universal Serial Bus (USB) communication (modem) devices on the OS/2
Operating System.
1.1 The USBCOMM.EXE file that you received contains the following 3 USB
files in a self-extracting compressed format.
- README.TXT This file that you are reading
- USBCINST.EXE Executable that installs USB communication driver
support
- USBCOM.SYS USB Communication Driver
2.0 USB-Modem Installation Instructions
===========================================
2.1 To use these USB driver files, you must expand the USBCOMM.EXE file into
its 3 component files by
(a.) opening an OS/2 window and
(b.) typing USBCOMM at the OS/2 command prompt.
Once the USBCOMM.EXE file is expanded, please continue with the
USB Installation Instructions.
2.2 At the OS/2 command prompt, type USBCINST. This command will:
(a.) Verify that the Basic USB device driver support is present.
(b.) Create a backup copy of the existing CONFIG.SYS file. The name of
the backup file is displayed on the OS/2 window.
(c.) Add the USB communication device drivers to the OS2\BOOT directory on
the Boot partition.
(d.) Update the CONFIG.SYS file with the appropriate USB modem entry.
DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\USBCOM.SYS
Where C: is the drive letter of the OS/2 boot partition on your
system.
2.3 This completes the installation procedure. You must now REBOOT you system
to initialize the USB communication device driver support.
3.0 USB-Modem Un-Install Instructions
================================
3.1 Restore the backup version of the CONFIG.SYS file that was created by the
IBMCINST utility to be the system's CONFIG.SYS configuration file.

USB-Communication driver from the system configuration.
