This READ.ME contains supplements to the "WaveRunner Digital Modem
Installation and Testing Instructions". Additional information and
software updates may be obtained from the IBM Personal Computer Company
Bulletin Board System via a modem by calling 1-919-517-0001.
Information may also be obtained over the INTERNET by anonymous FTP to
www.raleigh.ibm.com and accessing subdirectory pub/standards/waverun.
Installation Prerequisite
===================================
If you are installing THE ISDN Digital Modem in a PS/2 Model P70,
the Reference Diskette must be Version 1.04 or higher to successfully
update from the Startup Option Diskette. If you have an earlier
version of this Reference Diskette, contact an IBM Authorized Service
Representative to obtain a new one.
Testing the WaveRunner Adapter
======================
Diagnostic Test
------------------
The NT1 Loopback test requires an NT1 that supports the S&Q maintenance
channel. Support of the S&Q maintenance channel is an option provided
by some NT1 manufacturers. Check the documentation supplied with your
NT1 to determine if the S&Q maintenance channel is supported. If not,
then bypass this test.
DMA Channel Switch Setting for ISA machines
--------------------------------------------
If the DMA Channel Switch Settings on the Adapter (Switch Block S2)
do not match the DMA Channel that the Diagnostics program is
testing, the diagnostics may not be able to complete the ISDN Hardware
Tests. When running Diagnostics, if the screen will not advance past
"Testing ISDN Hardware... ", check that the DMA channel that you specified
in Diagnostics is the same one that is selected on the adapter (Switch
Block S2).
Configuring your Communications Application
===============================================
Configure your communications application for a Hayes compatible
modem or Mwave compatible.
Also, configure the application to use the same Com Port that adapter
is configured for.
LAN Distance
============
Installation
------------
Installation for use with IBM LAN Distance is easier if the LAN
Distance product is installed first. This allows the installation
program to make required modifications to LAN Distance
configuration files. Refer to online help for more information on
configuring LAN Distance for use with ISDN Digital Modem.
LAN Distance Compatability
--------------------------
The version of the WaveRunner GCCI/ANDIS interface is compatible
with LAN Distance. To use this code with LAN Distance do
the following:
This code requires your LAN Distance installation to be running
at CSD level LD08175 or later. Earlier versions of LAN
Distance will not work properly. To get CSD 8175, FTP to:
service.boulder.ibm.com/ps/products/landist/fixes/v1.1/
From there, follow the directories for your specific country.
IBM Communications Manager/2 (CM/2) Configuration Instructions
==============================================================
This is not intended to be an exhaustive configuration guide for
CM/2. It is intended to explain only the ISDN specific
configuration options. The specific protocol and application you
intend to use must be configured in addition to the items
mentioned below.
1. Shut down CM/2 if it is started.
2. Double click on the Communications Manager Setup icon to start
the CM/2 configuration utility.
3. Click on 'Setup'. Verify that you are modifying the correct
configuration and click on 'OK'. You may be asked if the
configuration you specified is to be used on the current
workstation. Answer appropriately.
4. The PCM is configured through the SNA Phone Connect (SPC)
options. These are configured as follows:
SPC - Connection Manager: This is where incoming and outgoing
phonebook entries are defined. For outgoing calls, the bearer
capability and called party number subfields are required. For
incoming calls, defining no subfields will indicate that all
incoming calls are to be answered.
SPC - Port Connection Manager: From the Modem Connection
pulldown, select ISDN. 'IBM Mwave WaveRunner' should appear in
the PCM window. Select this line and click on 'Configure'. On
the panel that appears, you should enter the local ISDN
telephone number for your WaveRunner adapter. Do not include
non-numeric characters such as dashes or parentheses.
SPC - Protocol Driver: Select and configure the protocol
driver desired.
5. The ISDN specific portions of the protocol definitions are
simply a matter of specifying the desired phonebook entries
that were created under SNA Phone Connect - Connection Manager.
How this is done will depend on which protocol is to be used.
SDLC/IDLC: Use the SNA Phone Connect version of these protocol
definitions. Specify the desired phonebook entries on the
configuration panel.
X.25: The phonebook entries are under the X.25 Links panel.
On this panel, choose ISDN as the adapter type. Under
'Additional parameters', select ISDN and configure the desired
phonebook entries.
6. Other configuration parameters should not be ISDN-specific.
