- Author: artpo@wp.pl (Artur Pogoda)
- Uploader: artpo@wp.pl (Artur Pogoda)
- Type: util/boot
- Replaces: util/boot/CardReset
- Requires: Kickstart 37.300+, A600/A1200
-
- util/boot/CardPatch.lha is recommended
- Version: 3.0
-
-
- Description:
-
- CardReset forces a high level on pin 58 of the Amiga PCMCIA slot
- (reset signal). A PC Card must be plugged within the PCMCIA slot.
- GAYLE does not assert the reset signal when the slot is empty.
- CardReset also enables or disables the BVD2/speaker signal
- (pin 62 of the PCMCIA slot) to Amiga right channel audio output.
-
-
- Usage:
-
- CardReset [TICKS <n>] [FORCE] [AUDIO ON|YES|OFF|NO]
-
- TICKS/N/K The time of the reset operation in Amiga TICKS (1 TICKS is
- equal 20 mS). Maximum: 50 TICKS (1 sec.). If a number of TICKS
- is 0 or less the operation will not be done. Don't use TICKS 5
- or less. PC Cards require the reset time 100 or 200 mS.
- The default value is equal 15 TICKS (300 mS).
-
- FORCE/S If this option is not used and any other device is the owner
- of PC Card (like cnet.device), the reset operation will not be
- done and CardReset will return the error code number 10.
- If this option is used and any other device is the owner of
- PC Card the operation will be done and CardReset will return
- the error code number 5 (if the system will not be crashed).
-
- AUDIO/T/K Toggle switch. The correct words are ON/OFF or YES/NO.
- It connects/disconnects the speaker (DIGITAL AUDIO) pin to
- Amiga standard audio output. This function is done always,
- either any device is the owner of PC Card or not.
- Default: no change.
-
-
- Installation:
-
- Copy CardReset to C: directory.
-
- Add "CardPatch" line to Startup-Seqence. Look for util/boot/CardPatch.lha.
-
- Add "CardReset" line to your Startup-Sequence or User-Startup.
-
- Remove all hardware PCMCIA reset solutions. Don't use the opencnet patch
- before CardReset is run (system crashes). If you use CardPatch you need not
- use this (opencnet) patch.
