3. Windows 95/98/Millennium (ME)
To allow easy configuration of the DSP-200/300, an Windows 95/98/ME "INF" configuration
file has been written for the hardware. It supports the AUXIN/AUXOUT options and the
RS-422/485 output driver enable options for full and half duplex operation.
3.1 Installing a DSP-200/300 Under Windows 95/98/ME
1. Insert the DSP-200/300 into any available PC Card socket.
2. The first time a new PC Card type is installed the
New Hardware Found
window
opens. After this first installation Windows
95/98/ME
will automatically detect and
configure the card. If the
New Hardware Found
window does not open, then skip to
the next section, “DSP-200/300 Resource Settings".
3. The
New Hardware Found
window provides several options to configure the
DSP-200/300 card. Click the
"Search for the best driver for your device"
option
button. Click "NEXT" to continue.
4. An
"Install from Disk"
dialog box should appear. Insert the Quatech COM CD file,
select the correct drive letter and path, and click "OK". Windows 95/98/ME will
browse the path for the aforementioned files.
5. During the installation process, it may be required to supply the computer with the
Windows 95/98/ME CD or installation CDs. Insert the CD and click "OK".
The DSP-200/300 PC Card should now be configured. With the default configuration, the
DSP-200/300's interrupt status register will be enabled, the 16C750 UART’s scratchpad
register will be disabled, the RS-422/485 output drivers will always be enabled, and
RTS-CTS modem control handshaking will be enabled. In the future, Windows 95/98/ME
will automatically recognize and configure the DSP-200/300 in this default configuration.
3.2 DSP-200/300 Resource Settings in Windows 95/98/ME
Windows
95/98/ME
maintains a registry of all known hardware installed within the computer.
Inside this hardware registry Windows
95/98/ME
keeps track of all the computer's resources,
such as base I/O addresses, IRQ levels, and DMA channels. In the case of a
PC Card
(PCMCIA)
type board, Windows
95/98/ME
configures the new hardware using free resources it
finds within the hardware registry, and updates the registry automatically.
To view and/or edit hardware devices in Windows
