Setup for SMC Elite 16+
PROBLEM - What is the proper setup for the SMC Elite 16+ Ethernet card with a
Valuepoint 6381 Si machine?
Systems AFFECTED - All 6381 Si machines.
SOLUTION - Workstation setup -
- DOS version 5.0 or higher is acceptable, with Windows 3.1.
make a sub directory and copy all files from the dos_odi directory
in the superdisk (setup disk for the elite Ethernet card).
- Select I/O base address 280, IRQ3, and RAM base address d0000 if
the elite 16+ card is the only adapter in the system. No need to
change the jumper setting at W1 and w2.
- If you have other adapters in the system or if want to use a
different setting you must set the W1 jumper to soft. then run the
ezsetup program from the superdisk and select the value you want
(manual page 28).
- If you use a memory management utility (EMM, QEMM, 386MAX) you
have to exclude the Ethernet cards RAM address space from your
memory management driver by adding "/x=D000-D3FF" (or whatever your
RAM address is) to the command line "DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE" in the
config.sys file.
- You may run diagnose (f ROM superdisk) to check for conflicts.
- You may elect to type commands; lsl, smc8000, ipxodi, netx) one
at a time to load the drivers and connect to the network. you can
also add these commands to the end of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to start
the automatic load.
Sever Setup -
- Follow the instructions on pages 53 and 54 to install Netware 386
v3.11 on a server.
- Use the ODI drivers in place of the IPX drivers.
- If you are running Windows, you must go into the Windows setup
icon and select Novell Netware for the network.
- The server should be activated by typing SERVER at the DOS
prompt before activating any workstation.
