INSTALLATION 2.1.1 Model Number References The descriptions of Ethernet adapter features use model numbers with a lower case x in them. The x indicates that any number from the model number reference chart applies to that feature. The model number E11xx indicates an E1100 series adapter with any media combination has the described feature. For example, an E1112 is an E1100 Series adapter with UTP and coax ports. A model with the suffix -X indicates a large memory option. The optional memory size

INSTALLATION 2.2.1 Unpacking the Adapter The network adapter and its software are shipped separately. The complete installation package should contain one conductive pouch with the adapter and this manual. The software is shipped in a shrink-wrapped package containing the software, a license agreement, and a Network Software Installation Guide. Carefully remove the conductive pouch from the box. Leave the adapter in the conductive pouch until you are ready to install it. Open the shrink-wrapped

INSTALLATION Boot PROM Socket JP1 JP2 I/O Base ROM Address Enable Figure 2-1. The E1112 Adapter 2.2.4 Preparing the E2100 for Installation The E21xx Series employs a socket for an optional Boot PROM. All parameters except the I/O base address and PROM base address are set through software. Instructions are included for setting the I/O base address, and installing the Boot PROM. Figure 2-2, an E2112 adapter, shows the locations of the jumpers and Boot PROM socket. Boot PROM addressing is cover

INSTALLATION 2.3 SETTING THE I/O BASE ADDRESS JUMPER The I/O base address Jumper, JP1, must be set to one of four possible addresses before the adapter is installed. The I/O base address jumper sets the I/O (input/output) base address that identifies the adapter to the PC. The I/O base address is a hexadecimal field that distinguishes the adapter from other adapters that may be in the PC. Two shunts are supplied with the jumper in the event you want to use the 220 address setting. Figures 2-1 an

INSTALLATION 2.4 I/O ADDRESS SPACE REQUIREMENTS The I/O address space for the E1100 and E2100 Series adapters occupies 20 Hex of the selected I/O base address. For example, if you select 220 Hex, the adapter I/O address range will extend through 23F Hex. Note that 23F lies within the address space (230 to 240) allotted to the bus mouse. If your system uses a bus mouse, address 220 cannot be used for the adapter because of the address conflict with the bus mouse. Appendix A, Address/Interrupt Tab

INSTALLATION To install a Boot PROM, remove the Boot PROM from its packaging. Ensure that the legs of the Boot PROM are aligned in a 90° angle with the PROM body so the legs of the Boot PROM are perpendicular to the Boot PROM pin sockets. Insert the Boot PROM into the PROM socket so that the notch in the PROM is aligned with the notch in the socket as shown in Figure 2-5. Refer to the Boot PROM installation instructions included with the PROM for setting Boot PROM parameters. Refer to your PC us
