If a NEICFG file already exists on the
directory, follow these steps to up-
date that file.
Append the new NEICFG file to the
old one using the DOS COPY com-
mand as follows:
copy c:\adi\net.cfg+a:net.cfg
c:\od i/net.cfg
This file is used to configure the entire
system, not just the driver
Using NET. CFG
To use and edit the NEICFG file, you
must do the following:
1. There is no need to use or edit the
NEICFG file if the SMC PLUS
adapter is an AI adapter con-
figured with the following default
settings:
Base I/O Address: 2 8 0
Interrupt IRQ:
3
RAM Base Address: DOOO.
2. If the adapter being used is software-
configurable, then only the Base
1/0 Address must be specified.
3. To change the base 1//0 address, use
the line in NET.CFG which reads
P o r t # l 2 8 0 2 0
and change 280 to the appropriate
Base I/O Address.
4. To change the IRQ, use the line in
NEICFG which reads:
I i i t # l 3
and change 3 to the appropriate IRQ.
5. To change the RAM Base Address,
use the line in NEICFG which
reads
Mem #1 OOODOOOO 2000/10
and change D O O O O to the appropriate
RAM Base Address. For example:
Mem #1 000C8000 2000/10
will cause the driver to use C8000 as
the RAM Base Address.
When using NET.CFG with Micro
Channel machines, use the PS/2
Slot entry. Find the line which
reads:
PS/2 Slot ?
and change the ? to the desired slot
number
Note: Ihe '#' in the first column of the
NEICFG file denotes an ignored
line. Remove this symbol from all
used lines and insert them into all
unused lines, or delete unused
lines altogether
