• CSALLOC.INI
This file is used by the CSALLOC.EXE driver to allocate memory, I/O, and interrupt
resources to PCMCIA cards. Much of the upper memory area is used by the BIOS. This
memory must be excluded from use by lines in the CSALLOC.INI file.
The default CSALLOC.INI file contains the following memory settings:
RIO=2F8-2FF,370-377,3E8-3FF,100-1FFF
MEMEXCLUDE=C000-CFFF,D000-DFFF,E000-EFFF
Generally, these lines are constant and should never be changed by the user.
The PDT 7500 has IRQ lines dedicated for internal system use, others are available for
PCMCIA I/O cards. IRQ 11 and 15 are available to PCMCIA I/O cards; IRQ 3 and 4,
although allocated for internal communication ports, can be used by PCMCIA modems when
the internal communication ports (COM1 and COM2) are not active.
To allow use of an I/O card that requires an IRQ line in a PCMCIA slot, the default
CSALLOC.INI contains the following lines:
IRQEXCLUDE=0-2,5-9,C-E
IRQINCLUDE=A-B,F
This restricts the I/O cards to IRQ lines 10, 11, and 15.
In addition to the IRQ lines discussed above, modem cards may also use IRQ lines 3 and 4
for COM3 and COM4, respectively. To use IRQ lines 3 and 4 for modem cards, modify the
default CSALLOC.INI (below the resource modification line) to read:
IRQEXCLUDE=0-2,5-9,C-E
IRQINCLUDE=3-4,A-B,F
Consult the CardSoft 3.1 User's Guide for more information.
