Configuration Settings Descriptions
This section describes each configuration setting for the
3C589C PC Card.

I/O Base Address

This setting specifies the portion of the PC's I/O address space
that will be used by the PC Card for communication between
the PC Card and the PC. The PC Card uses 16 bytes of I/O
space, starting at the I/O Base Address.
Make sure that no other device is using the same value. The
I/O Base Address range is from 200h to 3A0h and is assigned
by Card Services. If you are not using Card Services, the
default is 300h.

Interrupt Request Level

This setting specifies the Interrupt Request Level that is used by
the PC Card for communication between the PC Card and the PC.
The 3C589C PC Card can operate on one of eight interrupt
levels: 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 15.
The preferred interrupt level is 10, but the PC Card can
operate on the other levels if necessary. If a conflict continues,
you may have to change the setting of other adapters or
options that are in the PC.

CIS Memory Base Address

The CIS Memory requires a 4 K segment of memory for drivers
and an 8 K block when you are running diagnostics.

Transceiver Type

The Transceiver Type can be Auto Sense or Twisted-Pair. The
default is Auto Sense. If the PC Card cannot automatically
sense what type of cable is connected to the network, it will
assign Twisted-Pair.
