2.1.2.4 Example 4
A single command line argument is provided. Because the parameter order is not significant,
the Client Driver will attempt to configure an IOP-241 inserted into any socket with a base
address of 300H and IRQ 11. If address 300H or IRQ 11 are unavailable, the IOP-241 will not
be configured.
2.1.2.5 Example 5
Three command line arguments are provided.
configure an IOP-241 inserted into any socket with a base address of 300H and IRQ5. If
address 300H or IRQ 5 are unavailable, the Client Driver will proceed to the second command
line argument and attempt to configure the card with a base address assigned by Card and
Socket Services and IRQ 10. If IRQ 10 is also unavailable, the Client Driver will proceed to the
third command line argument and attempt to configure the IOP-241 with a base address and
an IRQ assigned by Card and Socket Services.
2.1.2.6 Example 6
In example 6, the three command line arguments of example 5 have been rearranged. The
Client Driver will first attempt to configure an IOP-241 inserted into any socket with a base
address of 300H and IRQ 5. If address 300H or IRQ 5 are unavailable, the Client Driver will
proceed to the second command line argument and attempt to configure the card with a base
address and IRQ assigned by Card and Socket Services. Since the second command line
argument includes all available address and IRQ resources, the third command line argument
will never be reached by the Client Driver.
arguments are placed in a logical order.
2.1.2.7 Example 7
The type of configuration shown in example 7 may be desirable in systems where more than
one IOP-241 is to be installed. In this example, the Client Driver will attempt to configure an
IOP-241 inserted into socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. If the IOP-241 is
inserted into socket 1, the Client Driver will attempt to configure it with base address 340H
and IRQ 10. This allows the user to force the IOP-241's address and IRQ settings to be socket
specific which may simplify cable connections and software development. As in the previous
examples, however, if the requested address or interrupt resources are not available, the
IOP-241 will not be configured.
