Packet Driver Installation
The diskettes distributed with the EPC-8A contain two packet drivers named
ATDRIVE.COM (for 16-bit NE2000 mode) and WD8003E.COM (for 16-bit Western
Digital mode). RadiSys also supplies files named TELBIN (a Telnet terminal emulation)
and FTPBin (an FTP or File Transfer Program) that work with TCP/IP.
To install the packet drivers, first run AUTOSET to initialize the adapter (IRQ, I/O port,
shared memory base, and so on.)
Once AUTOSETAUTOSET has been run, install the packet driver. Add the following
lines to the end of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
For WD8003:
REM WD8003 <s/w interrupt> <IRQ> <IO_Base> <shared memory base>
wd8003e 0x60 5 0x240 0xDC000
ipxpkt.com(supplied with EPC-8A distribution diskettes)
netx.com(supplied with network software or operating system)
For NE2000:
REM ATDrive -i <software interrupt> -b <I/O Base> -q <IRQ> -n
ATDrive -i 60 -b 240 -q 5 -n
ipxpkt.com(supplied with EPC-8A distribution diskettes)
netx.com(supplied with network software or operating system)
Windows NT Driver Installation
This section explains how to use the NE2000 driver provided with Windows NT to access
the network using the EPC-8A. Be sure to use a 16-bit data width, and run AUTOSET first
(in DOS) to set up the hardware parameters in I/O Port mode.
1. Log on to Windows NT.
2. Select the Network icon in the Control Panel.
3. Select the Adapters button and install the NE2000 adapter.
4. Select and install the NE2000.SYS driver. When completed, restart the system in
order for the changes to take effect.
5. Select the File Manager icon. Select “Network Connection” under the Disk Menu.
Additional drives that are now available display in the list, verifying the installation.
