Windows version) to accept your changes. You do not have
to reboot the computer.
Full Duplex Operation
By default the card works in half duplex mode. In this mode, the
card can at a given time either send or receive data, but not both.
Clicking the full-duplex checkbox in the CardAssistant
Configuration dialog box changes the card’s capabilities to full
duplex which enables the card to send and receive
simultaneously. Full duplex operation is only effective if a full-
duplex hub is at the other end of the Ethernet segment.
Diagnostics Checks
The CardAssistant diagnostic routines test the board and the
configuration for functional problems or conflicts with other
devices. The routines are:
•
PC bus interface
•
DMA channel
•
Interrupt test
•
Internal loopback
•
Network Address
•
Boot PROM (if applicable)
You can see if the board passes before connecting the computer
to the network, and then confirm that it still passes after the
network connector is plugged in. This method can help you
isolate any problem.
