SSP-200/300 User's Manual 5.
1 . Introduction The SSP-100 is a single channel RS- 232 asynchronous serial adapter for systems equipped with PCMCIA Type II and/or Type III expansion sockets. The SSP-100 is a PCMCIA Type II (5 mm) card and is PCMCIA PC Card Standard Specification 2.

2 . DOS / Windows 3.x Installation Two configuration software programs are provided with the SSP-100 : a Client Driver, and a card Enabler. Both of these programs are executed from DOS (before entering Windows) and allow operation of the SSP-100 in both the DOS and Windows 3.
2 . 1 SSP-100 Client Driver for DOS In order to use the SSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the SSP-100 but is available from Quatech .
version of Card and Socket Services must be installed on the system or the SSP-100 Enabler program must be used to configure the adapter. If the Client Driver reports the desired adapter configuration, the installation process is complete and the SSP-100 may be removed and/ or inserted from the system as desired.
option. If no number is specified, the SSP-100 will be configured as the next available COM Port using the standard base address and IRQ settings for that COM port.
DEVICE = C: SSP-100 SSP100CL.SYS (b300,i5) (i10) ( ) In example 5, three command line arguments are provided. The Client Driver will first attempt to configure a SSP-100 inserted into any socket with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. The BIOS equipment list will not be updated.
2.1.2.7 Example 7 DEVICE = C: SSP-100 SSP100CL.SYS (s0,b300,i5) (s1,b340,i10) The type of configuration shown in example 7 may be desirable in systems where more than one SSP-100 is to be installed. In this example, the Client Driver will attempt to configure a SSP-100 inserted into socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5.
2 . 1 . 3 Common Problems Generic Client Drivers: Many Card and Socket Services packages include a generic client driver (or SuperClient) which configures standard I/O devices. If one of these generic client drivers is installed, it may configure the SSP-100 causing the SSP-100 client driver to fail installation.
2 . 2 SSP-100 Enabler for DOS For systems that are not operating PCMCIA Card and Socket Services software, the SSP-100 DOS Enabler may be used to enable and configure the adapter.
2 . 2 . 1 Command Line Options To configure a SSP-100 in the system, the Enabler requires one command line argument from the user to determine the configuration of the card.
Before removing a SSP-100 from its PCMCIA socket, the Enabler should be executed to free the system resources allocated when the card was installed. For this operation the Enabler provides on additional command line option: R instructs the enabler to release the resources previously allocated to the SSP-100 .
2.2.1.4 Example 4 SSP100EN (s0,b300,i3,wd8) In example 4, the Enabler will configure the SSP-100 in socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 3 using a configuration memory window at segment D800.
SSP100EN (s0,a3) In Example 9, the Client Driver will attempt to configure an SSP-100 into socket 0 with the COM 3 standard address of 3E8H and IRQ 4. The COM 3 spot of the BIOS equipment list will be updated automatically.
2 . 2 . 2 Common Problems Memory Range Exclusion: The Enabler requires a region of high DOS memory when configuring a SSP-100 . This region is 1000H bytes (4KB) long and by default begins at address D0000H (the default address may be changed using the "W" option).

5 OS/2 Installation In order to use the SSP-100 Client Driver for OS/2, the system must be configured as follows: 1. The system must be running OS/2 version 2.
5 . 1 Command Line Options The SSP-100 Client Driver for OS/2 supports two methods of configuration: using "system assigned" resources and using "user assigned" resources.
problem if DOS and/or Windows applications will be accessing the serial ports. This is because most DOS applications write directly to the communications hardware and the Windows Control Panel also wants to know the hardware configuration of the serial ports.
5.1.2.2 Example 2 DEVICE=C: SSP-100 SSP 1 00.SYS (7,120,15) (3,300,4) In example 2, the Client Driver will attempt to configure the SSP-100 as COM3 using I/O address 300-3 07 hex and IRQ 4.
5 . 2 Monitoring The Status Of PCMCIA Cards OS/2 Warp provides a utility called "Plug and Play for PCMCIA" that can be used to monitor the status of each PCMCIA socket. In OS/2 version 2.1, this utility is called "Configuration Manager".
