|  | 17 | INTRODUCTION TO ARCNET | 
|  | 18 | ---------------------- | 
|  | 19 |  | 
|  | 20 | ARCnet is a network type which works in a way similar to popular Ethernet | 
|  | 21 | networks but which is also different in some very important ways. | 
|  | 22 |  | 
|  | 23 | First of all, you can get ARCnet cards in at least two speeds: 2.5 Mbps | 
|  | 24 | (slower than Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (faster than normal Ethernet).  In fact, | 
|  | 25 | there are others as well, but these are less common.  The different hardware | 
|  | 26 | types, as far as I'm aware, are not compatible and so you cannot wire a | 
|  | 27 | 100 Mbps card to a 2.5 Mbps card, and so on.  From what I hear, my driver does | 
|  | 28 | work with 100 Mbps cards, but I haven't been able to verify this myself, | 
|  | 29 | since I only have the 2.5 Mbps variety.  It is probably not going to saturate | 
|  | 30 | your 100 Mbps card.  Stop complaining. :) | 
|  | 31 |  | 
|  | 32 | You also cannot connect an ARCnet card to any kind of Ethernet card and | 
|  | 33 | expect it to work. | 
|  | 34 |  | 
|  | 35 | There are two "types" of ARCnet - STAR topology and BUS topology.  This | 
|  | 36 | refers to how the cards are meant to be wired together.  According to most | 
|  | 37 | available documentation, you can only connect STAR cards to STAR cards and | 
|  | 38 | BUS cards to BUS cards.  That makes sense, right?  Well, it's not quite | 
|  | 39 | true; see below under "Cabling." | 
|  | 40 |  | 
|  | 41 | Once you get past these little stumbling blocks, ARCnet is actually quite a | 
|  | 42 | well-designed standard.  It uses something called "modified token passing" | 
|  | 43 | which makes it completely incompatible with so-called "Token Ring" cards, | 
|  | 44 | but which makes transfers much more reliable than Ethernet does.  In fact, | 
|  | 45 | ARCnet will guarantee that a packet arrives safely at the destination, and | 
|  | 46 | even if it can't possibly be delivered properly (ie. because of a cable | 
|  | 47 | break, or because the destination computer does not exist) it will at least | 
|  | 48 | tell the sender about it. | 
|  | 49 |  | 
|  | 50 | Because of the carefully defined action of the "token", it will always make | 
|  | 51 | a pass around the "ring" within a maximum length of time.  This makes it | 
|  | 52 | useful for realtime networks. | 
|  | 53 |  | 
|  | 54 | In addition, all known ARCnet cards have an (almost) identical programming | 
|  | 55 | interface.  This means that with one ARCnet driver you can support any | 
|  | 56 | card, whereas with Ethernet each manufacturer uses what is sometimes a | 
|  | 57 | completely different programming interface, leading to a lot of different, | 
|  | 58 | sometimes very similar, Ethernet drivers.  Of course, always using the same | 
|  | 59 | programming interface also means that when high-performance hardware | 
|  | 60 | facilities like PCI bus mastering DMA appear, it's hard to take advantage of | 
|  | 61 | them.  Let's not go into that. | 
|  | 62 |  | 
|  | 63 | One thing that makes ARCnet cards difficult to program for, however, is the | 
|  | 64 | limit on their packet sizes; standard ARCnet can only send packets that are | 
|  | 65 | up to 508 bytes in length.  This is smaller than the Internet "bare minimum" | 
|  | 66 | of 576 bytes, let alone the Ethernet MTU of 1500.  To compensate, an extra | 
|  | 67 | level of encapsulation is defined by RFC1201, which I call "packet | 
|  | 68 | splitting," that allows "virtual packets" to grow as large as 64K each, | 
|  | 69 | although they are generally kept down to the Ethernet-style 1500 bytes. | 
|  | 70 |  | 
|  | 71 | For more information on the advantages and disadvantages (mostly the | 
|  | 72 | advantages) of ARCnet networks, you might try the "ARCnet Trade Association" |

|  | 77 | CABLING ARCNET NETWORKS | 
|  | 78 | ----------------------- | 
|  | 79 |  | 
|  | 80 | This section was rewritten by | 
|  | 81 | Vojtech Pavlik     <vojtech@suse.cz> | 
|  | 82 | using information from several people, including: | 
|  | 83 | Avery Pennraun     <apenwarr@worldvisions.ca> | 
|  | 84 | Stephen A. Wood    <saw@hallc1.cebaf.gov> | 
|  | 85 | John Paul Morrison <jmorriso@bogomips.ee.ubc.ca> | 
|  | 86 | Joachim Koenig     <jojo@repas.de> | 
|  | 87 | and Avery touched it up a bit, at Vojtech's request. | 
|  | 88 |  | 
|  | 89 | ARCnet (the classic 2.5 Mbps version) can be connected by two different | 
|  | 90 | types of cabling: coax and twisted pair.  The other ARCnet-type networks | 
|  | 91 | (100 Mbps TCNS and 320 kbps - 32 Mbps ARCnet Plus) use different types of | 
|  | 92 | cabling (Type1, Fiber, C1, C4, C5). | 
|  | 93 |  | 
|  | 94 | For a coax network, you "should" use 93 Ohm RG-62 cable.  But other cables | 
|  | 95 | also work fine, because ARCnet is a very stable network. I personally use 75 | 
|  | 96 | Ohm TV antenna cable. | 
|  | 97 |  | 
|  | 98 | Cards for coax cabling are shipped in two different variants: for BUS and | 
|  | 99 | STAR network topologies.  They are mostly the same.  The only difference | 
|  | 100 | lies in the hybrid chip installed.  BUS cards use high impedance output, | 
|  | 101 | while STAR use low impedance.  Low impedance card (STAR) is electrically | 
|  | 102 | equal to a high impedance one with a terminator installed. | 
|  | 103 |  | 
|  | 104 | Usually, the ARCnet networks are built up from STAR cards and hubs.  There | 
|  | 105 | are two types of hubs - active and passive.  Passive hubs are small boxes | 
|  | 106 | with four BNC connectors containing four 47 Ohm resistors: | 
|  | 107 |  | 
|  | 108 | |         | wires | 
|  | 109 | R         + junction | 
|  | 110 | -R-+-R-      R 47 Ohm resistors | 
|  | 111 | R | 
|  | 112 | | | 
|  | 113 |  | 
|  | 114 | The shielding is connected together.  Active hubs are much more complicated; | 
|  | 115 | they are powered and contain electronics to amplify the signal and send it | 
|  | 116 | to other segments of the net.  They usually have eight connectors.  Active | 
|  | 117 | hubs come in two variants - dumb and smart.  The dumb variant just | 
|  | 118 | amplifies, but the smart one decodes to digital and encodes back all packets | 
|  | 119 | coming through.  This is much better if you have several hubs in the net, | 
|  | 120 | since many dumb active hubs may worsen the signal quality. | 
|  | 121 |  | 
|  | 122 | And now to the cabling.  What you can connect together: | 
|  | 123 |  | 
|  | 124 | 1. A card to a card.  This is the simplest way of creating a 2-computer | 
|  | 125 | network. | 
|  | 126 |  | 
|  | 127 | 2. A card to a passive hub.  Remember that all unused connectors on the hub | 
|  | 128 | must be properly terminated with 93 Ohm (or something else if you don't | 
|  | 129 | have the right ones) terminators. | 
|  | 130 | (Avery's note: oops, I didn't know that.  Mine (TV cable) works | 
|  | 131 | anyway, though.) | 
|  | 132 |  | 
|  | 133 | 3. A card to an active hub.  Here is no need to terminate the unused | 
|  | 134 | connectors except some kind of aesthetic feeling.  But, there may not be | 
|  | 135 | more than eleven active hubs between any two computers.  That of course | 
|  | 136 | doesn't limit the number of active hubs on the network. | 
|  | 137 |  | 
|  | 138 | 4. An active hub to another. | 
|  | 139 |  | 
|  | 140 | 5. An active hub to passive hub. | 
|  | 141 |  | 
|  | 142 | Remember, that you can not connect two passive hubs together.  The power loss | 
|  | 143 | implied by such a connection is too high for the net to operate reliably. | 
|  | 144 |  | 
|  | 145 | An example of a typical ARCnet network: | 
|  | 146 |  | 
|  | 147 | R                     S - STAR type card | 
|  | 148 | S------H--------A-------S    R - Terminator | 
|  | 149 | |        |            H - Hub | 
|  | 150 | |        |            A - Active hub | 
|  | 151 | |   S----H----S | 
|  | 152 | S        | | 
|  | 153 | | | 
|  | 154 | S | 
|  | 155 |  | 
|  | 156 | The BUS topology is very similar to the one used by Ethernet.  The only | 
|  | 157 | difference is in cable and terminators: they should be 93 Ohm.  Ethernet | 
|  | 158 | uses 50 Ohm impedance. You use T connectors to put the computers on a single | 
|  | 159 | line of cable, the bus. You have to put terminators at both ends of the | 
|  | 160 | cable. A typical BUS ARCnet network looks like: | 
|  | 161 |  | 
|  | 162 | RT----T------T------T------T------TR | 
|  | 163 | B    B      B      B      B      B | 
|  | 164 |  | 
|  | 165 | B - BUS type card | 
|  | 166 | R - Terminator | 
|  | 167 | T - T connector | 
|  | 168 |  | 
|  | 169 | But that is not all! The two types can be connected together.  According to | 
|  | 170 | the official documentation the only way of connecting them is using an active | 
|  | 171 | hub: | 
|  | 172 |  | 
|  | 173 | A------T------T------TR | 
|  | 174 | |      B      B      B | 
|  | 175 | S---H---S | 
|  | 176 | | | 
|  | 177 | S | 
|  | 178 |  | 
|  | 179 | The official docs also state that you can use STAR cards at the ends of | 
|  | 180 | BUS network in place of a BUS card and a terminator: | 
|  | 181 |  | 
|  | 182 | S------T------T------S | 
|  | 183 | B      B | 
|  | 184 |  | 
|  | 185 | But, according to my own experiments, you can simply hang a BUS type card | 
|  | 186 | anywhere in middle of a cable in a STAR topology network.  And more - you | 
|  | 187 | can use the bus card in place of any star card if you use a terminator. Then | 
|  | 188 | you can build very complicated networks fulfilling all your needs!  An | 
|  | 189 | example: | 
|  | 190 |  | 
|  | 191 | S | 
|  | 192 | | | 
|  | 193 | RT------T-------T------H------S | 
|  | 194 | B      B       B      | | 
|  | 195 | |       R | 
|  | 196 | S------A------T-------T-------A-------H------TR | 
|  | 197 | |      B       B       |       |      B | 
|  | 198 | |   S                 BT       | | 
|  | 199 | |   |                  |  S----A-----S | 
|  | 200 | S------H---A----S             |       | | 
|  | 201 | |   |      S------T----H---S   | | 
|  | 202 | S   S             B    R       S | 
|  | 203 |  | 
|  | 204 | A basically different cabling scheme is used with Twisted Pair cabling. Each | 
|  | 205 | of the TP cards has two RJ (phone-cord style) connectors.  The cards are | 
|  | 206 | then daisy-chained together using a cable connecting every two neighboring | 
|  | 207 | cards.  The ends are terminated with RJ 93 Ohm terminators which plug into | 
|  | 208 | the empty connectors of cards on the ends of the chain.  An example: | 
|  | 209 |  | 
|  | 210 | ___________   ___________ | 
|  | 211 | _R_|_         _|_|_         _|_R_ | 
|  | 212 | |     |       |     |       |     | | 
|  | 213 | |Card |       |Card |       |Card | | 
|  | 214 | |_____|       |_____|       |_____| | 
|  | 215 |  | 
|  | 216 |  | 
|  | 217 | There are also hubs for the TP topology.  There is nothing difficult | 
|  | 218 | involved in using them; you just connect a TP chain to a hub on any end or | 
|  | 219 | even at both.  This way you can create almost any network configuration. | 
|  | 220 | The maximum of 11 hubs between any two computers on the net applies here as | 
|  | 221 | well.  An example: | 
|  | 222 |  | 
|  | 223 | RP-------P--------P--------H-----P------P-----PR | 
|  | 224 | | | 
|  | 225 | RP-----H--------P--------H-----P------PR | 
|  | 226 | |                 | | 
|  | 227 | PR                PR | 
|  | 228 |  | 
|  | 229 | R - RJ Terminator | 
|  | 230 | P - TP Card | 
|  | 231 | H - TP Hub | 
|  | 232 |  | 
|  | 233 | Like any network, ARCnet has a limited cable length.  These are the maximum | 
|  | 234 | cable lengths between two active ends (an active end being an active hub or | 
|  | 235 | a STAR card). | 
|  | 236 |  | 
|  | 237 | RG-62       93 Ohm up to 650 m | 
|  | 238 | RG-59/U     75 Ohm up to 457 m | 
|  | 239 | RG-11/U     75 Ohm up to 533 m | 
|  | 240 | IBM Type 1 150 Ohm up to 200 m | 
|  | 241 | IBM Type 3 100 Ohm up to 100 m | 
|  | 242 |  | 
|  | 243 | The maximum length of all cables connected to a passive hub is limited to 65 | 
|  | 244 | meters for RG-62 cabling; less for others.  You can see that using passive | 
|  | 245 | hubs in a large network is a bad idea. The maximum length of a single "BUS | 
|  | 246 | Trunk" is about 300 meters for RG-62. The maximum distance between the two | 
|  | 247 | most distant points of the net is limited to 3000 meters. The maximum length | 
|  | 248 | of a TP cable between two cards/hubs is 650 meters. | 
|  | 249 |  | 
|  | 250 |  | 
|  | 251 | SETTING THE JUMPERS | 
|  | 252 | ------------------- | 
|  | 253 |  | 
|  | 254 | All ARCnet cards should have a total of four or five different settings: | 
|  | 255 |  | 
|  | 256 | - the I/O address:  this is the "port" your ARCnet card is on.  Probed | 
|  | 257 | values in the Linux ARCnet driver are only from 0x200 through 0x3F0. (If | 
|  | 258 | your card has additional ones, which is possible, please tell me.) This | 
|  | 259 | should not be the same as any other device on your system.  According to | 
|  | 260 | a doc I got from Novell, MS Windows prefers values of 0x300 or more, | 
|  | 261 | eating net connections on my system (at least) otherwise.  My guess is | 
|  | 262 | this may be because, if your card is at 0x2E0, probing for a serial port | 
|  | 263 | at 0x2E8 will reset the card and probably mess things up royally. | 
|  | 264 | - Avery's favourite: 0x300. | 
|  | 265 |  | 
|  | 266 | - the IRQ: on  8-bit cards, it might be 2 (9), 3, 4, 5, or 7. | 
|  | 267 | on 16-bit cards, it might be 2 (9), 3, 4, 5, 7, or 10-15. | 
|  | 268 |  | 
|  | 269 | Make sure this is different from any other card on your system.  Note | 
|  | 270 | that IRQ2 is the same as IRQ9, as far as Linux is concerned.  You can | 
|  | 271 | "cat /proc/interrupts" for a somewhat complete list of which ones are in | 
|  | 272 | use at any given time.  Here is a list of common usages from Vojtech | 
|  | 273 | Pavlik <vojtech@suse.cz>: | 
|  | 274 | ("Not on bus" means there is no way for a card to generate this | 
|  | 275 | interrupt) | 
|  | 276 | IRQ  0 - Timer 0 (Not on bus) | 
|  | 277 | IRQ  1 - Keyboard (Not on bus) | 
|  | 278 | IRQ  2 - IRQ Controller 2 (Not on bus, nor does interrupt the CPU) | 
|  | 279 | IRQ  3 - COM2 | 
|  | 280 | IRQ  4 - COM1 | 
|  | 281 | IRQ  5 - FREE (LPT2 if you have it; sometimes COM3; maybe PLIP) | 
|  | 282 | IRQ  6 - Floppy disk controller | 
|  | 283 | IRQ  7 - FREE (LPT1 if you don't use the polling driver; PLIP) | 
|  | 284 | IRQ  8 - Realtime Clock Interrupt (Not on bus) | 
|  | 285 | IRQ  9 - FREE (VGA vertical sync interrupt if enabled) | 
|  | 286 | IRQ 10 - FREE | 
|  | 287 | IRQ 11 - FREE | 
|  | 288 | IRQ 12 - FREE | 
|  | 289 | IRQ 13 - Numeric Coprocessor (Not on bus) | 
|  | 290 | IRQ 14 - Fixed Disk Controller | 
|  | 291 | IRQ 15 - FREE (Fixed Disk Controller 2 if you have it) | 
|  | 292 |  | 
|  | 293 | Note: IRQ 9 is used on some video cards for the "vertical retrace" | 
|  | 294 | interrupt.  This interrupt would have been handy for things like | 
|  | 295 | video games, as it occurs exactly once per screen refresh, but | 
|  | 296 | unfortunately IBM cancelled this feature starting with the original | 
|  | 297 | VGA and thus many VGA/SVGA cards do not support it.  For this | 
|  | 298 | reason, no modern software uses this interrupt and it can almost | 
|  | 299 | always be safely disabled, if your video card supports it at all. | 
|  | 300 |  | 
|  | 301 | If your card for some reason CANNOT disable this IRQ (usually there | 
|  | 302 | is a jumper), one solution would be to clip the printed circuit | 
|  | 303 | contact on the board: it's the fourth contact from the left on the | 
|  | 304 | back side.  I take no responsibility if you try this. | 
|  | 305 |  | 
|  | 306 | - Avery's favourite: IRQ2 (actually IRQ9).  Watch that VGA, though. | 
|  | 307 |  | 
|  | 308 | - the memory address:  Unlike most cards, ARCnets use "shared memory" for | 
|  | 309 | copying buffers around.  Make SURE it doesn't conflict with any other | 
|  | 310 | used memory in your system! | 
|  | 311 | A0000		- VGA graphics memory (ok if you don't have VGA) | 
|  | 312 | B0000		- Monochrome text mode | 
|  | 313 | C0000		\  One of these is your VGA BIOS - usually C0000. | 
|  | 314 | E0000		/ | 
|  | 315 | F0000		- System BIOS | 
|  | 316 |  | 
|  | 317 | Anything less than 0xA0000 is, well, a BAD idea since it isn't above | 
|  | 318 | 640k. | 
|  | 319 | - Avery's favourite: 0xD0000 | 
|  | 320 |  | 
|  | 321 | - the station address:  Every ARCnet card has its own "unique" network | 
|  | 322 | address from 0 to 255.  Unlike Ethernet, you can set this address | 
|  | 323 | yourself with a jumper or switch (or on some cards, with special | 
|  | 324 | software).  Since it's only 8 bits, you can only have 254 ARCnet cards | 
|  | 325 | on a network.  DON'T use 0 or 255, since these are reserved (although | 
|  | 326 | neat stuff will probably happen if you DO use them).  By the way, if you | 
|  | 327 | haven't already guessed, don't set this the same as any other ARCnet on | 
|  | 328 | your network! | 
|  | 329 | - Avery's favourite:  3 and 4.  Not that it matters. | 
|  | 330 |  | 
|  | 331 | - There may be ETS1 and ETS2 settings.  These may or may not make a | 
|  | 332 | difference on your card (many manuals call them "reserved"), but are | 
|  | 333 | used to change the delays used when powering up a computer on the | 
|  | 334 | network.  This is only necessary when wiring VERY long range ARCnet | 
|  | 335 | networks, on the order of 4km or so; in any case, the only real | 
|  | 336 | requirement here is that all cards on the network with ETS1 and ETS2 | 
|  | 337 | jumpers have them in the same position.  Chris Hindy <chrish@io.org> | 
|  | 338 | sent in a chart with actual values for this: |

|  | 346 | Make sure you set ETS1 and ETS2 to the SAME VALUE for all cards on your | 
|  | 347 | network. | 
|  | 348 |  | 
|  | 349 | Also, on many cards (not mine, though) there are red and green LED's. | 
|  | 350 | Vojtech Pavlik <vojtech@suse.cz> tells me this is what they mean: | 
|  | 351 | GREEN           RED             Status | 
|  | 352 | -----		---		------ | 
|  | 353 | OFF             OFF             Power off | 
|  | 354 | OFF             Short flashes   Cabling problems (broken cable or not | 
|  | 355 | terminated) | 
|  | 356 | OFF (short)     ON              Card init | 
|  | 357 | ON              ON              Normal state - everything OK, nothing | 
|  | 358 | happens | 
|  | 359 | ON              Long flashes    Data transfer | 
|  | 360 | ON              OFF             Never happens (maybe when wrong ID) | 
|  | 361 |  | 
|  | 362 |  | 
|  | 363 | The following is all the specific information people have sent me about | 
|  | 364 | their own particular ARCnet cards.  It is officially a mess, and contains | 
|  | 365 | huge amounts of duplicated information.  I have no time to fix it.  If you | 
|  | 366 | want to, PLEASE DO!  Just send me a 'diff -u' of all your changes. | 
|  | 367 |  | 
|  | 368 | The model # is listed right above specifics for that card, so you should be | 
|  | 369 | able to use your text viewer's "search" function to find the entry you want. | 
|  | 370 | If you don't KNOW what kind of card you have, try looking through the | 
|  | 371 | various diagrams to see if you can tell. | 
|  | 372 |  | 
|  | 373 | If your model isn't listed and/or has different settings, PLEASE PLEASE | 
|  | 374 | tell me.  I had to figure mine out without the manual, and it WASN'T FUN! | 
|  | 375 |  | 
|  | 376 | Even if your ARCnet model isn't listed, but has the same jumpers as another | 
|  | 377 | model that is, please e-mail me to say so. |

|  | 425 | About the jumpers: On my PC130 there is one more jumper, located near the | 
|  | 426 | cable-connector and it's for changing to star or bus topology; | 
|  | 427 | closed: star - open: bus | 
|  | 428 | On the PC500 are some more jumper-pins, one block labeled with RX,PDN,TXI | 
|  | 429 | and another with ALE,LA17,LA18,LA19 these are undocumented.. |

|  | 444 | PC500/600 have several extra, undocumented pins though. (?) | 
|  | 445 | - PC110 settings were verified by Stephen A. Wood <saw@cebaf.gov> | 
|  | 446 | - Also, the JP- and S-numbers probably don't match your card exactly.  Try | 
|  | 447 | to find jumpers/switches with the same number of settings - it's | 
|  | 448 | probably more reliable. |

|  | 609 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 610 | ------------------- | 
|  | 611 |  | 
|  | 612 | The eight switches in group S2 are used to set the node ID. | 
|  | 613 | These switches work in a way similar to the PC100-series cards; see that | 
|  | 614 | entry for more information. | 
|  | 615 |  | 
|  | 616 |  | 
|  | 617 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 618 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 619 |  | 
|  | 620 | The first three switches in switch group S1 are used to select one | 
|  | 621 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 622 |  | 
|  | 623 |  | 
|  | 624 | Switch | Hex I/O |

|  | 637 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 638 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 639 |  | 
|  | 640 | The memory buffer requires 2K of a 16K block of RAM. The base of this | 
|  | 641 | 16K block can be located in any of eight positions. | 
|  | 642 | Switches 4-6 of switch group S1 select the Base of the 16K block. | 
|  | 643 | Within that 16K address space, the buffer may be assigned any one of four | 
|  | 644 | positions, determined by the offset, switches 7 and 8 of group S1. |

|  | 692 |  | 
|  | 693 | Setting the Timeouts and Interrupt | 
|  | 694 | ---------------------------------- | 
|  | 695 |  | 
|  | 696 | The jumpers labeled EXT1 and EXT2 are used to determine the timeout | 
|  | 697 | parameters. These two jumpers are normally left open. | 
|  | 698 |  | 
|  | 699 | To select a hardware interrupt level set one (only one!) of the jumpers | 
|  | 700 | IRQ2, IRQ3, IRQ4, IRQ5, IRQ7. The Manufacturer's default is IRQ2. | 
|  | 701 |  | 
|  | 702 |  | 
|  | 703 | Configuring the PC130E for Star or Bus Topology | 
|  | 704 | ----------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 705 |  | 
|  | 706 | The single jumper labeled STAR is used to configure the PC130E board for | 
|  | 707 | star or bus topology. | 
|  | 708 | When the jumper is installed, the board may be used in a star network, when | 
|  | 709 | it is removed, the board can be used in a bus topology. | 
|  | 710 |  | 
|  | 711 |  | 
|  | 712 | Diagnostic LEDs | 
|  | 713 | --------------- | 
|  | 714 |  | 
|  | 715 | Two diagnostic LEDs are visible on the rear bracket of the board. | 
|  | 716 | The green LED monitors the network activity: the red one shows the | 
|  | 717 | board activity: |

|  | 736 | ===================================================================== | 
|  | 737 |  | 
|  | 738 | Note: There is another Version of the PC500 called Short Version, which | 
|  | 739 | is different in hard- and software! The most important differences | 
|  | 740 | are: | 
|  | 741 | - The long board has no Shared memory. | 
|  | 742 | - On the long board the selection of the interrupt is done by binary | 
|  | 743 | coded switch, on the short board directly by jumper. | 
|  | 744 |  | 
|  | 745 | [Avery's note: pay special attention to that: the long board HAS NO SHARED | 
|  | 746 | MEMORY.  This means the current Linux-ARCnet driver can't use these cards. | 
|  | 747 | I have obtained a PC500Longboard and will be doing some experiments on it in | 
|  | 748 | the future, but don't hold your breath.  Thanks again to Juergen Seifert for | 
|  | 749 | his advice about this!] |

|  | 817 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 818 | ------------------- | 
|  | 819 |  | 
|  | 820 | The eight switches in group SW3 are used to set the node ID. Each node | 
|  | 821 | attached to the network must have an unique node ID which must be | 
|  | 822 | different from 0. | 
|  | 823 | Switch 1 serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 824 |  | 
|  | 825 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 826 | These values are: | 
|  | 827 |  | 
|  | 828 | Switch | Value |

|  | 901 | Setting the Interrupt | 
|  | 902 | --------------------- | 
|  | 903 |  | 
|  | 904 | Switches seven through ten of switch group SW1 are used to select the | 
|  | 905 | interrupt level. The interrupt level is binary coded, so selections | 
|  | 906 | from 0 to 15 would be possible, but only the following eight values will | 
|  | 907 | be supported: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12. |

|  | 921 |  | 
|  | 922 | Setting the Timeouts | 
|  | 923 | -------------------- | 
|  | 924 |  | 
|  | 925 | The two jumpers JP2 (1-4) are used to determine the timeout parameters. | 
|  | 926 | These two jumpers are normally left open. | 
|  | 927 | Refer to the COM9026 Data Sheet for alternate configurations. | 
|  | 928 |  | 
|  | 929 |  | 
|  | 930 | Configuring the PC500 for Star or Bus Topology | 
|  | 931 | ---------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 932 |  | 
|  | 933 | The single jumper labeled JP6 is used to configure the PC500 board for | 
|  | 934 | star or bus topology. | 
|  | 935 | When the jumper is installed, the board may be used in a star network, when | 
|  | 936 | it is removed, the board can be used in a bus topology. | 
|  | 937 |  | 
|  | 938 |  | 
|  | 939 | Diagnostic LEDs | 
|  | 940 | --------------- | 
|  | 941 |  | 
|  | 942 | Two diagnostic LEDs are visible on the rear bracket of the board. | 
|  | 943 | The green LED monitors the network activity: the red one shows the | 
|  | 944 | board activity: |

|  | 962 | cards. However, I'm sure I got 99% of the settings right. | 
|  | 963 |  | 
|  | 964 | The SMC710 card resembles the PC270 card, but is much more basic (i.e. no | 
|  | 965 | LEDs, RJ11 jacks, etc.) and 8 bit. Here's a little drawing: |

|  | 986 | The row of jumpers at JP1 actually consists of 8 jumpers, (sometimes | 
|  | 987 | labelled) the same as on the PC270, from top to bottom: EXT2, EXT1, ROM, | 
|  | 988 | IRQ7, IRQ5, IRQ4, IRQ3, IRQ2 (gee, wonder what they would do? :-) ) | 
|  | 989 |  | 
|  | 990 | S1 and S2 perform the same function as on the PC270, only their numbers | 
|  | 991 | are swapped (S1 is the nodeaddress, S2 sets IO- and RAM-address). | 
|  | 992 |  | 
|  | 993 | I know it works when connected to a PC110 type ARCnet board. |

|  | 1001 | - from Mathias Katzer <mkatzer@HRZ.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> | 
|  | 1002 | - Marek Michalkiewicz <marekm@i17linuxb.ists.pwr.wroc.pl> says the | 
|  | 1003 | LCS-8830 is slightly different from LCS-8830-T.  These are 8 bit, BUS | 
|  | 1004 | only (the JP0 jumper is hardwired), and BNC only. | 
|  | 1005 |  | 
|  | 1006 | This is a LCS-8830-T made by SMC, I think ('SMC' only appears on one PLCC, | 
|  | 1007 | nowhere else, not even on the few Xeroxed sheets from the manual). |

|  | 1111 | PDI507 (8-bit card) | 
|  | 1112 | -------------------- | 
|  | 1113 | - from Mark Rejhon <mdrejhon@magi.com> (slight modifications by Avery) | 
|  | 1114 | - Avery's note: I think PDI508 cards (but definitely NOT PDI508Plus cards) | 
|  | 1115 | are mostly the same as this.  PDI508Plus cards appear to be mainly | 
|  | 1116 | software-configured. | 
|  | 1117 |  | 
|  | 1118 | Jumpers: | 
|  | 1119 | There is a jumper array at the bottom of the card, near the edge | 
|  | 1120 | connector.  This array is labelled J1.  They control the IRQs and | 
|  | 1121 | something else.  Put only one jumper on the IRQ pins. | 
|  | 1122 |  | 
|  | 1123 | ETS1, ETS2 are for timing on very long distance networks.  See the | 
|  | 1124 | more general information near the top of this file. | 
|  | 1125 |  | 
|  | 1126 | There is a J2 jumper on two pins.  A jumper should be put on them, | 
|  | 1127 | since it was already there when I got the card.  I don't know what | 
|  | 1128 | this jumper is for though. | 
|  | 1129 |  | 
|  | 1130 | There is a two-jumper array for J3.  I don't know what it is for, | 
|  | 1131 | but there were already two jumpers on it when I got the card.  It's | 
|  | 1132 | a six pin grid in a two-by-three fashion.  The jumpers were | 
|  | 1133 | configured as follows: |

|  | 1156 | - If using coax cable in a bus topology the J4 jumper must be removed; | 
|  | 1157 | place it on one pin. | 
|  | 1158 |  | 
|  | 1159 | - If using bus topology with twisted pair wiring move the J3 | 
|  | 1160 | jumpers so they connect the middle pin and the pins closest to the RJ11 | 
|  | 1161 | Connectors.  Also the J4 jumper must be removed; place it on one pin of | 
|  | 1162 | J4 jumper for storage. | 
|  | 1163 |  | 
|  | 1164 | - If using  star topology with twisted pair wiring move the J3 | 
|  | 1165 | jumpers so they connect the middle pin and the pins closest to the RJ11 |

|  | 1168 |  | 
|  | 1169 | DIP Switches: | 
|  | 1170 |  | 
|  | 1171 | The DIP switches accessible on the accessible end of the card while | 
|  | 1172 | it is installed, is used to set the ARCnet address.  There are 8 | 
|  | 1173 | switches.  Use an address from 1 to 254. | 
|  | 1174 |  | 
|  | 1175 | Switch No. | 
|  | 1176 | 12345678	ARCnet address | 
|  | 1177 | ----------------------------------------- | 
|  | 1178 | 00000000	FF  	(Don't use this!) | 
|  | 1179 | 00000001	FE |

|  | 1182 | 11111101	2 | 
|  | 1183 | 11111110	1 | 
|  | 1184 | 11111111	0	(Don't use this!) | 
|  | 1185 |  | 
|  | 1186 | There is another array of eight DIP switches at the top of the | 
|  | 1187 | card.  There are five labelled MS0-MS4 which seem to control the | 
|  | 1188 | memory address, and another three labelled IO0-IO2 which seem to | 
|  | 1189 | control the base I/O address of the card. | 
|  | 1190 |  | 
|  | 1191 | This was difficult to test by trial and error, and the I/O addresses | 
|  | 1192 | are in a weird order.  This was tested by setting the DIP switches, | 
|  | 1193 | rebooting the computer, and attempting to load ARCETHER at various | 
|  | 1194 | addresses (mostly between 0x200 and 0x400).  The address that caused | 
|  | 1195 | the red transmit LED to blink, is the one that I thought works. | 
|  | 1196 |  | 
|  | 1197 | Also, the address 0x3D0 seem to have a special meaning, since the | 
|  | 1198 | ARCETHER packet driver loaded fine, but without the red LED | 
|  | 1199 | blinking.  I don't know what 0x3D0 is for though.  I recommend using | 
|  | 1200 | an address of 0x300 since Windows may not like addresses below | 
|  | 1201 | 0x300. | 
|  | 1202 |  | 
|  | 1203 | IO Switch No. | 
|  | 1204 | 210             I/O address | 
|  | 1205 | ------------------------------- | 
|  | 1206 | 111             0x260 | 
|  | 1207 | 110             0x290 | 
|  | 1208 | 101             0x2E0 | 
|  | 1209 | 100             0x2F0 | 
|  | 1210 | 011             0x300 | 
|  | 1211 | 010             0x350 | 
|  | 1212 | 001             0x380 | 
|  | 1213 | 000             0x3E0 | 
|  | 1214 |  | 
|  | 1215 | The memory switches set a reserved address space of 0x1000 bytes | 
|  | 1216 | (0x100 segment units, or 4k).  For example if I set an address of | 
|  | 1217 | 0xD000, it will use up addresses 0xD000 to 0xD100. | 
|  | 1218 |  | 
|  | 1219 | The memory switches were tested by booting using QEMM386 stealth, | 
|  | 1220 | and using LOADHI to see what address automatically became excluded | 
|  | 1221 | from the upper memory regions, and then attempting to load ARCETHER | 
|  | 1222 | using these addresses. | 
|  | 1223 |  | 
|  | 1224 | I recommend using an ARCnet memory address of 0xD000, and putting | 
|  | 1225 | the EMS page frame at 0xC000 while using QEMM stealth mode.  That | 
|  | 1226 | way, you get contiguous high memory from 0xD100 almost all the way | 
|  | 1227 | the end of the megabyte. | 
|  | 1228 |  | 
|  | 1229 | Memory Switch 0 (MS0) didn't seem to work properly when set to OFF | 
|  | 1230 | on my card.  It could be malfunctioning on my card.  Experiment with | 
|  | 1231 | it ON first, and if it doesn't work, set it to OFF.  (It may be a | 
|  | 1232 | modifier for the 0x200 bit?) |

|  | 1333 |  | 
|  | 1334 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 1335 | ------------------- | 
|  | 1336 |  | 
|  | 1337 | The eight switches in SW2 are used to set the node ID. Each node attached | 
|  | 1338 | to the network must have an unique node ID which must be different from 0. | 
|  | 1339 | Switch 1 (ID0) serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 1340 |  | 
|  | 1341 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 1342 | These values are: | 
|  | 1343 |  | 
|  | 1344 | Switch | Label | Value | 
|  | 1345 | -------|-------|------- | 
|  | 1346 | 1    | ID0   |   1 |

|  | 1374 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 1375 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 1376 |  | 
|  | 1377 | The last three switches in switch block SW1 are used to select one | 
|  | 1378 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 1379 |  | 
|  | 1380 |  | 
|  | 1381 | Switch      | Hex I/O | 
|  | 1382 | 6   7   8  | Address | 
|  | 1383 | ------------|-------- | 
|  | 1384 | ON  ON  ON  |  260 | 
|  | 1385 | OFF ON  ON  |  290 | 
|  | 1386 | ON  OFF ON  |  2E0  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 1387 | OFF OFF ON  |  2F0 | 
|  | 1388 | ON  ON  OFF |  300 | 
|  | 1389 | OFF ON  OFF |  350 | 
|  | 1390 | ON  OFF OFF |  380 | 
|  | 1391 | OFF OFF OFF |  3E0 | 
|  | 1392 |  | 
|  | 1393 |  | 
|  | 1394 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 1395 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 1396 |  | 
|  | 1397 | The memory buffer (RAM) requires 2K. The base of this buffer can be | 
|  | 1398 | located in any of eight positions. The address of the Boot Prom is | 
|  | 1399 | memory base + 8K or memory base + 0x2000. | 
|  | 1400 | Switches 1-5 of switch block SW1 select the Memory Base address. | 
|  | 1401 |  | 
|  | 1402 | Switch              | Hex RAM | Hex ROM | 
|  | 1403 | 1   2   3   4   5  | Address | Address *) | 
|  | 1404 | --------------------|---------|----------- | 
|  | 1405 | ON  ON  ON  ON  ON  |  C0000  |  C2000 | 
|  | 1406 | ON  ON  OFF ON  ON  |  C4000  |  C6000 | 
|  | 1407 | ON  ON  ON  OFF ON  |  CC000  |  CE000 | 
|  | 1408 | ON  ON  OFF OFF ON  |  D0000  |  D2000  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 1409 | ON  ON  ON  ON  OFF |  D4000  |  D6000 | 
|  | 1410 | ON  ON  OFF ON  OFF |  D8000  |  DA000 | 
|  | 1411 | ON  ON  ON  OFF OFF |  DC000  |  DE000 | 
|  | 1412 | ON  ON  OFF OFF OFF |  E0000  |  E2000 | 
|  | 1413 |  | 
|  | 1414 | *) To enable the Boot ROM install the jumper JP1 | 
|  | 1415 |  | 
|  | 1416 | Note: Since the switches 1 and 2 are always set to ON it may be possible | 
|  | 1417 | that they can be used to add an offset of 2K, 4K or 6K to the base | 
|  | 1418 | address, but this feature is not documented in the manual and I | 
|  | 1419 | haven't tested it yet. | 
|  | 1420 |  | 
|  | 1421 |  | 
|  | 1422 | Setting the Interrupt Line | 
|  | 1423 | -------------------------- | 
|  | 1424 |  | 
|  | 1425 | To select a hardware interrupt level install one (only one!) of the jumpers | 
|  | 1426 | JP2, JP3, JP4, JP5, JP6. JP2 is the default. | 
|  | 1427 |  |

|  | 1438 | -------------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 1439 |  | 
|  | 1440 | The jumper JP12 is used to enable the internal terminator. |

|  | 1544 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 1545 | ------------------- | 
|  | 1546 |  | 
|  | 1547 | The eight switches in SW2 are used to set the node ID. Each node attached | 
|  | 1548 | to the network must have an unique node ID which must be different from 0. | 
|  | 1549 | Switch 1 (ID0) serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 1550 |  | 
|  | 1551 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 1552 | These values are: | 
|  | 1553 |  | 
|  | 1554 | Switch | Label | Value | 
|  | 1555 | -------|-------|------- | 
|  | 1556 | 1    | ID0   |   1 | 
|  | 1557 | 2    | ID1   |   2 | 
|  | 1558 | 3    | ID2   |   4 |

|  | 1584 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 1585 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 1586 |  | 
|  | 1587 | The first six switches in switch block SW1 are used to select the I/O Base | 
|  | 1588 | address using the following table: | 
|  | 1589 |  | 
|  | 1590 | Switch        | Hex I/O | 
|  | 1591 | 1   2   3   4   5   6  | Address | 
|  | 1592 | ------------------------|-------- | 
|  | 1593 | OFF ON  ON  OFF OFF ON  |  260 | 
|  | 1594 | OFF ON  OFF ON  ON  OFF |  290 | 
|  | 1595 | OFF ON  OFF OFF OFF ON  |  2E0  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 1596 | OFF ON  OFF OFF OFF OFF |  2F0 | 
|  | 1597 | OFF OFF ON  ON  ON  ON  |  300 | 
|  | 1598 | OFF OFF ON  OFF ON  OFF |  350 | 
|  | 1599 | OFF OFF OFF ON  ON  ON  |  380 | 
|  | 1600 | OFF OFF OFF OFF OFF ON  |  3E0 | 
|  | 1601 |  | 
|  | 1602 | Note: Other IO-Base addresses seem to be selectable, but only the above | 
|  | 1603 | combinations are documented. | 
|  | 1604 |  | 
|  | 1605 |  | 
|  | 1606 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 1607 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 1608 |  | 
|  | 1609 | The switches 7-10 of switch block SW1 are used to select the Memory | 
|  | 1610 | Base address of the RAM (2K) and the PROM. | 
|  | 1611 |  | 
|  | 1612 | Switch          | Hex RAM | Hex ROM | 
|  | 1613 | 7   8   9  10  | Address | Address | 
|  | 1614 | ----------------|---------|----------- | 
|  | 1615 | OFF OFF ON  ON  |  C0000  |  C8000 | 
|  | 1616 | OFF OFF ON  OFF |  D0000  |  D8000 (Default) | 
|  | 1617 | OFF OFF OFF ON  |  E0000  |  E8000 | 
|  | 1618 |  | 
|  | 1619 | Note: Other MEM-Base addresses seem to be selectable, but only the above | 
|  | 1620 | combinations are documented. | 
|  | 1621 |  | 
|  | 1622 |  | 
|  | 1623 | Setting the Interrupt Line | 
|  | 1624 | -------------------------- | 
|  | 1625 |  | 
|  | 1626 | To select a hardware interrupt level install one (only one!) of the jumpers | 
|  | 1627 | JP3 through JP13 using the following table: | 
|  | 1628 |  | 
|  | 1629 | Jumper | IRQ | 
|  | 1630 | -------|----------------- | 
|  | 1631 | 3    |  14 | 
|  | 1632 | 4    |  15 | 
|  | 1633 | 5    |  12 | 
|  | 1634 | 6    |  11 | 
|  | 1635 | 7    |  10 | 
|  | 1636 | 8    |   3 | 
|  | 1637 | 9    |   4 | 
|  | 1638 | 10    |   5 | 
|  | 1639 | 11    |   6 | 
|  | 1640 | 12    |   7 | 
|  | 1641 | 13    |   2 (=9) Default! | 
|  | 1642 |  | 
|  | 1643 | Note:  - Do not use JP11=IRQ6, it may conflict with your Floppy Disk | 
|  | 1644 | Controller | 
|  | 1645 | - Use JP3=IRQ14 only, if you don't have an IDE-, MFM-, or RLL- | 
|  | 1646 | Hard Disk, it may conflict with their controllers | 
|  | 1647 |  | 
|  | 1648 |  | 
|  | 1649 | Setting the Timeout Parameters | 
|  | 1650 | ------------------------------ | 
|  | 1651 |  | 
|  | 1652 | The jumpers labeled JP1 and JP2 are used to determine the timeout | 
|  | 1653 | parameters. These two jumpers are normally left open. |

|  | 1808 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 1809 | ------------------- | 
|  | 1810 |  | 
|  | 1811 | The eight switches in SW2 are used to set the node ID. Each node attached | 
|  | 1812 | to the network must have an unique node ID which must not be 0. | 
|  | 1813 | Switch 1 (ID0) serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 1814 |  | 
|  | 1815 | Setting one of the switches to OFF means "1", ON means "0". | 
|  | 1816 |  | 
|  | 1817 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 1818 | These values are: | 
|  | 1819 |  | 
|  | 1820 | Switch | Value | 
|  | 1821 | -------|------- | 
|  | 1822 | 1    |   1 |

|  | 1828 | 7    |  64 | 
|  | 1829 | 8    | 128 | 
|  | 1830 |  | 
|  | 1831 | Don't set this to 0 or 255; these values are reserved. | 
|  | 1832 |  | 
|  | 1833 |  | 
|  | 1834 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 1835 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 1836 |  | 
|  | 1837 | The switches 1 to 6 of switch block SW1 are used to select one | 
|  | 1838 | of 32 possible I/O Base addresses using the following tables | 
|  | 1839 |  | 
|  | 1840 | | Hex | 
|  | 1841 | Switch | Value | 
|  | 1842 | -------|------- | 
|  | 1843 | 1    | 200 | 
|  | 1844 | 2    | 100 | 
|  | 1845 | 3    |  80 | 
|  | 1846 | 4    |  40 | 
|  | 1847 | 5    |  20 | 
|  | 1848 | 6    |  10 | 
|  | 1849 |  | 
|  | 1850 | The I/O address is sum of all switches set to "1". Remember that | 
|  | 1851 | the I/O address space bellow 0x200 is RESERVED for mainboard, so | 
|  | 1852 | switch 1 should be ALWAYS SET TO OFF. | 
|  | 1853 |  | 
|  | 1854 |  | 
|  | 1855 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 1856 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 1857 |  | 
|  | 1858 | The memory buffer (RAM) requires 2K. The base of this buffer can be | 
|  | 1859 | located in any of sixteen positions. However, the addresses below | 
|  | 1860 | A0000 are likely to cause system hang because there's main RAM. | 
|  | 1861 |  | 
|  | 1862 | Jumpers 7-10 of switch block SW1 select the Memory Base address. | 
|  | 1863 |  | 
|  | 1864 | Switch          | Hex RAM | 
|  | 1865 | 7   8   9  10  | Address | 
|  | 1866 | ----------------|--------- |

|  | 1868 | OFF OFF OFF ON  |  E0000 | 
|  | 1869 | OFF OFF ON  OFF |  D0000 | 
|  | 1870 | OFF OFF ON  ON  |  C0000 (conflicts with video BIOS) | 
|  | 1871 | OFF ON  OFF OFF |  B0000 (conflicts with mono video) | 
|  | 1872 | OFF ON  OFF ON  |  A0000 (conflicts with graphics) | 
|  | 1873 |  | 
|  | 1874 |  | 
|  | 1875 | Setting the Interrupt Line | 
|  | 1876 | -------------------------- | 
|  | 1877 |  | 
|  | 1878 | Jumpers 1-5 of the jumper block J1 control the IRQ level. ON means | 
|  | 1879 | shorted, OFF means open. | 
|  | 1880 |  | 
|  | 1881 | Jumper              |  IRQ | 
|  | 1882 | 1   2   3   4   5   | |

|  | 1884 | ON  OFF OFF OFF OFF |  7 | 
|  | 1885 | OFF ON  OFF OFF OFF |  5 | 
|  | 1886 | OFF OFF ON  OFF OFF |  4 | 
|  | 1887 | OFF OFF OFF ON  OFF |  3 | 
|  | 1888 | OFF OFF OFF OFF ON  |  2 | 
|  | 1889 |  | 
|  | 1890 |  | 
|  | 1891 | Unknown jumpers & sockets | 
|  | 1892 | ------------------------- | 
|  | 1893 |  | 
|  | 1894 | I know nothing about these. I just guess that J16&J17 are timeout | 
|  | 1895 | jumpers and maybe one of J18-J21 selects ROM. Also J6-J10 and | 
|  | 1896 | J11-J15 are connecting IRQ2-7 to some pins on the UFSs. I can't | 
|  | 1897 | guess the purpose. |

|  | 1995 |  | 
|  | 1996 | The memory buffer (RAM) requires 2K. The base of this buffer can be | 
|  | 1997 | located in any of eight positions. The address of the Boot Prom is | 
|  | 1998 | memory base + 0x2000. |

|  | 2090 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 2091 | ------------------- | 
|  | 2092 |  | 
|  | 2093 | The eight switches in SW2 are used to set the node ID. Each node attached to | 
|  | 2094 | the network must have an unique node ID which must not be 0.  Switch 1 (ID0) | 
|  | 2095 | serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 2096 |  | 
|  | 2097 | Setting one of the switches to Off means "1", On means "0". | 
|  | 2098 |  | 
|  | 2099 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 2100 | These values are: | 
|  | 2101 |  | 
|  | 2102 | Switch | Label | Value | 
|  | 2103 | -------|-------|------- | 
|  | 2104 | 1    | ID0   |   1 |

|  | 2107 | 4    | ID3   |   8 | 
|  | 2108 | 5    | ID4   |  16 | 
|  | 2109 | 6    | ID5   |  32 |

|  | 2111 | 8    | ID7   | 128 | 
|  | 2112 |  | 
|  | 2113 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 2114 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 2115 |  | 
|  | 2116 | The last three switches in switch block SW1 are used to select one | 
|  | 2117 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table: | 
|  | 2118 |  | 
|  | 2119 |  | 
|  | 2120 | Switch      | Hex I/O | 
|  | 2121 | 6   7   8  | Address | 
|  | 2122 | ------------|-------- | 
|  | 2123 | ON  ON  ON  |  260  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 2124 | OFF ON  ON  |  290 | 
|  | 2125 | ON  OFF ON  |  2E0 | 
|  | 2126 | OFF OFF ON  |  2F0 | 
|  | 2127 | ON  ON  OFF |  300 | 
|  | 2128 | OFF ON  OFF |  350 | 
|  | 2129 | ON  OFF OFF |  380 | 
|  | 2130 | OFF OFF OFF |  3E0 | 
|  | 2131 |  | 
|  | 2132 |  | 
|  | 2133 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 2134 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 2135 |  | 
|  | 2136 | The memory buffer (RAM) requires 2K. The base of this buffer can be | 
|  | 2137 | located in any of eight positions. The address of the Boot Prom is | 
|  | 2138 | memory base + 0x2000. | 
|  | 2139 | Jumpers 3-5 of switch block SW1 select the Memory Base address. | 
|  | 2140 |  | 
|  | 2141 | Switch              | Hex RAM | Hex ROM | 
|  | 2142 | 1   2   3   4   5  | Address | Address *) | 
|  | 2143 | --------------------|---------|----------- | 
|  | 2144 | ON  ON  ON  ON  ON  |  C0000  |  C2000 | 
|  | 2145 | ON  ON  OFF ON  ON  |  C4000  |  C6000  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 2146 | ON  ON  ON  OFF ON  |  CC000  |  CE000 | 
|  | 2147 | ON  ON  OFF OFF ON  |  D0000  |  D2000 | 
|  | 2148 | ON  ON  ON  ON  OFF |  D4000  |  D6000 | 
|  | 2149 | ON  ON  OFF ON  OFF |  D8000  |  DA000 | 
|  | 2150 | ON  ON  ON  OFF OFF |  DC000  |  DE000 | 
|  | 2151 | ON  ON  OFF OFF OFF |  E0000  |  E2000 | 
|  | 2152 |  | 
|  | 2153 | *) To enable the Boot ROM short the jumper J2. | 
|  | 2154 |  | 
|  | 2155 | The jumpers 1 and 2 probably add 0x0800 and 0x1000 to RAM address. | 
|  | 2156 |  | 
|  | 2157 |  | 
|  | 2158 | Setting the Interrupt Line | 
|  | 2159 | -------------------------- | 
|  | 2160 |  | 
|  | 2161 | Jumpers 1-5 of the jumper block J1 control the IRQ level.  ON means | 
|  | 2162 | shorted, OFF means open. | 
|  | 2163 |  | 
|  | 2164 | Jumper              |  IRQ |

|  | 2171 | OFF OFF OFF OFF ON  |  7 | 
|  | 2172 |  | 
|  | 2173 |  | 
|  | 2174 | Setting the Timeout Parameters | 
|  | 2175 | ------------------------------ | 
|  | 2176 |  | 
|  | 2177 | The jumpers J3 are used to set the timeout parameters. These two | 
|  | 2178 | jumpers are normally left open. |

|  | 2251 |  | 
|  | 2252 |  | 
|  | 2253 | There is a DIP-switch with 8 switches, used to set the shared memory address | 
|  | 2254 | to be used. The first 6 switches set the address, the 7th doesn't have any | 
|  | 2255 | function, and the 8th switch is used to select "compatible" or "enhanced". | 
|  | 2256 | When I got my two cards, one of them had this switch set to "enhanced". That | 
|  | 2257 | card didn't work at all, it wasn't even recognized by the driver. The other | 
|  | 2258 | card had this switch set to "compatible" and it behaved absolutely normally. I | 
|  | 2259 | guess that the switch on one of the cards, must have been changed accidentally | 
|  | 2260 | when the card was taken out of its former host. The question remains | 
|  | 2261 | unanswered, what is the purpose of the "enhanced" position? | 
|  | 2262 |  | 
|  | 2263 | [Avery's note: "enhanced" probably either disables shared memory (use IO | 
|  | 2264 | ports instead) or disables IO ports (use memory addresses instead).  This | 
|  | 2265 | varies by the type of card involved.  I fail to see how either of these | 
|  | 2266 | enhance anything.  Send me more detailed information about this mode, or | 
|  | 2267 | just use "compatible" mode instead.] |

|  | 2277 | [Avery's note: these don't work with my driver for some reason.  These cards | 
|  | 2278 | SEEM to have settings similar to the PDI508Plus, which is | 
|  | 2279 | software-configured and doesn't work with my driver either.  The "Waterloo | 
|  | 2280 | chip" is a boot PROM, probably designed specifically for the University of | 
|  | 2281 | Waterloo.  If you have any further information about this card, please |

|  | 2283 |  | 
|  | 2284 | The probe has not been able to detect the card on any of the J2 settings, |

|  | 2384 | I have named this ARCnet card "NONAME", since there is no name of any | 
|  | 2385 | manufacturer on the Installation manual nor on the shipping box. The only | 
|  | 2386 | hint to the existence of a manufacturer at all is written in copper, | 
|  | 2387 | it is "Made in Taiwan" |

|  | 2434 |  | 
|  | 2435 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 2436 | ------------------- | 
|  | 2437 |  | 
|  | 2438 | The eight switches in group SW1 are used to set the node ID. | 
|  | 2439 | Each node attached to the network must have an unique node ID which | 
|  | 2440 | must be different from 0. | 
|  | 2441 | Switch 8 serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 2442 |  | 
|  | 2443 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 2444 | These values are: | 
|  | 2445 |  | 
|  | 2446 | Switch | Value | 
|  | 2447 | -------|------- | 
|  | 2448 | 8    |   1 |

|  | 2475 |  | 
|  | 2476 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 2477 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 2478 |  | 
|  | 2479 | The first three switches in switch group SW2 are used to select one | 
|  | 2480 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 2481 |  | 
|  | 2482 | Switch      | Hex I/O | 
|  | 2483 | 1   2   3  | Address | 
|  | 2484 | ------------|-------- | 
|  | 2485 | ON  ON  ON  |  260 | 
|  | 2486 | ON  ON  OFF |  290 | 
|  | 2487 | ON  OFF ON  |  2E0  (Manufacturer's default) | 
|  | 2488 | ON  OFF OFF |  2F0 | 
|  | 2489 | OFF ON  ON  |  300 | 
|  | 2490 | OFF ON  OFF |  350 | 
|  | 2491 | OFF OFF ON  |  380 | 
|  | 2492 | OFF OFF OFF |  3E0 | 
|  | 2493 |  | 
|  | 2494 |  | 
|  | 2495 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 2496 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 2497 |  | 
|  | 2498 | The memory buffer requires 2K of a 16K block of RAM. The base of this | 
|  | 2499 | 16K block can be located in any of eight positions. | 
|  | 2500 | Switches 4-6 of switch group SW2 select the Base of the 16K block. | 
|  | 2501 | Within that 16K address space, the buffer may be assigned any one of four | 
|  | 2502 | positions, determined by the offset, switches 7 and 8 of group SW2. | 
|  | 2503 |  | 
|  | 2504 | Switch     | Hex RAM | Hex ROM | 
|  | 2505 | 4 5 6  7 8 | Address | Address *) |

|  | 2547 | *) To enable the 8K Boot PROM install the jumper ROM. | 
|  | 2548 | The default is jumper ROM not installed. | 
|  | 2549 |  | 
|  | 2550 |  | 
|  | 2551 | Setting Interrupt Request Lines (IRQ) | 
|  | 2552 | ------------------------------------- | 
|  | 2553 |  | 
|  | 2554 | To select a hardware interrupt level set one (only one!) of the jumpers | 
|  | 2555 | IRQ2, IRQ3, IRQ4, IRQ5 or IRQ7. The manufacturer's default is IRQ2. | 
|  | 2556 |  | 
|  | 2557 |  | 
|  | 2558 | Setting the Timeouts | 
|  | 2559 | -------------------- | 
|  | 2560 |  | 
|  | 2561 | The two jumpers labeled ET1 and ET2 are used to determine the timeout | 
|  | 2562 | parameters (response and reconfiguration time). Every node in a network | 
|  | 2563 | must be set to the same timeout values. | 
|  | 2564 |  | 
|  | 2565 | ET1 ET2 | Response Time (us) | Reconfiguration Time (ms) | 
|  | 2566 | --------|--------------------|-------------------------- | 
|  | 2567 | Off Off |        78          |          840   (Default) | 
|  | 2568 | Off On  |       285          |         1680 | 
|  | 2569 | On  Off |       563          |         1680 | 
|  | 2570 | On  On  |      1130          |         1680 | 
|  | 2571 |  | 
|  | 2572 | On means jumper installed, Off means jumper not installed |

|  | 2575 | NONAME 16-BIT ARCNET | 
|  | 2576 | ==================== | 
|  | 2577 |  | 
|  | 2578 | The manual of my 8-Bit NONAME ARCnet Card contains another description | 
|  | 2579 | of a 16-Bit Coax / Twisted Pair Card. This description is incomplete, | 
|  | 2580 | because there are missing two pages in the manual booklet. (The table | 
|  | 2581 | of contents reports pages ... 2-9, 2-11, 2-12, 3-1, ... but inside | 
|  | 2582 | the booklet there is a different way of counting ... 2-9, 2-10, A-1, | 
|  | 2583 | (empty page), 3-1, ..., 3-18, A-1 (again), A-2) | 
|  | 2584 | Also the picture of the board layout is not as good as the picture of | 
|  | 2585 | 8-Bit card, because there isn't any letter like "SW1" written to the | 
|  | 2586 | picture. | 
|  | 2587 | Should somebody have such a board, please feel free to complete this | 
|  | 2588 | description or to send a mail to me! |

|  | 2624 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 2625 | ------------------- | 
|  | 2626 |  | 
|  | 2627 | The eight switches in group SW2 are used to set the node ID. | 
|  | 2628 | Each node attached to the network must have an unique node ID which | 
|  | 2629 | must be different from 0. | 
|  | 2630 | Switch 8 serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 2631 |  | 
|  | 2632 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 2633 | These values are: | 
|  | 2634 |  | 
|  | 2635 | Switch | Value |

|  | 2665 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 2666 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 2667 |  | 
|  | 2668 | The first three switches in switch group SW1 are used to select one | 
|  | 2669 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 2670 |  | 
|  | 2671 | Switch      | Hex I/O |

|  | 2682 |  | 
|  | 2683 |  | 
|  | 2684 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 2685 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 2686 |  | 
|  | 2687 | The memory buffer requires 2K of a 16K block of RAM. The base of this | 
|  | 2688 | 16K block can be located in any of eight positions. | 
|  | 2689 | Switches 6-8 of switch group SW1 select the Base of the 16K block. | 
|  | 2690 | Within that 16K address space, the buffer may be assigned any one of four | 
|  | 2691 | positions, determined by the offset, switches 4 and 5 of group SW1. |

|  | 2845 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 2846 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 2847 |  | 
|  | 2848 | The last three switches in switch block SW1 are used to select one | 
|  | 2849 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 2850 |  |

|  | 2863 |  | 
|  | 2864 |  | 
|  | 2865 | Setting the Base Memory (RAM) buffer Address | 
|  | 2866 | -------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 2867 |  | 
|  | 2868 | The memory buffer (RAM) requires 2K. The base of this buffer can be | 
|  | 2869 | located in any of eight positions. The address of the Boot Prom is | 
|  | 2870 | memory base + 0x2000. | 
|  | 2871 | Jumpers 3-5 of jumper block SW1 select the Memory Base address. | 
|  | 2872 |  | 
|  | 2873 | Switch              | Hex RAM | Hex ROM | 
|  | 2874 | 1   2   3   4   5  | Address | Address *) |

|  | 2884 |  | 
|  | 2885 | *) To enable the Boot ROM set the jumper 8 of jumper block SW3 to position ON. | 
|  | 2886 |  | 
|  | 2887 | The jumpers 1 and 2 probably add 0x0800, 0x1000 and 0x1800 to RAM adders. | 
|  | 2888 |  | 
|  | 2889 | Setting the Interrupt Line | 
|  | 2890 | -------------------------- | 
|  | 2891 |  | 
|  | 2892 | Jumpers 1-5 of the jumper block SW3 control the IRQ level. |

|  | 2905 | ------------------------------ | 
|  | 2906 |  | 
|  | 2907 | The jumpers 6-7 of the jumper block SW3 are used to determine the timeout | 
|  | 2908 | parameters. These two jumpers are normally left in the OFF position. |

|  | 2963 | SW1: Timeouts, Interrupt and ROM | 
|  | 2964 | --------------------------------- | 
|  | 2965 |  | 
|  | 2966 | To select a hardware interrupt level set one (only one!) of the dip switches | 
|  | 2967 | up (on) SW1...(switches 1-5) | 
|  | 2968 | IRQ3, IRQ4, IRQ5, IRQ7, IRQ2. The Manufacturer's default is IRQ2. | 
|  | 2969 |  | 
|  | 2970 | The switches on SW1 labeled EXT1 (switch 6) and EXT2 (switch 7) | 
|  | 2971 | are used to determine the timeout parameters. These two dip switches | 
|  | 2972 | are normally left off (down). | 
|  | 2973 |  | 
|  | 2974 | To enable the 8K Boot PROM position SW1 switch 8 on (UP) labeled ROM. | 
|  | 2975 | The default is jumper ROM not installed. | 
|  | 2976 |  | 
|  | 2977 |  | 
|  | 2978 | Setting the I/O Base Address | 
|  | 2979 | ---------------------------- | 
|  | 2980 |  | 
|  | 2981 | The last three switches in switch group SW2 are used to select one | 
|  | 2982 | of eight possible I/O Base addresses using the following table | 
|  | 2983 |  | 
|  | 2984 |  | 
|  | 2985 | Switch | Hex I/O |

|  | 2996 |  | 
|  | 2997 |  | 
|  | 2998 | Setting the Base Memory Address (RAM & ROM) | 
|  | 2999 | ------------------------------------------- | 
|  | 3000 |  | 
|  | 3001 | The memory buffer requires 2K of a 16K block of RAM. The base of this | 
|  | 3002 | 16K block can be located in any of eight positions. | 
|  | 3003 | Switches 1-3 of switch group SW2 select the Base of the 16K block. | 
|  | 3004 | (0 = DOWN, 1 = UP) | 
|  | 3005 | I could, however, only verify two settings... | 
|  | 3006 |  |

|  | 3019 |  | 
|  | 3020 | Setting the Node ID | 
|  | 3021 | ------------------- | 
|  | 3022 |  | 
|  | 3023 | The eight switches in group SW3 are used to set the node ID. | 
|  | 3024 | Each node attached to the network must have an unique node ID which | 
|  | 3025 | must be different from 0. | 
|  | 3026 | Switch 1 serves as the least significant bit (LSB). | 
|  | 3027 | switches in the DOWN position are OFF (0) and in the UP position are ON (1) | 
|  | 3028 |  | 
|  | 3029 | The node ID is the sum of the values of all switches set to "1" | 
|  | 3030 | These values are: | 
|  | 3031 | Switch | Value | 
|  | 3032 | -------|------- | 
|  | 3033 | 1    |   1 | 
|  | 3034 | 2    |   2 |
