Sources of Information

This guide gives the instructions for installation of a single AT-2450 PCI
Ethernet Network Adapter Card in a Microsoft Windows environment.
More information is available for other applications of the adapter card.

SETUP24 program—The CardAssistant diskette contains text files
with installation and configuration information for each
environment. Use the program SETUP24.EXE to find the
information you need for your situation. (To view information
files, insert the CardAssistant diskette in the floppy drive and type

a:\setup24

.)

If you are using the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card in
different environment refer to

“Advanced Topics” on page 7 of this guide.

Preparing for Installation

These instructions assume the computer operating system is installe
according to your computer’s documentation. For the majority of appli-
cations, installing the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card
involves plugging the adapter card into a PCI slot in your computer and
installing the driver software. The driver files for the AT-2450 PCI Ether-
net Network Adapter Card are found on the Allied Telesyn CardAssistant
diskette, which you will be prompted to insert into the floppy drive.

Install the Adapter Card

Warning—High voltages inside the computer present a safety hazard. Make
sure the power is off before removing the cover. This LAN adapter card is for
use only with IBM or compatible UL-listed personal computers that have
installation instructions detailing installation of adapter card-cage accesso-
ries. Installation should be performed with precautions to prevent damage
to static-sensitive components.
Follow your computer’s instruction manual for specific information on
installing peripheral devices in your computer.
Once the adapter card is seated in a PCI slot and the computer’s cover is
back on, plug in the cable, turn on the power, and reboot into Windows.

Important cable considerations: AT-2450F

The cable must comply with the appropriate IEEE 802.3 10BASE-F stan-
dard for 62.5/125 µm multi-mode fiber cable. The cable between the
computer and the hub must be less than 2000 meters long for full-duple
operation and 412 meters long for half-duplex operation. The transmit
circuit of the adapter card is connected to the receive circuit of the hub
and vice versa.

Check your Windows version

The Allied Telesyn AT-2450 CardAssistant diskette provides drivers for
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT and version 3.11 of Windows
for Workgroups. If you don’t know your Windows version, open the
Microsoft Windows System Control Panel. Under the General tab of the
System Properties dialog box, note your System release number. Pick the
driver you need from the following table so that you can point Windows
to the right directory on the CardAssistant diskette during installation.

Install the Drivers

Windows 95 or Windows 98

From the Windows version table above, determine whether you need the
NDIS3 driver or the NDIS4 driver. Install the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Net-
work Adapter Card and start Windows. The New Hardware Found dialog
box appears, and you are prompted for the driver.
Insert the CardAssistant diskette, and direct Windows to the location of
the driver: type

a:\

for the NDIS4 driver and a:\ndis3 for the NDIS3

driver.
Make sure Allied Telesyn AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card
appears in the driver found dialog box. Follow the Windows instructions,
supplying Windows files as needed. Windows prompts you to restart the
computer. You are ready to access your network.

Windows NT

With the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card installed and
Windows NT started, you are ready to install the driver.

1.

Open the add adapter dialog box as follows:
NT 4.x—double-click the Network icon in the Control panel.
Then select the Adapters tab and click the Add button.
NT 3.5x—open the Main program group by double-clicking its
icon; then double-click the Control Panel icon, double-click the
Network icon, and click Add Adapter from the Network box.

2.

Insert the AT-2450 CardAssistant diskette into your floppy drive.
Choose install from manufacturer's diskette as follows:
NT 4.x—click the Have Disk button in the Select Network Adapter
pop-up window. In the text field of the dialog box, type:

a:\

and

choose OK.
NT3.5x—choose <OTHER> REQUIRES DISK from Manufacturer
in the Network Adapter Card drop-down list. Then click Continue.
In the text field of the dialog box, type:

a:\ndis3

and choose

OK.

3.

Verify that Allied Telesyn AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter
Card
appears in the Select OEM option dialog box and choose OK.

4.

In the Network Settings dialog box, verify that Allied Telesyn
AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card
appears in the
Installed Adapter Cards list. If you wish, you can configure net-
work protocols you will be using for network communications.
Select the protocols used on your network, and when you are
done, click OK (Close in Windows NT 4.0).

Windows for Workgroups (WFW) 3.11

With the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card installed, start
Windows for Workgroups. You are ready to install the driver.

1.

From the Network group in Program Manager, choose Network
Setup
.

2.

In the Network Setup dialog box, choose Networks.

3.

In the Networks dialog box, verify that Install Microsoft Windows
Network
is selected. Then choose OK.

drive. In the text box of the Install Driver dialog box, choose OK.

14. From the Windows Setup dialog box, choose Restart Computer.

This completes the installation. You are ready to access your network.

The Configuration and Diagnostics Utility: SETUP24

In PCI Ethernet adapter cards, most operating parameters are under
PCI-bus control. The Allied Telesyn SETUP24 configuration and diag-
nostics program allows you to:

View the configuration

Run diagnostic tests on the EEPROM, on adapter card/computer
communications, and on network communications

View context-sensitive configuration and diagnostics help

Switch between full- and half-duplex (requires a full-duplex hub;
default is half-duplex) or force speed (default is auto detect)

View configuration-information files about many different
network operating systems

Although not required for operation, it’s a good idea to run diagnostic
tests every time you install an adapter; first test the adapter card off the
network, then again after attaching it to the network. If you are installing
the AT-2450 PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card in a network operating
system not covered in this guide, you also may wish to consult one of the
information files available through SETUP24.
