Hardware Installation 1-3

HotSwap

This card supports HotSwap on a PC Card computer that is running

Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 3.x/MS-DOS using Card and Socket

Services. This feature allows the PRO/100 PC Card to be removed from

the computer, temporarily replaced with another type of PC card, then

reinserted without loss of the local area network connection.

Power Management Suspend/Resume

Power management features such as suspend/resume are supported by the

PRO/100 PC Card on PCMCIA systems running Windows 95 or Win-

dows NT, or Windows 3.x/MS-DOS using Card and Socket Services. This

means that when the computer enters a reduced power or power saving

mode, an ongoing local area network connection will remain active for the

period of time allowed by the network operating system

Hardware Installation

Note

Hardware installation requirements may vary with different

operating systems. For example, if your system is configured for

automatic detection of the card (for example, under Windows

95), the computer should be ON and standard operating

software loaded when the card is inserted. For installation

instructions specific to your particular environment, see the

appropriate chapter: Chapter 2. Installation with Windows 95,

Chapter 3. Installation with Windows NT, and Chapter 4.

Installation with Windows 3.x/MS-DOS.

The PRO/100 PC Card is compatible with Type II PC Card slots. The

hardware installation procedures outlined here are typical. Installation and

removal procedures vary on different PC Card-capable computers and

under different operating systems.

Unpacking and Inspection

After opening the PRO/100 PC Card box, verify that all parts are included

and have not been damaged during transportation. Retain the packing

materials.
