Quatech QSP-100 - Manual (Page 13)

1.1.1.6Example 6
DEVICE = C:\QSP-100\QSP100CL.SYS (b300,i5) ( ) (i10)
In example 6, the three command line arguments of example 5 have been re-arranged. The
Client Driver will first attempt to configure a QSP-100 inserted into any socket with a base
address of 300H and IRQ 5. If address 300H or IRQ 5 is unavailable, the Client Driver will
proceed to the second command line argument and attempt to configure the card with a base
address and IRQ assigned by Card and Socket Services. Since the second command line
argument includes all available address and IRQ resources, the third command line argument will
never be reached by the Client Driver. It is the user's responsibility to place the command line
arguments in a logical order.
1.1.1.7Example 7
DEVICE = C:\QSP-100\QSP100CL.SYS (s0,b300,i5) (s1,b340,i10)
The type of configuration shown in example 7 may be desirable in systems where more than one
QSP-100 is to be installed. In this example, the Client Driver will attempt to configure a
QSP-100 inserted into socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. If the QSP-100 is
inserted into socket 1, the Client Driver will attempt to configure it with base address 340H and
IRQ 10. This allows the user to force the QSP-100's address and IRQ settings to be socket
specific which may simplify cable connections and software development. As in the previous
examples, however, if the requested address or interrupt resources are not available, the QSP-100
will not be configured.
