1-4 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

Point Enablers

Windows NT currently uses a point enabler called PCMCIA.SYS, which currently ships with Windows NT. OS/2 requires Card Services.

Point enablers are small programs that provide an interface directly to the PC Card controller; therefore, they must be written to support a particular type of controller. For the 3C389 PC Card, there are point enablers for the Intel chip (most PCs) and for the chip installed in the Toshiba 3300SL.

In the DOS environment only, you have the option of using these point enablers instead of Card and Socket Services.

Two point enablers are supplied for this PC Card:

■ POINTTR.EXE—For PCs with Intel PCMCIA controllers,

including the IBM ThinkPad, Toshiba 4500 and later, and many other makes.

■ TOSHTR.EXE–For the Toshiba T3300SL.

When using the point enabler, it is vitally important that you make certain that the system resources used by the PC Card are different from and do not conﬂict with the system resources and any other PC Cards installed in your PC.

Advantages

Enablers consume no memory—they remove themselves after conﬁguring the PC Card.

Disadvantages

You must specify the slot number; the point enabler will enable only that slot. Therefore, the PC Card must always be in a speciﬁc slot.

In some PCs, the slot may not be switched off when the PC is in suspend mode, so the PC Card will continue to consume power.

When conﬁguring two or more PC Cards, you must allocate memory and interrupt resources manually.

Socket Services

This is a BIOS-type interface that provides a way to gain access to the PC Card sockets (slots) of a PC. It identiﬁes how many sockets your PC has and detects the insertion or removal of a PC Card while the PC is switched on. It has an interface to Card Services. Socket Services is part of the PCMCIA Speciﬁcation.

The Socket Services device driver is usually provided by the manufacturer of the PC, because the driver must understand the PC's BIOS and PCMCIA controller.

The Socket Services interface enabler shipped on TokenDisk diskette #2 is TOKENRNG.EXE. It will not work with Socket Services 2.0 or higher.

The ﬁle TOKENRNG.EXE is an MSDOS Socket Services 1.01 interface enabler. It uses the Socket Services that is included in some PCs to conﬁgure the socket and PC Card. It is used on machines with DATABOOK PC Card controllers that support the Socket Services 1.01 interface and not Card Services.

Socket Services

1-5

Card Services

This is a software management interface that allows system resources (such as memory, interrupts, slots, and I/O ports) to be allocated automatically when Socket Services has detected that a PC Card has been inserted.

Client drivers call Card Services to allocate and de-allocate system resources. When Socket Services detects an insertion or removal of a PC Card, it sends notiﬁcation to Card Services. Card Services then notiﬁes its registered client drivers, such as IBMTOKCS.OS2, that they should allocate or de-allocate resources.

1-6 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

If the installation program detects Card and Socket Services in your PC, it will default to Autoset mode. Autoset mode allows your LAN driver to negotiate with Card Services for memory space and interrupts. This helps to prevent conﬂicts with other PC Cards that are installed in your PC; however, you will not know exactly what memory addresses and interrupts have been given to you.

Card Services requires Socket Services. The Card Services interface is usually provided with the operating system.

Advantages

■ Ability to insert and remove PC Cards without PC

reconﬁguration and without damaging the electrical contacts.

■ Automatic allocation of system resources.

■ When used with your token ring software in Autoset

mode, automatic conﬁguration of your PC Card occurs.

Disadvantage

■ Stay-resident program that uses system memory. The

amount varies according to the type of PC Card support and the drivers used.

The ﬁle CS20TOK.EXE is a DOS Card Services 2.00 interface enabler shipped on TokenDisk diskette #2. It uses the Card Services interface to conﬁgure the socket and the PC Card. It is used when the token ring device driver is not a Card Services client driver and a Card Services environment is desired. It works with DOS Card Services

2.00 and higher.

Super Client Drivers

Many notebook PC vendors are providing customers with super client drivers that can enable many different PC Cards. PC-DOS 6.1 includes one called PCMSCD.EXE, for example.

They are best used for modems and other PC Cards that do not have a Card Services client driver of their own. If you use a super client driver, try to disable support for the PC Card and use the 3Com client driver. 3Com drivers have been written to take advantage of Card Services. Look at the documentation for your super client driver to ﬁnd out whether you can disable token ring support.

Card Services Enabler

If you want to use a token ring device driver that does not have built-in Card Services support on a system that uses Card Services, CS20TOK.EXE is supplied. This program is a Card Services Enabler that uses Card and Socket Services to conﬁgure the 3C389 PC Card. As with other enablers, you must specify the resources desired for the PC Card, and they must agree with the settings of the token ring device driver for the system to work correctly.

Super Client Drivers

1-7

Card and Socket Services Versus Point Enablers

In principle, Card and Socket Services is the better method of connection because it allows you to insert or remove PC Cards from any slot as you want, even while the PC is switched on (hot-swapping) and it automatically allocates resources like memory, I/O ports, interrupt levels, and slots.

Point Enablers, two of which are provided with the PC Card, are popular because they remove themselves from memory after having been loaded—as opposed to the 30-40 KB needed for Card and Socket Services.

1-8 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

For point enablers, you have to specify the slot in which a particular PC Card will be used and you have to specify memory locations, interrupt levels, and other parameters. This is not difﬁcult unless you use several PC Cards at different times, in which case you need to make certain that what you specify does not conﬂict with any other PC Cards installed in your PC.

Autoset Mode

Card and Socket Services turns out to be most helpful when you have a number of PC Cards installed in your PC. If the installation program detects Card and Socket Services in your PC, it will default to Autoset mode. Autoset mode allows your LAN driver to negotiate with Card and Socket Services for memory space and interrupts every time you switch on your PC. This helps to prevent conﬂicts with other PC Cards that are installed in your PC; however, you will not know exactly what memory addresses and interrupts you are using.
