2. Plug the 15 pin connector into the 15 pin socket of
the PC card. On the other end of the 15-pin cable,
leave the RJ-45 network cable exposed until the
LAN connection is made; hardware installation is
now complete. The MT10100ZLX/E is powered di­rectly from the PC.

3. Connect the MT10100ZLX/E to the network (LAN)
using the bundled RJ-45 (8-pin) plug.

For operation in a 100Mbps (100Base-TX) Ethernet
network, a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
cable should be used to connect between media cou­pler and 100Mbps hub or switch.
For operation in a 10Mbps (10Base-T) Ethernet net­work, a Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP cable could be used to
connect between the media coupler and a 10Mbps hub
or switch. Speak to your Network Administrator for
more details.

*: Removal of the MT10100ZLX/E from a notebook
computer is contingent upon notebook computer design.

Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting

Introduction

This chapter provides a number of examples of Ques­tions (Q:), Causes (C:), and Answers (A:). If your

Ethernet PC card is not working properly, look up the
solution here; if unsuccessful, call Tech Support (see
Chapter 5).

Q:The Card Service does not enable my card. When

I run LANEN, the error message displays Fail to
enable PC card. Why?

C:No memory space to map the attribute memory of

PCMCIA card.

A:If memory management software e.g. EMM386 has

been installed, you have to reserve some area in up­per memory (C000:0  EFFF:F) for attribute
memory of PCMCIA card while enabling the card.
Example: Device=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM
X=D000-D3FF. Reserve D000 - D3FF for attribute
memory.

Q:How do I know the FAST Ethernet PC card is

enabled?

A:1.If the Card Service is installed, you will hear a beep

when card is inserted.

2.Run LANEN /CHK to check if the card is en­abled. The resources allocated for the card are
shown at the last line of the display message.

 IO=xxx IRQ=nn Slot=nn

Troubleshooting

32-MultiMobile

Q:How do you enable the FAST Ethernet PC card?
A:1.The Fast Ethernet PC Card can be enabled by the

Card Service installed in the laptop directly. The
drivers associated with the card in the driver dis­kette can be run over Card Service directly.

2.In case the Card Service cannot enable the

PCMCIA card, you can run LANEN to enable it.

Q:How do you make the card work under

Systemsoft Card Service?

A:1.Copy across the LE100.CLB file.

Copy FROM

A:\PCMCIA\CARDSOFT\LE100.CLB

TO

C:\CARDSOFT\LE100.CLB

Contingent upon where the Cardsoft is saved.

2.Edit the CARDID.INI file and add the library

LE100.CLB.
Edit C:\CARDSOFT\CARDID.INI

Find the section which starts [Libraries], and
add the line
CardLib=le100.clb

before any other CardLib= lines.
When the card is inserted it will beep. Use
CARDINFO /V to check if the card has been con­figured correctly.

3.If the card cannot work properly, you may edit
CARDID.INI again to change the resources allo­cation.
In the [Common] section you may find the follow­ing strings:
Lan1Port=300
Lan1IRQ=5
Lan1MemoryBase1=D0

Troubleshooting

33-MultiMobile

Lan1MemoryBase2=D4
Lan2Port=320
Lan2IRQ=11
Lan2MemoryBase1=D8
Lan2MemoryBase2=DC

You may change the Lan1Port or Lan1IRQ to another

value (e.g. Lan1Port=320, Lan1IRQ=11) to request
Cardsoft allocate the resources you wanted.

4.If the resources cannot allocate properly, you may
run \CARDSOFT\CONFIG

or edit \CARDSOFT\CSALLOC.INI directly to set
the system resources available for allocation. The file
content of CSALLOC.INI are listed as below:

# The available resources described by the MEM=,

IO=, and IRQ= lines

# It may have been altered by the xINCLUDE and/

or xEXCLUDE lines below!

# The MEM=, IO= and IRQ= lines are provided

for Read-Only purposes.

#
MEM=D000-DFFF
IO=100-3F7
IRQ=5,7,9-C,E-F
#
# *** Resource modifications should be made below

this line. ***

#
RIO=170-177,370-377
MEMEXCLUDE=C000-CFFF,E000-EFFF
IOEXCLUDE=3F8-3FF,2F8-2FF
IRQEXCLUDE=3-4,6,13-14

You may edit the file to guide the Cardsoft which
resources are available in your computer.

Q:How do you make the card work under Phoenix
Socket/Card Service?

A:Add a card to PCM. Once the card is added, you

may use PCM to modify the resources requested for
the card.

1.Insert the MT10100ZLX/E into the computers
PCMCIA slot with the 68-pin connector facing
the PCMCIA slot and the label facing up and slide
the card into the slot.

2.Execute PCM.EXE supported by Phoenix PCM.

3.Select the socket by the PageUp, Page Down
keys.

4.Choose Configure item by ALT-C.

5.Choose Add Card to List item and Enter for first
time or choose Edit Config Parameters for fur­ther edition.

6.Set the I/O range and IRQ for the card.

7.Press Enter key and then save the configuration.

8.Exit PCM.EXE by pressing Alt-V and selecting
Exit item.

9.Reboot

Q:How do you make the card work under Award

Socket/Card Service?

A:You need to run the PC Card Control for Windows

program under Windows. If you do not have Win­dows, edit the CARDWARE.INI file as indicated be­low. Before running PC Card Control for Windows,
make sure the PC Card is inserted into one of your
PCs sockets.

1.Run PC Card Control for Windowsfrom the
Cardware sub-directory.

2.Press OK until you get to the main menu.

3.Select the Cards option and choose Edit.

contains the LE100 card.

If you still have problems with CARDWARE soft­ware try to replace your CARDWARE.INI file with
the one supplied on the Ethernet Adapter Drivers
Disk.
In DOS mode, you may use PCCARD /D or
DOSCARD /D command to check the resources al­located for the card.

Q:How can the ODI driver run successfully but fail

to login to the Netware server?

C:Frame type incompatible with server or Interrupt

mismatch.

A:1.The default frame type for Netware 3.11 is 802.3

but changed to 802.2 in Netware 4.x and 3.12. You
may check the content of NET.CFG to see if the
frame type is acceptable to the server. If the frame

Troubleshooting

36-MultiMobile

type is not acceptable, edit NET.CFG to change
the frame type at the client site or add the frame
type that can be accepted at server site.

Q:What to do should your Driver installation fail?

A:1.Insert the MultiMobile PC Card into any one avail-

able PC Card Slot in your computer. The BIOS
detects Plug and Play NIC. Place the Driver dis­kette into the computers floppy drive and Click
