Hint: Some changes of MS IExplorer are working not before next restart of WIN NT!
5.2.17 PCI PC Bios
The following settings should be made in the BIOS of PCs with a PCI bus:
PCI configuration setup
PnP Bios Auto Config. Disabled
1st Available IRQ N/A
2nd Available IRQ N/A
3rd Available IRQ N/A
4th Available IRQ N/A
Other settings may lead to problems due to conflicts in interrupts.
5.3 Installation of the hardlock
If CardioSoft is run without CORINA, some of the options are locked with a hardlock. The
hardlock used can be connected to the parallel or the serial interface.
Using an environment variable the program can be informed where to look for the
hardlock. In the default setting a search for the hardlock is made at the interfaces LPT1
and LPT2 only. In addition, using these environment variables, certain PC configurations,
which could lead to problems, can be indicated.
Port Identification Meaning:
p = parallel normal parallel port
s = serial normal serial port
e = ECP parallel port in ECP mode
n = NEC (Japan) As the Japanese NEC models have a different port
configuration, a special operation can be activated with
this parameter. A separate NEC API is thus no longer
necessary.
C = Compaq Contura Dockingbase The dockingbase multiplexer (to toggle between the
parallel port and Ethernet adapter) is reset on the
parallel port to scan for the hardlock.
I = IBM PS/2 The specification for IBM PS/2 rectifies an error in
reprogramming the ports for certain video drivers under
Windows (hardlock is no longer found after Windows
has been started). This effect can now only be
activated via the specification of the environment
variables.
