Installation

The drivers must not be loaded when the diagnostics
routines are run, or the diagnostics results will be
inaccurate.
Installing More than One Card
You can install up to four AT-1700 ATI adapter cards in the same
computer. Each requires its own unique I/O resources (I/O port
and IRQ). If more than one card is installed in the host when you
run CardAssistant, the configuration window displays a column
of settings for each. You can tell which column is for which card
by checking the node address. The node address displayed
agrees with the label on the card itself.
Running CardAssistant in Batch Mode
If multiple AT-1700 boards are installed in the same
computer, then interactive mode must be used to
configure the boards.
When you wish to prepare and configure several AT-1700 cards
for users in an assembly-line approach, you can create a batch
(
.bat
) file that invokes CardAssistant as follows:
setup17
[
IOBase
] [
parameters
]
where
IOBase
is the base hexadecimal I/O address of the adapter
(e.g., 300), and
parameters
is replaced with the parameters you
wish to modify from their default values. If you intend to use the
default value for a parameter, it may be omitted. Table 2 lists the
parameters that may be set.
