2-14 Installing the PCC-10 Card
• Removal of a PCC-10 card while an application is using the card will result in
a loss of communication with the device, which cannot be restored by re-
inserting the card. Some applications will display unusual behavior, and will
not properly function. Any application using the PCC-10 card must be
restarted if a PCC-10 card has been removed to ensure proper operation of
the device and software.
• Under Windows 95, the first time a PCC-10 card is inserted into a running
PC, a window will appear with the words “Echelon Corp.-PCC-10.” Another
window will appear stating that the Windows operating system is building a
new database from the device information installed by the PCC-10
installation diskette. The new hardware can be configured when the PC has
finished writing the device information.
Windows 95 PCC-10 Card Hardware Revisions
If a different, or newer, version of the PCC-10 card is inserted into the PC Card
slot, a New Hardware Found window may be presented (see figure 2.1). In this
event, a prompt will appear to select which driver should be installed for the new
hardware. If the new hardware states that it is the “PCC-10 L
ON
W
ORKS
®
Network
Interface,” then choose the Windows default driver. This is the driver that is
installed on the PC during the PCC-10 Software Installation. If the driver has a
different name, you must be sure you have installed the proper software for that
card. If not, click Cancel, remove the card, and then install the software for that
card.
Figure 2.1 New Hardware Found Dialog Box
If the Windows default driver choice cannot be selected (or is shown in gray), the
PCC-10 Card may have been erroneously inserted before the software was installed
and the system rebooted. In this case, click Cancel, remove the PCC-10 Card if it is
in a PC Card slot, then follow the Windows 95 Software Removal Procedure
discussed in this chapter. Re-install the PCC-10 software, reboot the system, and
then insert the PCC-10 Card.
