Software/Driver Installation (Linux)
66 MultiModemISI Hybrid Server Cards, ISIHP & ISIHI Series
LINUX: Driver installation and loading
Execute the 'Install' script to build the driver and to copy the driver
and firmware files to the required folder.
> cd /isi
> ./Install
For ISI cards with the ISA bus, the installation script requires the user
to type in the I/O address and the IRQ to be used. For ISI cards with
the PCI bus, simply press ENTER when asked for addresses and IRQs.
The installation creates the script file 'ISICOMStart' in the destination
folder. 'ISICOMStart' automates the loading process for the driver and
firmware.
To view busy I/O address space on your system, enter
cat/proc/ioports
To view busy IRQs, enter:
cat /proc/interrupts
You must load the driver before you can load the firmware. You can
load the driver manually using the 'insmod' utility. For ISI cards with
the ISA bus, the I/O base address and the IRQ required by the card
also need to be passed as parameters to insmod (this does not apply to
ISI cards with the PCI bus).
insmod isicom io=card1, ... card4 irq=card1,
... card4
The PCI cards and their configurations will be auto-detected by the
driver.
You can manually load the firmware into all of the installed ISI cards
simultaneously by executing the 'frmld' utility in the installation folder.
The firmware to all the installed cards can be manually loaded by
executing the 'firmld' utility in the installation folder. This utility
requires the firmware files (.bin) to be located in the /usr/local/
ISICOM/ folder.
