few days or even weeks, but then drops communication. If I reboot, it
restarts, and then the failure pattern repeats. What’s going on?
The TSXCUSBMBP is powered by the computer’s USB port. These ports vary widely in the
amount of current they can supply, and some do not supply enough current to meet the
adapter’s needs. In that case, the adapter may work for a while and then fail at random
intervals. This is more common with notebooks, but it can happen on desktop and tower
systems as well. Furthermore, some systems share the supply current between multiple
USB ports, so the problem may appear or get worse when additional USB devices are
plugged into the system.
To solve this problem, connect a
powered
USB hub (one with its own external power
supply) to the port on the computer, and then connect only the TSXCUSBMBP to that
hub.
I have two devices in the system. How do I communicate through the second
one?
The MBX Demo program uses the device number to determine which card to use. The
Set Device Number option lets you choose which device the demo will use. If you are
using some other software, contact the manufacturer for more information on using
multiple cards.
I have configured Peer Cop for my SA85 adapter card. However, when I try to
do any Peer Cop related I/O requests, I get an error. What’s the problem?
Your adapter card may not support Peer Cop. Early versions of all host interface adapter
cards do not support Peer Cop. To see if your card supports Peer Cop, refer to the
Determining Peer Cop Support section.
I tried to use the PCMCIA TSXMBP100 card with this driver, but the driver
failed to operate with it. What’s the problem?
Since the TSXMBP100 and the PCMCIA 416NHM21234 cards use the same card ID, the
operating system cannot tell them apart. However, the TSXMBP100 card uses different
firmware and does not provide the full functionality of the PCMCIA 416NHM21234 card.
Only the PCMCIA 416NHM21234 card is supported by this driver. Contact your Schneider
distributor to upgrade to the PCMCIA 416NHM21234 card.
I’m using an XBTZGUMP USB adapter and the driver keeps stopping. It won’t
run for more than a couple of hours.
The XBTZGUMP adapter is not licensed for full operation under Windows, and will
operate only in a two-hour demo mode. For continuous operation, use a TSXCUSBMBP
adapter.
