2 LNK 10 100 ACT To install the EZ Card 10/100, power off your PC and remove the chassis cover. Next, select an unused PCI expansion bus slot and remove its protective bracket. Carefully insert the card and press until all the edge connectors are firmly seated inside the slot. Then, screw the card’s bracket securely into the PC’s chassis and replace the cover. Pour installer l'EZ Card 10/100, couper le PC du secteur et enlever le couvercle.
3 Daisy Chain bps LNK 10 100 ACT Connect the EZ Card 10/100 directly to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX hub or switch using UTP cable (10BASE-T = Category 3, 4 or 5; 100BASE-TX = Category 5) terminated by male RJ-45 connectors. The maximum allowable length of 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX cable connections is 100 meters (328 ft.).
4 Configuring Configuration Configuración Konfiguration The EZ Card 10/100 should be automatically configured by the PCI computer’s BIOS setup program (skip to step 7). However, if you have an older PCI computer, you may have to change the computer’s BIOS settings to accomplish this. To customize and test the card, use the Setup Program, SETFE32.EXE, on the driver diskette. Accessing this program file and following the on-screen instructions will display the Main Menu (see above).
5 Select the “View Current Configuration” option from the Main Menu to access the screen shown above. If you wish to modify the current configuration, return to the Main Menu and select “Setup New Configuration”. If not, return to the Main Menu and choose “Exit Setup Program” to leave the current configuration settings. Sélectionner l'option « View Current Configuration » à l'écran « Main Menu » pour accéder à l'écran ci-dessus.
6 The host computer’s BIOS automatically allocates the necessary resources to the EZ Card 10/100. Although the Setup Program will not allow you to change those resources, you can change the settings displayed on the “Setup New Configuration” screen (see above). Note: The Interrupt and I/O Base are controlled by the host computer’s BIOS, not the Setup Program. Le BIOS de l'ordinateur hôte affecte automatiquement les ressources voulues à l'EZ Card 10/100.
