3 | This document describes the ACT2000 driver for the |
4 | IBM Active 2000 ISDN card. |
5 | |
6 | There are 3 Types of this card available. A ISA-, MCA-, and PCMCIA-Bus |
7 | Version. Currently, only the ISA-Bus version of the card is supported. |
8 | However MCA and PCMCIA will follow soon. |
9 | |
10 | The ISA-Bus Version uses 8 IO-ports. The base port address has to be set |
11 | manually using the DIP switches. |
12 | |
13 | Setting up the DIP switches for the IBM Active 2000 ISDN card: |
14 | |
15 | Note: S5 and S6 always set off! |
16 | |
17 | S1 S2 S3 S4 Base-port |
18 | on on on on 0x0200 (Factory default) |
19 | off on on on 0x0240 |
20 | on off on on 0x0280 |
21 | off off on on 0x02c0 |
22 | on on off on 0x0300 |
23 | off on off on 0x0340 |
24 | on off off on 0x0380 |
25 | on on on off 0xcfe0 |
26 | off on on off 0xcfa0 |
27 | on off on off 0xcf60 |
28 | off off on off 0xcf20 |
29 | on on off off 0xcee0 |
30 | off on off off 0xcea0 |
31 | on off off off 0xce60 |
32 | off off off off Card disabled |
33 | |
34 | IRQ is configured by software. Possible values are: |
35 | |
36 | 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 15 and none (polled mode) |
37 | |
38 | |
39 | The ACT2000 driver may either be built into the kernel or as a module. |
40 | Initialization depends on how the driver is built: |
41 | |
42 | Driver built into the kernel: |
43 | |
44 | The ACT2000 driver can be configured using the commandline-feature while |
45 | loading the kernel with LILO or LOADLIN. It accepts the following syntax: |
46 | |
47 | act2000=b,p,i[,idstring] |
48 | |
49 | where |
50 | |
51 | b = Bus-Type (1=ISA, 2=MCA, 3=PCMCIA) |
52 | p = portbase (-1 means autoprobe) |
53 | i = Interrupt (-1 means use next free IRQ, 0 means polled mode) |
54 | |
55 | The idstring is an arbitrary string used for referencing the card |
56 | by the actctrl tool later. |
57 | |
58 | Defaults used, when no parameters given at all: |
59 | |
60 | 1,-1,-1,"" |
61 | |
62 | which means: Autoprobe for an ISA card, use next free IRQ, let the |
63 | ISDN linklevel fill the IdString (usually "line0" for the first card). |
64 | |
65 | If you like to use more than one card, you can use the program |
66 | "actctrl" from the utility-package to configure additional cards. |
67 | |
68 | Using the "actctrl"-utility, portbase and irq can also be changed |
69 | during runtime. The D-channel protocol is configured by the "dproto" |
70 | option of the "actctrl"-utility after loading the firmware into the |
71 | card's memory using the "actctrl"-utility. |
72 | |
73 | Driver built as module: |
74 | |
75 | The module act2000.o can be configured during modprobe (insmod) by |
76 | appending its parameters to the modprobe resp. insmod commandline. |
77 | The following syntax is accepted: |
78 | |
79 | act_bus=b act_port=p act_irq=i act_id=idstring |
80 | |
81 | where b, p, i and idstring have the same meanings as the parameters |
82 | described for the builtin version above. |
83 | |
84 | Using the "actctrl"-utility, the same features apply to the modularized |
85 | version as to the kernel-builtin one. (i.e. loading of firmware and |
86 | configuring the D-channel protocol) |
87 | |
88 | Loading the firmware into the card: |
89 | |
90 | The firmware is supplied together with the isdn4k-utils package. It |
91 | can be found in the subdirectory act2000/firmware/ |
92 | |
93 | Assuming you have installed the utility-package correctly, the firmware |
94 | will be downloaded into the card using the following command: |
95 | |
96 | actctrl -d idstring load /etc/isdn/bip11.btl |
97 | |
98 | where idstring is the Name of the card, given during insmod-time or |
99 | (for kernel-builtin driver) on the kernel commandline. If only one |
100 | ISDN card is used, the -d isdstrin may be omitted. |
101 | |
102 | For further documentation (adding more IBM Active 2000 cards), refer to |
103 | the manpage actctrl.8 which is included in the isdn4k-utils package. |
