1-1 SMC’s EZ Card 10 PCI family consists of three 32-bit Ethernet network interface cards for PCI computers: a twisted-pair card with an RJ-45 connector and two combo models. One of the combo models has two connectors: RJ-45 and BNC. The other combo model has three connectors: RJ-45, BNC and AUI.
Har dwar e Description The SMC EZ Card 10 PCI model shown below has two LED indicators and supports three types of network connections. Y our model may support only one or two network connections. Figure 1-1. EZ Car d 10 PCI Combo Model (SMC1208BT A) LAN Connectors The EZ Card 10 PCI models support IEEE 802.
LED Indicators The cards contain two LEDs for monitoring network conditions. The function of each LED is described below. Refer to the fol- lowing figure for the LED location.
Activity Status (ACT) Color: Green Function: Network activity indicator This LED is unlit upon power on. It lights up to indicate the presence of network activity on the port.
The procedure for installing the EZ Card 10 PCI models appears below. Although instructions for installing the software drivers are not included here, some related information is provided. 1. Power of f your PC and remove its cover . Please refer to your computer's Installation Manual for instructions on how to remove the cover .
4. Power on the PC. Hardware installation has been completed. Switch on power to the PC. Note: Y our network should be configured automatically by the PCI computer’s BIOS Setup Program. However , some manual configuration may be required in older PCI machines.

The driver diskette contains the Setup program (SETUP .EXE). This program allows you to: • View the current configuration of the card • Set up a new configuration • Run diagnostics These tasks are described in this chapter .
Running the Setup Pr ogram Insert the driver diskette in your floppy drive. The SETUP pro- gram is in the SETUP subdirectory on this diskette. Change to the appropriate subdirectory location, type the.
Viewing the Curr ent Configuration Select this option to view the current settings for your network card, as shown below. If you need to modify the current configuration, return to the Main Menu and select “Set Up New Configuration.
Setting Up a New Configuration If your computer complies with PCI BIOS standards, the system will automatically allocate the necessary I/O, IRQ and boot ROM address resources to the card.
Media T ype The transceiver setting should agree with the network cabling type. The program provides two choices: • Auto detection • 10BASE5 (AUI) With the first choice, the card automatically detects the connec- tor in use — either RJ-45 or BNC.
Running the Diagnostics T o test the card's components and installation, the SETUP pro- gram runs three different tests on the card and corresponding cabling system as listed below: • EEPROM T est • Diagnostics on Board • Diagnostics on Network Note: Run the diagnostics before the network driver is loaded into the system.
This test actually performs five separate tests: • Configuration T est — checks the initial status of the Ether net controller • I/O Registers T est — checks I/O accessibility • Internal Loo.
Configuring the Car d in Older PCI Computers The card is configured using the host PCI computer's BIOS setup program. This is done by changing the computer's BIOS settings. The procedure to do this and the terminology used depend on the the BIOS you are using.
automatically insert the HIGHSCAN flag into the EMM386 command line. This parameter cannot be manually removed once it is installed; doing so will cause the extended memory manager to malfunction.
BNC Connector with a half-twist locking shell typically used for thin coax cable. Boot ROM Read-only memory chip that allows a workstation to communi- cate with a file server and to read a DOS boot program from the server .
