If /v: is given without a filename, messages will be placed in \XALL.MSG. This flag prevents any information from being displayed on the console; useful in some situations as when the machine is a headless server, where calls to Standard Output will cause problems. Without this flag, all messages will appear on the system console. The message file is overwritten each time the system is started. /v:errmsg Writes banner and other info to file \ERRMSG. /v: Writes banner and other info to file \XALL.MSG. /a:a Enable the alternate pin assignment of Data Carrier Detect (DCD) for all ports (see discussion of Alt-Pin processing. /a:q Disables the performance enhancing quick-write mode. The driver defaults to quick-write mode enabled. When enabled, DosWrite calls return as soon as the transmit data is copied to the DigiBoard hardware transmit buffer. When this mode is disabled, DosWrite calls will return only after the transmit data has actually left the DigiBoard hardware, mimicing the OS/2 COM.SYS driver. A side effect of using quick-writes is that when DosClose is called, the driver must wait for any transmit data on the DigiBoard hardware to drain before finishing the close processing. /s:sigs_off Forces modem control output signals off on port open. /s:d DTR remains low or off on port open. /s:r RTS remains low or off on port open. /s:dr DTR & RTS remain low or off on port open. /l:lptnames This permits the user to define names for the 8emp printer ports so that they are accessable to the OS/2 print manager. The convention is similar to the /n:names option mentioned above. Names consists of an MANDITORY stem followed by the starting device number. The new stem must be enclosed in double-quotes (""). If the stem is omitted, the parameter is invalid. If the number is omitted, 3 will be assumed. If the /l: parameter is omitted, the 8emp printer port will be named sequent- ially with the other 8emp ports. If more than one 8emp module is used, the printer ports will be num- bered sequentially starting with the stem and number supplied with this option. If any DigiBoard supported port has the same name as the selected 8emp printer name, the 8emp printer port will be assigned the specified name and the other port will be given the name the printer port would have had, had this option not been used. The algorithm used to assign the names is as follows: 1) Assign names to all ports (which will includ the printer ports) using the driver's normal naming convention, "/n:". 2) Assign new names to the printer ports using the names supplied by the "/l:" parameter. 3) If step 2 would result in a printer port's name being changed to a name assigned to another port, the printer port gets the "/l:" name and the comm port gets the printer ports original name. /l:"com"2 /n:digi0 8emp Ports 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9(prtr) | | | | | | | | | digi0 digi1 digi2 digi3 digi4 digi5 digi6 digi7 com2 /l:"com"2 8emp Ports 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9(prtr) | | | | | | | | | com3 com4 com5 com6 com7 com8 com9 com10 com2 The 8emp ports start with "com3" since the "/n:" parameter is ommited and com2 is assigned to the printer port. /l:"com" 8emp Ports 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9(prtr) | | | | | | | | | com11 com20 com5 com6 com7 com8 com9 com10 com3 10 11 12 13 14 15 ܥe# { x,l,l  O(T>b$ O MS Sans Serif SymbolTimes New RomanTimes New RomanInstall Guide for the xall.sys os/2 driver: 1. What version of os/2 are supported? What is the lastest driver version? a. os/2 2.1, warp 3.0 & 4.0 b. The lastest driver version 1.5.6 You need the xall.sys driver for Digi intelligent isa,eisa and mca Cards. If you do not have the driver in the box with the card you can download it at http://www.dgii.com the file you want to download is 4001479D.exe this file is self extracting, once the file is extracted use install.cmd in the xall sub-directory. When you type install c:, the install program inflates the files needed into a digi directory. 2. Which Digi card's are supported? Micro Channel (MCA) bus: DigiBoard MC/Xi 2, 4, 8 and 16 port boards DigiBoard MC C/X cluster controller system DigiBoard MC/Xem PC/AT DigiBoard MC EPC/X ISA bus: DigiBoard PC/Xe 2, 4, 8 and 16 port boards DigiBoard PC/Xi 8 and 16 port boards DigiBoard COM/Xi 4 and 8 port boards DigiBoard ISA C/X cluster controller system DigiBoard PC/Xem DigiBoard AccelePort DigiBoard ISA EPC/X EISA bus: DigiBoard EISA C/X cluster controller system DigiBoard EISA/Xem DigiBoard EISA EPC/X The device driver software supports multiple boards and multiple board types in a single machine, and can handle up to 512 ports from any combination of the boards listed above. As new products are introduced, the driver will be upgraded to include those devices as well. The driver takes all its configuration information from the device= command line in CONFIG.SYS, and all DigiBoard intelligent boards in a system are configured from a single command line. 3. How do install the Digi card into os/2? a. First you will need add global parameters to the dig device statement in you config.sys file. The digi device statement should be the last statement in your config.sys file. device=\digi\xall.sys [/n:names] [/b:baud] [/d:dtype] [/f:digipath] [/v:messagepath] [/l:lptnames] [/s:sigs_off] /t:card /p:port /m:mem [, /t:card /p:port /m:mem] [, ...] Global Parameters. The first six parameters in the command line above are global parameters, and affect all boards installed. These parameters are optional, and may be omitted. If omitted, default values will be used. /n:names Defines the naming convention to be use for the DigiBoard ports. Names consists of an optional stem followed by the starting device number. The new stem must be enclosed in double-quotes (""). If the stem is omitted, COM will be used. If the number is omitted, 3 will be assumed. If the /n parameter is not specified, the default name COM3 will be assigned to the first port. /n:"digi"0 DIGI0, DIGI1, DIGI2, ... DIGIn /n:4 COM4, COM5, COM6, ... COMn /n:"qdev" QDEV3, QDEV4, QDEV5, ... QDEVn /b:baud Sets the default baud rate to be used for all ports. If this parameter is not specified, all ports will be set to the OS/2 default of 1200 baud. Baud rates of up to 230,000 are supported. Use the DMODE.EXE command to set baud rates of individual ports. /b:9600 Initializes all ports to 9600 baud. /d:dtype Sets the initial data type (parity, character length and number of stop bits). If this parameter is omitted, the OS/2 default data type of even parity, 7 data bits and 1 stop bit is used. The syntax is [pds], where p is E, O or N; d is 8, 7, 6 or 5; and s is 1 or 2. All three values must be supplied, in the correct order. /d:N81 No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit. /f:digipath Defines an alternative directory path for the driver and data files. If this option is present, all files from the distribution diskette must be present in this directory. /f:d:\drvr\digi All data files are in D:\DRVR\DIGI. /v:messagefile Forc 16 17 18(prtr) | | | | | | | | | com12 com13 com14 com15 com16 com17 com18 com19 com4 The printer ports are named sequentially starting with the name "com3", so ports 9 and 18 are named "com3" and "com4" respectively. Since the "/n:" option was not used, the com ports would have started their names with "com3". Since port 9 and 18 are already assigned "com3" and "com4", port 1 (normally com3) is given the name "com11" and port 2 (normally com4),is given the name "com20", since these are the names that would have been assigned to ports 9 and 18 had the "/l:" option not been used. /l:"com"2 /n:"com"4 8emp Ports 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9(prtr) | | | | | | | | | com4 com5 com6 com7 com8 com9 com10 com11 com2 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18(prtr) | | | | | | | | | com13 com14 com15 com16 com17 com18 com19 com20 com3 Here, the standard com port names are not modified because they have been specified to start with "com4" using the "/n:" option, which don't conflict with the specified printer port names. Per-Card Parameters. The remaining three parameters are per-card parameters, and are used to inform the driver of the type of board and where it is to be addressed in the hosts I/O and memory buses. These parameters are mandatory, and must be given for each board! The per-card parameters must be given in complete sets, and the sets must be separated by commas. /t:card Defines the card type to the driver. Legal values for card are: a for AccelePort Xr i for the ISA C/X, e for the EISA C/X, m for the MC C/X, p for Xem (PC/Xem, MC/Xem or EISA/Xem) x for COM/Xi boards. c for all EPC/X cards (ISA, EISA, MCA) NOTE: This parameter must be omitted for PC/Xe, PC/Xi and MC/Xi boards. The designators i, e, and m must be followed by an additional two digits defining the number and arrangement of DigiBoard C/CON-16 or C/CON-16e concentrators on each host adapter channel. If the concentrator(s) are connected to the host adapter via a dial-up or leased line (remote concentrators), each of the two digits must be followed by a parameter, enclosed in parentheses, specifying the synchronous communications mode to be used for that line. See the Appendix A for a list of available synchronous communications modes. /t:x COM/Xi (4 or 8 channels) /t:a AccelePort /t:p PC/Xem, MC/Xem or EISA Xem /t:i10 ISA C/X, one local concentrator on line 1 only. /t:e11 EISA C/X, one local concentrator on each of lines 1 and 2. /t:m21 MC C/X, two local concentrators on line 1 and 1 on line 2. /t:e12 EISA C/X, one local concentrator on line 1, and two on line 2. /t:i22 ISA C/X, two local concentrators on each of lines 1 and 2. /t:i2(21)3(27) ISA C/X, two remote concentrators on line 1, and two remote concentrators on line 2. The concentrators on line 1 will use mode #21 (76,800 baud, 8-wire, external clock) to communicate with the host adapter, and the concentrators on line 2 will use mode #27 (614,400 baud, 8-wire, internal clock). See the Appendix for a list of synchronous communications modes. /t:c22 An ISA, EISA, or MCA EPC/X with 2 concentrators on each line. Please see Appendix B for a more detailed explanation of EPC/X configuration specifications. /p:port Defines the I/O port address for the card. /p:300 Board is addressed at I/O port 300h. /p:2005 EISA board (EISA C/X or EISA/Xem host adapter) is in slot 2 (EISA I/O addresses are 4 digits : the slot number, followed by 005). When plugging an ISA board (PC/Xe, ISA C/X host adapter, etc.) into an EISA machine, the /p parameter must contain the 3-digit I/O address as set by the DIP switches on the board, and not the 4-digit address based on the EISA slot number. /m:mem Dual-ported memory starting address. This is the full 32-bit hexadecimal address of the beginning of the boards dual-ported memory. /m:d0000 Sets dual-ported memory start address to 0D0000h (in the BIOS expansion area between 640K and 1 megabyte). /m:e80000 Sets start address of E80000h (in the fifteenth megabyte). EISA and ISA boards (except the COM/Xi), may all share the same memory starting address. COM/Xi and all Micro Channel boards must each have unique memory addresses. 4. Below are sample device statements for os/2: Example 1: COM/Xi One COM/Xi at I/O port 300h, memory start address D8000h; devices to be named COM5 COM6, etc. All data files are in the directory \DIGI: device=c:\digi\xall.sys /n:5 /p:300 /m:d8000 /t:x (Note that the above must all appear on one line in CONFIG.SYS) -------- Example 2: PC/Xe, PC/Xi One PC/Xe (or PC/Xi) at I/O port 220h, memory address D0000h Ports will be named COM3, COM4, etc. (default names).

Global paramters and example device statements for the cx and epc/cx sync modes: Synchronous Communications Modes The DigiCHANNEL C/X host adapter communicates with attached C/CON-16 concentrators via two RS-422 synchronous channels (newer concentrators and host adapters also support RS-232 synchronous communication. See your hardware Installation Guide). The default operating mode for these channels is 1.2 megabaud, 8-wire, internally clocked. This provides the fastest possible communication between the host adapter and locally connected concentrators (in this context, local indicates that concentrators are connected directly, via a 4 or 8 wire cable, to the host adapter; remote refers to concentrators that are connected to the host adapter via data communications devices such as modems or DSUs). Local concentrators always communicate with the host adapter in either an eight wire internally clocked mode or a four wire self-clocked mode (in the four wire modes the clock is encoded with the data instead of being carried on separate lines as in the eight wire modes). Remote concentrators always use an eight wire externally clocked mode (the clock signal is provided by the synchronous modem). The table on the following page shows the modes that are supported by the XALL.SYS device driver. ===================== The currently available communications modes are as follows: Mode Bit Rate Clocking Mode _____________________________________________________________________________ 00 115K 8-wire internal clock 01 230K 4-wire self-clocked 02 460K 4-wire self-clocked 03 2400 8-wire internal clock 04 4800 8-wire internal clock 05 9600 8-wire internal clock 06 19.2K 8-wire internal clock 07 38.4K 8-wire internal clock 08 57.6K 8-wire internal clock 09 76.8K 8-wire internal clock 10 115K 8-wire internal clock 11 230K 8-wire internal clock 12 460K 8-wire internal clock 13 920K 8-wire internal clock 14 1.2M 8-wire internal clock 15 2400 8-wire external clock 16 4800 8-wire external clock 17 9600 8-wire external clock 18 19.2K 8-wire external clock 19 38.4K 8-wire external clock 20 57.6K 8-wire external clock 21 76.8K 8-wire external clock 22 115K 8-wire external clock 23 230K 8-wire external clock 24 460K 8-wire external clock 25 920K 8-wire external clock 26 1.2M 8-wire external clock 33 14000 8-wire external clock 35 2400 8-wire external clock RS-232 36 4800 8-wire external clock RS-232 37 9600 8-wire external clock RS-232 38 14000 8-wire external clock RS-232 39 19.2K 8-wire external clock RS-232 40 38.4K 8-wire external clock RS-232 41 57.6K 8-wire external clock RS-232 42 64000 8-wire external clock RS-232 43 76.8K 8-wire external clock RS-232 44-59 Reserved in future EPC Concentrator modes 60 115K 4-wire self-clocked 61 115K 4-wire self-clocked 62 230K 4-wire self-clocked 63 230K 4-wire self-clocked 64 460K 4-wire self-clocked 65 460K 4-wire self-clocked 66 921K 4-wire self-clocked 67 921K 4-wire self-clocked 68 1.843M 4-wire self-clocked 69 1.843M 4-wire self-clocked 70 1.843M 8-wire internal clock 71 2.458M 8-wire internal clock 72 3.686M 8-wire internal clock 73 7.373M 8-wire internal clock 74 10M 8-wire internal clock In 8-wire internal clock mode, each device provides it's own transmit clock from an internal baud-rate generator at the rated speed. In 8-wire external clock mode, the transmit clock must be supplied from a modem or similar source. External clock rates are approximates used to set up timeouts tuning parameters only. Values need not be exact; the user should select the speed closest to the actual speed of the modem. On one line, if any device uses 4-wire mode, all devices on that line must use the same 4-wire mode. 8-wire modes have no such restrictions, and may be mixed in any desired combination. Modes 60-74 are only supported by the EPC/X product. Appendix B - EPC/X command line configuration. Specifying an EPC/X command line is similar to specifying a C/X command line but with more options. These options are a result of the EPC/X's ability to have up to 3 EBI modules attached to each EPC concentrator. The driver supports up to a limit of 256 ports total across all EPC/X cards. The default line speed is 1.2M since both C/CON-16 and EPC/CON-16 concentra- tors may be attached to an EPC/X host adapter card. Only one line speed may be specified for each EPC/X line and all concentrators on the line will communicate at that speed. For example, If you are using remote concentrators via a synchronous modem at 9600 baud, then all concentrators will communicate at this speed. A series of progressively more difficult configuration examples are presented below to describe the EPC/X configuration command line. The card type specifier (/t:_) 'C' indicates an EPC on any bus (ISA, EISA, MCA). The type specification is followed by information about the number of concentrators on each line. These examples are the same as examples for C/X configurations. Note too, that these can be C/X or EPC/X concentrators. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c11 One concentrator on each line at the default speed of 1.2M. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c32 3 concentrators on line 1 and 2 concentrators on line 2 at the default speed of 1.2M. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c02 No concentrators on line 1 and 2 concentrators on line 2 at the default speed of 1.2M. The next level of complexity is to specifiy a non-default communications line speed. This is specified by a speed number in parenthesis immediately following the number of concentrators as specified for each line. Parenthesis, in general, mark the beginning of a more complex configuration for a given line. These examples also apply to C/X configurations with the exception of line speed 74, which is exclusive to the EPC/X. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c1(74)0 1 concentrator on line 1 communicating at 10M (mode 74, Appendix A) and no concentrator on line 2. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c2(14)3(19) 2 concentrators on line 1 communicating at 1.2M (mode 14) and 3 concentrators on line 2 communicating at 38.4k (mode 19). In this case it's redundant to specify mode 14 as this is the default mode. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c23(9) 2 concentrators communicating at 1.2M (default) on line 1 and 3 concentrators on line 2 communicating at 76.8k (mode 9). The last level of complexity is to specify EBI modules connected to EPC/X concentrators. To do this, each concentrator (EPC/CON or C/CON) must be specified with the square bracket characters,'[' and ']' and each EBI module attached to the concentrator is specified within the bracket pair using their number of ports. Multiple EBI modules are seperated by a semi-colon. Both concentrator and EBI modules must be specified in the order they are attached to the EPC/CON. Place holders ( empty brackets, "[]") must be used to specify concentrators with no EBI modules if concentrators further downline have EBI modules attached to them. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c1([16])0 /t:c1([16])0 |||| \- No concentrators on line 2. |||\----- Denotes one 16 port EBI on the concetrator. ||\------ Denotes 1st and only concentrator. |\------- Denotes start of expanded configuration on line 1. \-------- Denotes one concentrator on line 1. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c2([16])0 /t:c2([16])0 |||| \- No concentrators on line 2. |||\----- Denotes one 16 port EBI on concetrator #1. ||\------ Denotes 1st concentrator. |\------- Denotes start of expanded configuration on line 1. \-------- Denotes two concentrators on line 1. Note that the 2nd concentrator was not specified since no EBI modules are attached to it and it's the last concentrator on the line. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c2([][16])0 /t:c2([][16])0 ||| || \- No concentrators on line 2. ||| |\----- Denotes one 16 port EBI on the 2nd concetrator. ||| \------ Denotes 2nd concentrator. ||\-------- Denotes 1st concentrator with no EBI modules. |\--------- Denotes start of expanded configuration on line 1. \---------- Denotes two concentrators on line 1. Note that the first concentrator was specified with a place holder, "[]", since a concentrator followed it with an attached EBI module. Example : device=xall.sys /p:328 /m:d0000 /t:c2([8][9;16])0 /t:c2([8][9;16])0 |||| |||| \- No concentrators on line 2. |||| |||\----- Denotes 2nd EBI module, a 16em. |||| ||\------ Semi-colon seperates EBI modules. |||| |\------- Denotes 1st EBI module, an 8emp (8 + parallel) |||| \-------- Denotes 2nd concetrator. |||\---------- Denotes 8em on 1st concentrator. ||\----------- Denotes 1st concentrator. |\------------ Denotes start of expanded configuration on line 1. \------------- Denotes two concentrators on line 1.

Baud Rate Baud rates can be specified with 2 to 5 digit designations, according to the following table: Accepted Values Baud Rate 11 110 110 15 150 150 30 300 300 60 600 600 12 120 1200 1200 24 240 2400 2400 48 480 4800 4800 96 960 9600 9600 19 192 1920 19200 19200 38 384 3840 38400 38400 56 567 5670 56700 56700 115 1152 11520 115200 115200 230 2300 23000 230000 230000 7. How can I test my ports? a. First use the dmode.exe program to see if os/2 can see the ports. If the ports are seen, the current port settings will be shown. Example: dmode com3 b. You could also use the re-direction command if using a terminal or if using a modem use echo. Example 1 dir > dmode.doc com3, the dmode.doc file will be displied on your terminal. Example 2 echo > atdt com3, do you hear a dail tone? c. Digi provides a utility called dgos2ud.exe which will test the Digi ports with a loopback. 8. The most common error's when loading the driver: Could not find BIOS file Could not find FEP file Could not find data file One or more files were missing from the digipath directory. The default digipath directory is /digi. If you have loaded the driver and data files into a different directory, that directory must be specified in the xall command line with the /f:digipath parameter. IO Port Not Responding I/O port address set incorrectly, or conflicting with some other device. Verify setting, or try a different address. DigiBoard BIOS Will Not Boot DigiBoard BIOS Will Not Respond DigiBoard FEPOS Will Not DigiBoard board will not respond to commands from the driver. Typically due to a memory conflict, or a memory cache conflict. Invalid Command Line Arguments Syntax error in the command line in CONFIG.SYS. Double-check your entries. $%&pqrsSTUxyz{ ()*TUVz{|]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]U]]]]]]]]]]]]U]U]U]U]U]6JKL^_{|}~PQ !
