  UL NOTICES
  __________

                      Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the
                      jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

                      Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals
                      unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the
                      network interface.

                      Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.


                                                                    Contents  v


                      Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type)
                      during an electrical storm.  There may be a remote risk
                      of electrical shock from lightning.

                      Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the
                      vicinity of the leak.

  vi  Home and Away Credit Card Adapter


  CHAPTER 1.  INTRODUCTION
  ________________________


                      The Home and Away Credit Card Adapter (PC Card) supports
                      the simultaneous operation of both Ethernet and data/fax
                      modem functions.  The PC Card is designed to operate in
                      computers with PC card sockets that comply with the
                      standards for Personal Computer Memory Card International
                      Association (PCMCIA) Release 2.0 (or higher), Type II or
                      III sockets.

                      Special features include:

                      o   Ability to set up system at "Home" in your office or
                          "Away" from your office.  You can use the connector
                          block for either setup.  When you are Away, take the
                          connector block with you.  You can use the phone
                          cable available wherever you want to set up.  If you
                          need an Ethernet cable for the Away setup, you can
                          use the one included in this package.  Another idea
                          is to use the the Y-cable (ordered separately) for
                          the Home setup.  The advantage to this is that you
                          can leave the Y-cable plugged into your wall outlets,
                          disconnect the cable from the PC card, and be
                          portable.

                      o   Compliance with PCMCIA and the IEEE 802.3, 10BASE-T
                          standards.  This allows the PC Card to be used with a
                          variety of application programs.

                      o   Sleep Mode/Remote Wake-Up -- a
                          minimal-power-consumption state that is entered when
                          the modem function is not in use.  Furthermore, the
                          PC Card supports the ability to wake up to full power
                          when an incoming call is detected.

                      o   QuickLink Mobile software--a communications software
                          package that allows the use of all of the features of
                          your fax modem.  QuickLink Mobile controls the
                          exchange of information between your fax modem and
                          the remote modem, fax modem, or fax machine.

                      o   Modem function--The Modem function of the PC Card can
                          transfer data at speeds up to 14.4 Kbps using V.32bis

                      this publication, phone numbers, and tips about the PC
                      Card.

                      1.  You might want to download the latest version of the
                          PC Card installation software from the IBM PC Company
                          Bulletin Board System (BBS).  See page 54 for BBS
                          phone numbers.

                      2.  If you have problems with your computer or PC Card or
                          need assistance, contact your IBM representative or
                          call the IBM PC Company HelpCenter at 1-800-772-2227
                          (U.S.) or 1-800-465-7999 (Canada).

                      3.  Make certain that the PCMCIA Release 2.0, Type II
                          socket in your computer is enabled.  Read your
                          computer documentation for information about how to
                          do this.

                      4.  During installation, make sure that your choices for
                          the COM port are consistent with your communications
                          program and do not conflict with system-provided COM
                          ports.  Otherwise, your system will not work
                          correctly.

                      5.  Also during installation, use the modem saver to
                          check your phone line to make sure it is safe to use.
                          See Chapter 5, "Using the Modem Saver" on page 43.

  MODEM ONLY--INSTALLATION
  ________________________

                      To be able to use the modem without loading your network
                      operating system, a modem enabler must be installed.

                      1.  Insert the Home and Away Credit Card Adapter
                          Installation Diskette into the diskette drive.

                          have more than one PC Card socket in your computer,
                          for the Card Socket parameter, note which card socket
                          you are configuring.

                          NOTE:  For the modem COM Port parameter, the
                          installation program defaults to COM2.  Whether you
                          accept this value or change it, be sure that the
                          value you select matches the value used when
                          installing your modem software.

                      3.  Exit the installation program, remove the diskette,
                          and reboot your computer.

  INSTALL THE PC CARD SOFTWARE

                      Read the following notes, and then follow the steps
                      listed after them to install the PC Card software.

                      Memory Management Notes

                      o   If you are using Card and Socket Services, the
                          installation program will default to autoset mode,
                          which allows the LAN driver to negotiate with Card
                          and Socket Services for whichever resources are
                          available.  If you are using Custom Install, the
                          installation program will also allow you to select
                          values for resources to be used by your PC Card such
                          as Interrupt Level, IO Base (I/O), and Memory Base
                          (SRAM).

                      o   If you are not using Card and Socket Services in
                          autoset mode, you must ensure that the values that
                          you select for Interrupt, I/O, and SRAM do not
                          conflict with those values for other devices in your
                          computer.

                      o   If you are using a memory manager, you must exclude
                          the memory ranges being used by your PC Card for SRAM
                          (20-KB + 1 byte default size).  If you are using
                          EMM386, in most cases the memory exclusions will be
                          automatically handled by the installation program.

                      1.  Make sure that the Installation Diskette is in the
                          drive, and type A:\INSTALL.  Follow the instructions
                          on the panels as they appear.  Express Installation

                          o   For the network environment parameter, select
                              NOVELL NETWARE.

                          o   If you are not using Card Services and you have
                              more than one PC Card socket in your computer,
                              for the Card Socket parameter, note which PC Card
                              socket you are configuring.

                          o   For the Modem COM Port parameter, the
                              installation program will default to COM2.
                              Whether you accept this value or change it, be
                              sure that the value you select matches the value
                              you used when installing your modem software
                              (such as QuickLink).

  IBM LAN SUPPORT PROGRAM--INSTALLATION

                      Refer to your LAN Support Program (LSP) documentation for
                      specific information regarding the LSP installation.  See
                      the README.LSP file on the Installation Diskette.  There
                      is an LSP book diskette on the IBM Personal Computer BBS.
                      See "BBS (Bulletin Board System)" on page 54.

                      1.  Insert the Home and Away Credit Card Adapter
                          Installation Diskette in the diskette drive.

                      2.  Install LSP:

                          A.  Type A:\LSPNDIS\DXMAID, press ENTER, and follow
                              the instructions on the panels to run the
                              installation aid.

                          B.  When you get to the Setup panel, indicate that
                              you have driver diskettes.

                          C.  Make a note of the name of your target directory.
                              The default directory name is LSP.  You will have
                              to specify this name when the Home and Away
                              installation program asks for the directory
                              containing your PROTOCOL.INI file.  This is done
                              during step 3 on page 19.

                          D.  While running DXMAID, when you are prompted for
                              driver diskettes, press ENTER, because the
                              Installation Diskette is already in the drive.

                          E.  When you get to the Primary Adapter panel,
                              ADAPTER DRIVER section, select HOME AND AWAY
                              CREDIT CARD ADAPTER.  No selection is necessary
                              in the PROTOCOL DRIVERS section.

                          F.  Press F4 to finish the installation.

                          NOTE:  When installation is complete, leave the
                          diskette in the drive but do not reboot your

                      3.  Read the following notes, and then follow the steps
                          listed after them to install the PC Card software.

                          Memory Management Notes

                          o   If you are using Card and Socket Services, the
                              installation program will default to autoset
                              mode, which allows the LAN driver to negotiate
                              with Card and Socket Services for whichever
                              resources are available.  If you are using Custom
                              Install, the installation program will also allow
                              you to select values for resources to be used by
                              your PC Card such as Interrupt Level, IO Base
                              (I/O), and Memory Base (SRAM).

                          o   If you are not using Card and Socket Services in
                              autoset mode, you must ensure that the values
                              that you select for Interrupt, I/O, and SRAM do
                              not conflict with those values for other devices
                              in your computer.

                          o   If you are using a memory manager, you must
                              exclude the memory ranges being used by your PC
                              Card for SRAM (20-KB + 1 byte default size).  If
                              you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory
                              exclusions will be automatically handled by the
                              installation program.

                          A.  Make sure that the Installation Diskette is in
                              the drive, and type A:\INSTALL.  Follow the
                              instructions on the panels as they appear.
                              Express Installation enables you to install the
                              ____________________
                              drivers more quickly by using default parameters.
                              In Custom Installation, you can change the
                                 ___________________
                              parameters.

                          B.  You will need the following information as you go
                              through the panels (in both Express and Custom
                              Installation):

                              o   For the network environment parameter, select
                                  OTHER NDIS ENVIRONMENTS.

                              o   If you are not using Card Services and you
                                  have more than one PC Card socket in your
                                  computer, for the Card Socket parameter, note
                                  which socket you are configuring.

                              o   For the Modem COM Port parameter, the
                                  installation program will default to COM2.
                                  Whether you accept this value or change it,
                                  be sure that the value you select matches the
                                  value you used when installing your modem
                                  software (such as QuickLink).

                          listed after them to install the PC Card software.

                          Memory Management Notes

                          o   If you are using Card and Socket Services, the
                              installation program will default to autoset


  22  Home and Away Credit Card Adapter


                              mode, which allows the LAN driver to negotiate
                              with Card and Socket Services for whichever
                              resources are available.  If you are using Custom
                              Install, the installation program will also allow
                              you to select values for resources to be used by
                              your PC Card such as Interrupt Level, IO Base
                              (I/O), and Memory Base (SRAM).

                          o   If you are not using Card and Socket Services in
                              autoset mode, you must ensure that the values
                              that you select for Interrupt, I/O, and SRAM do
                              not conflict with those values for other devices
                              in your computer.

                          o   If you are using a memory manager, you must
                              exclude the memory ranges being used by your PC
                              Card for SRAM (20-KB + 1 byte default size).  If
                              you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory
                              exclusions will be automatically handled by the
                              installation program.

                          A.  Make sure that the Installation Diskette is in
                              the drive, and type A:\INSTALL.  Follow the
                              instructions on the panels as they appear.
                              Express Installation enables you to install the
                              ____________________
                              drivers more quickly by using default parameters.
                              In Custom Installation, you can change the
                                 ___________________
                              parameters.

                          B.  You will need the following information as you go
                              through the panels (in both Express and Custom
                              Installation):

                              o   For the network environment parameter, select
                                  ARTISOFT LANTASTIC.

                              o   If you are not using Card Services and you
                                  have more than one PC Card socket in your
                                  computer, for the Card Socket parameter, note
                                  which PC Card socket you are configuring.

                              o   For the Modem COM Port parameter, the
                                  installation program will default to COM2.
                                  Whether you accept this value or change it,
                                  be sure that the value you select matches the
                                  value you used when installing your modem
                                  software (such as QuickLink).

                      3.  Return to page 3 to continue.  Step 5 of the
                          Installation Checklist is now complete.

  BANYAN VINES--INSTALLATION

                      1.  If one computer is already attached to your Banyan
                          server, follow the instructions here.  Otherwise,
                          skip to step 1a to install your PC Card.

                          o   Format a high-density diskette.

                          o   From the computer already logged in to the
                              server, type PCCOPY.

                          o   On successive panels, select:

                              -   COPY PC CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE AND/OR LAN
                                  DRIVER
                              -   NDIS ETHERNET and PCCONFIG (PC CONFIGURATION)
                                  and press F10 when done.
                              -   REDIRALL.EXE and press F10 when done.
                              -   A:

                          o   Insert the formatted diskette in drive A and
                              press ENTER.

                          o   This will make one installation diskette with all
                              the required Banyan files on it.

                          o   Back at your computer, make a \VINES subdirectory
                              on your hard disk.

                          o   Copy the contents of the new diskette into your
                              \VINES subdirectory.

                          o   Go to step 2 on page 25.

                          A.  Make a \VINES subdirectory on your hard disk.

                          B.  Copy the contents of the Banyan installation
                              diskette to your \VINES subdirectory.

                          C.  If you used a directory name other than \VINES,
                              make a note of it.  You will need the directory
                              name when you perform the installation procedures
                              in step 2 on page 25.

                          D.  Locate the subdirectory \NDIS on one of the two
                              Banyan VINES LAN software diskettes and copy the
                              contents of this subdirectory to the subdirectory
                              on your hard disk containing the other Banyan
                              software.

                      2.  Read the following notes, and then follow the steps
                          listed after them to install the PC Card software.

                          Memory Management Notes

                          o   If you are using Card and Socket Services, the
                              installation program will default to autoset
                              mode, which allows the LAN driver to negotiate
                              with Card and Socket Services for whichever
                              resources are available.  If you are using Custom
                              Install, the installation program will also allow
                              you to select values for resources to be used by
                              your PC Card such as Interrupt Level, IO Base
                              (I/O), and Memory Base (SRAM).

                          o   If you are not using Card and Socket Services in
                              autoset mode, you must ensure that the values
                              that you select for Interrupt, I/O, and SRAM do
                              not conflict with those values for other devices
                              in your computer.

                          o   If you are using a memory manager, you must
                              exclude the memory ranges being used by your PC
                              Card for SRAM (20-KB + 1 byte default size).  If
                              you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory
                              exclusions will be automatically handled by the
                              installation program.

                          A.  Make sure that the Installation Diskette is in
                              the drive, and type A:\INSTALL.  Follow the
                              instructions on the panels as they appear.

                              o   For the network environment parameter, select
                                  BANYAN VINES.

                              o   If you are not using Card Services and you
                                  have more than one PC Card socket in your
                                  computer, for the Card Socket parameter, note
                                  which PC Card socket you are configuring.

                              with Card and Socket Services for whichever
                              resources are available.  If you are using Custom
                              Install, the installation program will also allow
                              you to select values for resources to be used by
                              your PC Card such as Interrupt Level, IO Base
                              (I/O), and Memory Base (SRAM).

                              autoset mode, you must ensure that the values
                              that you select for Interrupt, I/O, and SRAM do
                              not conflict with those values for other devices
                              in your computer.

                          o   If you are using a memory manager, you must
                              exclude the memory ranges being used by your PC
                              Card for SRAM (20-KB + 1 byte default size).  If
                              you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory
                              exclusions will be automatically handled by the
                              installation program.

                          A.  Make sure that the Installation Diskette is in

                                  MS LAN MANAGER.

                              o   If you are not using Card Services and you
                                  have more than one PC Card socket in your
                                  computer, for the Card Socket parameter, note
                                  which PC Card socket you are configuring.

                              o   For the Modem COM Port parameter, the
                                  installation program will default to COM2.
                                  Whether you accept this value or change it,
                                  be sure that the value you select matches the
                                  value you used when installing your modem
                                  software (such as QuickLink).

  CHAPTER 3.  MODEM OPERATION
  ___________________________


                      The PC Card supports the following data modem modulation
                      standards in originate and answer modes:

                                CCITT V.21               300 bps
                                Bell 103F                300 bps
                                CCITT V.22              1200 bps
                                Bell 212A               1200 bps
                                CCITT V.23              1200/75 bps
                                CCITT V.22bis           2400 bps
                                CCITT V.32              up to 9600 bps
                                CCITT V.32bis           up to 14400 bps


  COMMON COM PORTS

                      The four COM ports, C1 through C4, and their associated
                      base-address values and interrupt settings, are shown as
                      follows:

                               COM1:        03f8h          IRQ4
                               COM2:        02f8h          IRQ3
                               COM3:        03e8h          IRQ4
                               COM4:        02e8h          IRQ3

                      The COM port chosen during the Home and Away Credit Card
                      Adapter installation must match the COM port chosen for
                      your modem software.  This can usually be changed in the
                      modem software.  See the documentation that came with
                      your modem application program.


  ETHERNET AND MODEM CONCURRENT USE
  _________________________________

                      If you have installed the modem and Ethernet functions
                      and you plan on using the modem and Ethernet functions
                      concurrently, the installation loads the NDIS or ODI
                      driver, FME_NDIS.DOS or FME_NET.COM, respectively, to
                      support both functions.

                      If you have a Novell NetWare environment with Card
                      Services support, a Card Services-aware modem enabler,
                      MODEMCS.SYS, was loaded and your CONFIG.SYS was modified
                      by the installation program.  You may use your modem with
                      or without loading the network.  See Chapter 4,
                      "Hot-Pluggability and Suspend/Resume Issues" on page 41
                      for additional information.

                      If you have a Novell NetWare environment without Card
                      Services support, a modem enabler, POINTMOD.EXE was
                      loaded for use when your network is NOT loaded.  Your
                      CONFIG.SYS file was not edited because the enabler can be
                      executed from the DOS command line.  To use the modem
                      enabler you must NOT have your network drivers loaded.
                      To unload the Novell NetWare drivers you must remove them
                      in the reverse order that they were installed.  This can
                      be accomplished by typing the following at the DOS
                      prompt:

                        VLM U (or NETX U)
                        IPXODI U
                        FME_NET U
                        NESL U
                        LSL U

                      You may now load the modem enabler by typing POINTMOD at
                      the DOS command line.  You can use your modem
                      communications software to run your modem.  If you would
                      like to load your network after and have not rebooted,
                      you may do this from the DOS command line by typing:

                        POINTFME
                        LSL
                        NESL
                        FME_NET
                        IPXODI
                        VLM (or NETX)

                      Your network and modem are now able to be used
                      concurrently.

                      If you have installed an NDIS environment (such as
                      Windows for Workgroups, Artisoft LANtastic, IBM LAN
                      Support Program, or Banyan Vines), you need to be aware
                      that you cannot have your network drivers loaded if you
                      want to load a modem-only enabler, MODEMCS.SYS or
                      POINTMOD.EXE.  Your NDIS network drivers are usually
                      loaded at CONFIG.SYS time.  You may choose to have two
                      CONFIG.SYS files that you can switch between, one for
                      loading the Ethernet and modem and another for modem-only
                      use.  You may also choose to set up a menu-driven
                      CONFIG.SYS.  See "Modem Only--Installation" on page 9 for
                      additional information.

  MODEM ONLY USE
  ______________

                      If you have installed the modem only with Card Services
                      support, the installation program loaded a Card
                      Services-aware modem enabler, MODEMCS.SYS and modified
                      your CONFIG.SYS.  See Chapter 4, "Hot-Pluggability and
                      Suspend/Resume Issues" on page 41 for additional
                      information.

                      If you have installed the modem only without Card
                      Services support, a modem enabler, POINTMOD.EXE, was
                      loaded and your CONFIG.SYS was modified by the
                      installation program.

                      If you choose not to have POINTMOD.EXE load at CONFIG.SYS
                      time, you may load it at the DOS command line by typing
                      POINTMOD.

                      NOTE:  You should not have any network drivers loaded
                      while using a modem-only enabler, MODEMCS.SYS or
                      POINTMOD.EXE.


  MISCELLANEOUS MODEM INFORMATION

                      If you are asked to choose a modem type while installing
                      your modem software, choose Boca Research, Zoom, or Hayes
                      Compatible modem.

                      If you get a message when trying to start windows such
                      as:  "Cannot find a device file that may be needed to run
                      Windows in 386 enhanced mode" and it mentions VFMED.386,
                      you may have specified the wrong path for your Windows
                      directory during the installation.  Compare the path
                      given in the PROTOCOL.INI or NET.CFG with the actual
                      location of the VFMED.386 file.

  CHAPTER 4.  HOT-PLUGGABILITY AND SUSPEND/RESUME ISSUES
  ______________________________________________________


                      The drivers support a level of hot-pluggability and
                      Suspend/Resume.  Hot-pluggability refers to the ability
                      to remove and insert your PC Card at any time while the
                      computer is running.  If you follow these guidelines, no
                      damage will occur to your PC Card, computer, or software.
                      Hot-plugging has the advantage of allowing you to remove
                      your PC Card when you are using battery power, thus
                      reducing the drain on your battery.  To use the
                      hot-plugging features of this PC Card, you must:

                      o   Use Card and Socket Services.  If you are using a
                          point enabler, DO NOT attempt to unplug your PC Card
                          while the computer is switched on.  You may damage
                          both your PC Card and the computer.

                      o   Use the DOS ODI environment.  At the present time,
                          the DOS NDIS environments do not support
                          hot-pluggability.  Removing your PC Card while using
                          any of these may result in a system hang or the
                          inability to access your LAN applications.

                      To remove the PC Card or go into suspend mode, you must
                      first unload all of the Novell NetWare drivers.  This is
                      done by typing STOPNET at the DOS prompt or by removing
                      the drivers in the reverse order that they were
                      installed.  This can be accomplished by typing the
                      following at the DOS prompt:

                        VLM U (or NETX)
                        IPXODI U
                        FME_NET U
                        NESL U
                        LSL U

                      At this point, you may remove the PC Card from the
                      computer.  Once the PC Card is removed, you may enter and
                      exit suspend mode as often as you would like before
                      reinserting the PC Card.  It is best to reinsert the
                      adapter while the machine is not in suspend mode.

                      Also, a modem enabler, MODEMCS.SYS, will take control
                      after you unload the Novell NetWare drivers.  When you
                      reload your network drivers, the modem enabler will pass
                      control back to the DOS ODI driver, FME_NET.COM.  This
                      will allow you to use your modem under a Card Services
                      environment with or without your network drivers loaded.

  CHAPTER 5.  USING THE MODEM SAVER
  _________________________________


                      The Home and Away Credit Card Adapter connector block has
                      a modem saver circuit built into it.  It prevents the
                      modem from being connected to a phone system that could
                      permanently damage the modem.  Every time you start a
                      call using your modem (for example, to use bulletin
                      boards, Fax, or online services), the modem saver LEDs
                      will indicate whether the phone line is safe to use.  See
                      Table 3.  If the modem saver detects a potentially
                      damaging phone line it will not allow the modem to take
                      the phone line off-hook, thus preventing damage to the
                      modem.  If the modem saver indicates a potentially
                      damaging line, contact your local communications system
                      administrator to find a suitable connection to the local
                      Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).

  CHAPTER 6.  USING THE Y-CABLE
  _____________________________


                      The Y-cable has a 22-pin connector on one end, 3 meters
                      of cable, and 2 connectors on the other end.  The larger
                      connector is RJ-45; the smaller is RJ-11.

                      See Appendix B, "Parts, BBS, and Cellular Information" on
                      page 53 for ordering information.


  INSERTING THE PC CARD
  _____________________

                      NOTE:  Before installing the Home and Away Credit Card
                      Adapter, be sure to read "Electronic Emission Notices" on
                      page 59.

                      For an alternate hardware configuration, see "Inserting
                      the PC Card" on page 34.

                      NOTE:  If you are using Card and Socket Services, you
                      might be able to use hot pluggability features with your
                                           ________________
                      PC Card.  Refer to the READ.ME file on the Installation
                      Diskette for the most current information regarding hot
                      pluggability.

                      1.  Remove any diskettes from the diskette drives and
                          switch OFF the power to the computer.

                      2.  Connect the Y-cable to the outlets and the PC Card:

                          o   Attach the phone (smaller) and Ethernet (larger)
                              connectors on the Y-cable to the appropriate
                              telecommunications outlets.

                          o   Attach the 22-pin connector on the Y-cable to the
                              PC Card.

                              The Y-cable is keyed to attach one way.  If you
                              feel resistance before the cable is fully
                              inserted, turn it over and reinsert it.

                              To lock the cable securely, move the latching
                              button toward the PC Card.  In some cases, you
                              may want to leave the latch retracted.  If the
                              latch is left retracted and the cable is pulled,
                              it will disconnect from the PC Card, possibly
                              saving your computer from being pulled off a
                              table.

                             attach 22-pin to PC Card


                      3.  Insert the PC Card in the socket.

                          The PC Card is keyed to go in only one way.  If you
                          feel resistance before it is fully inserted, turn it
                          over and reinsert it.

                          If you are using Card and Socket Services, put the
                          card in either socket.  If you are not using Card and
                          Socket Services, use the socket you specified during
                          installation.


                                              PC Card in socket

                      4.  Switch ON the power to the computer.

                      5.  Return to page 3 to continue.  Step 6 of the
                          Installation Checklist is now complete.

  APPENDIX A.  PROBLEM DETERMINATION
  __________________________________


                      Check this list of possible error conditions if problems
                      occur.

                      1.  If you are using Card Services:

                          During reboot, you hear four alternating tones.  This
                          indicates that Card Services was unable to give you
                          one or more resources that your program requested.
                          Resources are I/O ports, interrupt level, and memory
                          locations.

                          Make sure the PC Card is in the socket.

                          NOTE:  The items in the following paragraphs are
                          performed by the installation program.

                          o   If you are using the NDIS driver (FME_NDIS.DOS):

                              Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file and see whether you
                              have specified a particular value for the
                              interrupt level or memory locations.  This would
                              be indicated by the keywords INTERRUPT=X,
                              COMPORT=X, IOBase=0xXXX, or RAMADDRESS=0xXXXXX.

                              If you find the parameters for INTERRUPT or
                              IOBASE, comment them out by placing a semicolon
                              in front of the keyword.  If you have specified a
                              value for RAMADDRESS, change the value to 0 so
                              that the line looks like the following:

                                   RAMADDRESS=0

                              Also, verify that the keyword PCMCIA is in the
                              list of keywords.

                              If INTERRUPT or IOBASE are commented out or are
                              not in PROTOCOL.INI, if RAMADDRESS is already set
                              to 0, and if the keyword PCMCIA is in the list,
                              the driver is in Autoset mode and it allows Card
                              Services to determine what values are used by the
                              driver.

                              NOTE:  A specified value for COMPORT MUST be in
                              PROTOCOL.INI in order for the driver to work
                              correctly.

                          o   If you are using the ODI driver (FME_NET.COM):


  (C) Copyright IBM Corp. 1995                                               47


                              Edit the NET.CFG file and see whether you have
                              specified a particular value for the interrupt
                              level or memory locations.  These would be
                              indicated by the keywords MEM XXXXX, PORT XXX,
                              INT X or COMPORT X.

                              If you find the parameters for PORT or INT,
                              comment each out by placing a semicolon in front
                              of the keyword.  If you have specified a value
                              for MEM, change the value to FFFFFFFF so that the
                              line looks like the following:

                                  MEM FFFFFFFF

                              Also, verify that the keyword PCMCIA is in the
                              list of keywords.

                              If INT or PORT are commented out or are not in
                              NET.CFG, if MEM is already set to FFFFFFFF, and
                              if the PCMCIA keyword is there, the driver is in
                              Autoset mode and allows Card Services to
                              determine what values are used by the driver.

                              NOTE:  A specified value for COMPORT MUST be in
                              NET.CFG in order to use the modem and Ethernet
                              concurrently.

                              If you reboot and still receive the alternating
                              beep alarm, there is a problem with Card
                              Services.  Check your level of Card Services and
                              ensure that it is the latest available.

                      2.  If you suspect that you have a hardware problem with
                          the PC Card, run the PC Card diagnostics.  See
                          "Running the Diagnostics Program" on page 49.

                      3.  If your computer displays an error code, contact your
                          IBM representative or call the IBM PC Company
                          HelpCenter at 1-800-772-2227 (U.S.) or 1-800-465-7999
                          (Canada).

                      4.  If you are using an enabler, make sure that the
                          values on the enabler line in the CONFIG.SYS match
                          the values in PROTOCOL.INI or NET.CFG.  The values
                          must be specified in PROTOCOL.INI or NET.CFG.

  MODEM PROBLEM DETERMINATION
  ___________________________

                      If you have a problem with your modem, check that:

                          The telephone has a dialtone.

                          The phone number is correct.

                          The dial string is correct.

                          The communication program instructions were followed
                          correctly.

                          The COM port assigned to the PC Card was not
                          previously assigned to another device.

                          The COM port values for the PC Card are the same as
                          those chosen for data/fax application program.

                          The DAA (if required) and telephone connector are
                          correct for the country where you are using the
                          modem.

                          NOTE:  If you are using the PC Card in the United
                          States or Canada, you do not require an external DAA.


  RUNNING THE DIAGNOSTICS PROGRAM
  _______________________________

                      Use the diagnostics program on the Installation Diskette
                      to test the hardware components of the PC Card.  This
                      program is optional but can be used if the PC Card is not
                      functioning as expected.

                      The diagnostics program performs a series of tests and

  CELLULAR SUPPORT - SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

                      MNP10 EC and Celeratis TX-CEL support is used to
                      compensate for noisy line conditions when using a
                      cellular phone.

                      To use a cellular phone with the Home and Away Credit
                      Card Adapter, a cellular phone driver must first be
                      uploaded to the modem.  Any communication package capable
                      of uploading an ASCII file can be used to load the
                      driver.  The cellular phone driver file (<driver>.S37)
                      should be copied to the directory of your communication
                      package.


  MANUAL INSTALLATION

                      To upload the driver for your particular phone:

                      1.  Start your communications package.

                      2.  Set the baud rate to its highest value, the data bits
                          to 8, and the priority to none.

                      3.  Begin the driver upload by typing AT&caret.C2 and
                          pressing ENTER.  The modem will respond with download
                                                                       ________
                          initiated.
                          _________

                      4.  Start the ASCII upload of the driver needed for your
                          phone, <driver>.S37.

                      5.  Once the uploading is initiated, a series of dots
                          will scroll across the screen.  After a successful
                          upload, an OK message will be displayed.

                      6.  Type AT&caret.I to verify that the cellular driver
                          has loaded.

                      7.  Connect your cellular cable to the modem and the
                          cellular phone.  See "Cellular Support - Hardware
                          Installation" on page 57.

                      Phones supported are:

                      o   Consult an IBM authorized dealer or service
                          representative for help.

                      Properly shielded and grounded cables and connectors (IBM
                      part number 25H4198, 13H7373, 25H4192, 25H4195, 25H4196,
                      25H4193 or its equivalent) must be used in order to meet
                      FCC emission limits.  Proper cables and connectors are
                      available from IBM authorized dealers.  IBM is not
                      responsible for any radio or television interference
                      caused by using other than recommended cables and
                      connectors or by unauthorized changes or modifications to
                      this equipment.  Unauthorized changes or modifications
                      could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

                      This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
                      Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
                      (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
                      (2) this device must accept any interference received,
                      including interference that may cause undesired
                      operation.

                      FCC PART 68 COMPLIANCE INFORMATION:

                      The IBM DAA, included in P/N 0934318, complies with Part
                      68 of the FCC rules.  The label on the back cover of the
                      PC Card contains, among other information, the FCC
                      registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
                      for this equipment.  If requested, provide this
                      information to your telephone company.

                      An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug (RJ-11)
                      is provided with this equipment.  This equipment is
                      designed to be connected to the telephone network or
                      premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is
                      Part 68 compliant.  See installation instructions for
                      details.

                      The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices
                      you may connect to your telephone line and still have
                      those devices ring when your number is called.  In most,
                      but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices
                      should not exceed five (5.0).  To be certain of the
                      number of devices you may connect to your line, as
                      determined by the REN, you should call your local
                      telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your
                      calling area.

                      If the IBM DAA causes harm to the telephone network, the
                      Telephone Company may discontinue your service
                      temporarily.  If possible, they will notify you in
                      advance.  But if advance notice isn't practical, you will


  60  Home and Away Credit Card Adapter


                      be notified as soon as possible.  You will be advised of
                      your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

                      Your telephone company may make changes in its
                      facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that
                      could affect the proper operation of your equipment.  If
                      they do, you will be given advance notice so as to give
                      you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

                      If trouble is experienced with this equipment, for repair
                      or warranty information, in the United States, call IBM
                      at 1-800-426-7299.  In Canada, call IBM at
                      1-800-565-3344.

                      No repairs can be performed by the customer.

                      INDUSTRY CANADA INFORMATION:

                      NOTICE: The Industry Canada label identifies certified
                      equipment.  This certification means that the equipment
                      meets certain telecommunications network protective,
                      operational and safety requirements.  Industry Canada
                      does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the
                      user's satisfaction.

                      Before installing this equipment, users should ensure
                      that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities
                      of the local telecommunications company.  The equipment
                      must also be installed using an acceptable method of
                      connection.  In some cases, the company's inside wiring
                      associated with a single line individual service may be
                      extended by means of a certified connector assembly
                      (telephone extension cord).  The customer should be aware
                      that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent
                      degradation of service in some situations.

                      Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an
                      authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by


                                                       Appendix C.  Notices  61


                      the supplier.  Any repairs or alterations made by the
                      user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
                      give the telecommunications company cause to request the
                      user to disconnect the equipment.

                      Users should ensure for their own protection that the
                      electrical ground connections of the power utility,
                      telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system,
                      if present, are connected together.  This precaution may
                      be particularly important in rural areas.

                      CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such
                      connections themselves, but should contact the
                      appropriate electrical inspection authority, or
                      electrician, as appropriate.

                      The load number assigned to each terminal device denotes
                      the percentage of the total load to be connected to a
                      telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent
                      overloading.  The termination on a loop may consist of
                      any combination of devices subject only to the
                      requirement that the total of the load numbers of all the
                      devices does not exceed 100.  The load number of this
                      unit is 05.

  APPENDIX D.  OVERVIEW OF SYSTEM RESOURCES
  _________________________________________


                      In order for communications programs to use a PC Card,
                      interface software is needed.  At present, several
                      interfaces are available and each has its advantages and
                      disadvantages.  The two most important interfaces are
                      those provided by Point Connectivity Enablers and Card
                      Services; both are available under DOS.

                      Computers that support PCMCIA have one or more PC Card
                      sockets, known as A, B, C... or 1, 2, 3....  The sockets
                      are controlled by a PC Card Interface Controller (PCIC)
                      in your computer.  In many computers, this is an Intel
                      82365SL, but some use other types.

                      RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE INTERFACES:  The following
                      diagram shows how the interfaces relate to each other:
                                   relationship between interfaces


  Point Connectivity Enablers

                      These are small programs that provide an interface
                      directly to the PCIC; therefore, they must be written to
                      support a particular type of controller.  For the Home
                      and Away Credit Card Adapter, there is a point enabler
                      for the Intel 82365 chip and compatible chips.

                      One point enabler is supplied for the PC Card:

                      POINTFME.EXE   For computers with Intel-compatible PCMCIA
                                     controllers--these include the IBM
                                     ThinkPad, Toshiba 4500 (and later), and
                                     many others.

                      In the DOS environment, you have the option of using the
                      point connectivity enabler instead of Card and Socket
                                                 _______
                      Services.  When using the point connectivity enabler, it
                      is essential that you make certain that the resources
                      used by the PC Card are different from and do not
                      conflict with the system resources and any other PC Cards
                      installed in your computer.

                      ADVANTAGE

                      o   Enablers consume no memory -- they remove themselves
                          after configuring the PC Card.

                      DISADVANTAGES

                      o   You must specify the socket number; the point enabler
                          will enable only that socket.  Therefore, the PC Card
                          must always be in a specific socket.

                      o   Hot-plugging is not possible (see "Card Services").

                      o   In some computers, the socket might not be switched
                          off when the computer is in suspend mode, so the PC
                          Card will continue to consume power.

                      o   When configuring two or more PC Cards, you must
                          allocate all PC Card resources (I/O port, memory, and
                          interrupt) manually.


  Card Services

                      Card Services requires Socket Services.  Both interfaces
                      will usually be provided with your computer or operating
                      system, as is the case with IBM PC DOS 6.1 or higher.

                      Card Services is a software management interface that
                      allows system resources (such as I/O ports, memory, and
                      interrupt) to be allocated automatically when it has
                      detected that a PC Card has been inserted.

                      Client drivers call Card Services to allocate and
                      de-allocate system resources.  When Socket Services
                      detects the insertion or removal of a PC Card, it sends
                      notification to Card Services.  Card Services then
                      notifies its registered client drivers, such as
                      FME_NDIS.DOS, that they should allocate or de-allocate
                      resources.

                      ADVANTAGES

                      o   Allows insertion and removal of PC Cards without
                          computer reconfiguration and without electrical
                          damage.

                      o   Automatically allocates system resources.

                      DISADVANTAGE

                          This is a stay-resident program that uses system
                          memory.  The amount varies according to the type of
                          PCMCIA support and the drivers used.


  66  Home and Away Credit Card Adapter


  Socket Services

                      This is a BIOS-type interface that provides a way to gain
                      access to the PCMCIA sockets of a computer.  It
                      identifies how many sockets your computer has and detects
                      the insertion or removal of an PC Card while the computer
                      is switched on.  It has an interface to Card Services.
                      Socket Services (Release 2.0 or higher) is part of the
                      PCMCIA Specification.

                      This PC Card does not support a Socket-Services-only
                      environment.


  Super Client Drivers

                      Many vendors are providing customers with super client
                      drivers; these are drivers that will enable many
                      different PC Cards.  PC-DOS 6.1 includes one called
                      PCMSCD.EXE, for example.

                      While the Home and Away Credit Card Adapter does not use
                      or require Super Client drivers, it can coexist with
                      them.


  Card and Socket Services versus Point Enablers

                      There is much debate about this subject.  In principle,
                      Card and Socket Services is the preferred method of
                      connection because it allows you to insert or remove PC
                      Cards from any socket at will, even while the computer is
                      switched on; and it automatically allocates resources
                      like memory, I/O ports, interrupt levels, and sockets.

                      Point enablers are popular because they remove themselves
                      from memory after having been loaded--as opposed to the
                      30-40 KB of memory needed for Card and Socket Services.

                      For point enablers, you have to specify the socket in
                      which a particular PC Card will be and you have to
                      specify memory locations, interrupt levels, and other
                      parameters.  This is not difficult unless you use several
                      PC Cards at different times.  If that is the case you
                      need to make certain that what you specify does not
                      conflict with any other PC Cards installed in your
                      computer.
