Execute Adapter Diagnostics

Choosing this option will enable you to do either
on-board diagnostics or diagnostics on the network.

The on-board diagnostics will test the following functions,
unless de-selected by the select/de-select function within
the Change Diagnostics Options selection.

  1) Network Interface Controller (IO register check)
  2) Buffer Memory Check
  3) Check Cable Connection
  4) Interrupt Assignment
  5) Boot PROM Check

The network diagnostics will transmit packets onto the LAN
and packets sent and received are counted together with
counters for packet, collision, underrun and overrun errors.

                                                   (ESC = continue)
.2
Run Network Responder

Sets up the adapter as network responder. Used to echo packets
from a station running Network tests.

 received from the station running network diagnostics.

 The packets sent counter indicates the number of echo-packets
 sent to the station running network diagnostics.

 You may press ESC at any time to stop the network responder.

CHRDY Generation

Normally the CHRDY is generated after command strobe,
i.e. after IORD or IOWR is asserted. But it is possible to
setup the AT/LANTIC Controller so that CHRDY is generated
after BALE goes high.

CHRDY   CHANNEL READY
BALE    BUS ADDRESS LATCH ENABLE
IORD    I/O READ STROBE
IOWR    I/O WRITE STROBE

.62
IO16 Generation

Normally the IO16 is only generated on address decoding. But it
is possible to setup the AT/LANTIC Controller so that the IO16
is generated only after IORD or IOWR is asserted, i.e. after
command strobe.

IO16    16-BIT I/O TRANSFER
IORD    I/O READ STROBE
IOWR    I/O WRITE STROBE

.63
READ Cycles

When Enhanced Read Cycles are performed the AT/LANTIC Controller,
in I/O mode, will begin the next port fetch before the current
IORD has completed. In slow ISA systems this may cause the data
in the port to be overwritten before the ISA cycle has been
completed.

IORD    I/O READ STROBE

Emulate NE2000 and EtherCard+

Emulate Novell NE2000 I/O and SMC/WD EtherCard+ Memory means
that the AT/LANTIC Controller's memory and I/O maps are compatible
with Novell NE2000 and SMC/WD EtherCard+ boards.

Emulate 64K Address Space means that the AT/LANTIC Controller
maps full 64K address space to the Adapter.
