II.     Device Driver and Utility Usage of the PCMCIA/SCcardSI card. 

        =======================================================
        PCMCIA Card/Socket Services Client Driver (PMS80CL.SYS)
        =======================================================

          This device driver is required to allow interaction between the 
          PCMCIA Card/Socket Services and the SCardSI card.  Make sure
          that you had already install the PCMCIA Card/Socket services
          onto your computer.

          Installation Format:

                Device = \path\PMS80CL.SYS [/Xn]
				/Xn:  ignore checking card service version
                      1 - yes,  0 - no( default )

        =========================
        ASPI Driver (PCMSASPI.SYS)
        =========================

          Installation Format:

                Device = \path\PCMSASPI.SYS [/Dn] [/Wn] [/Sn] [/Nn] [/An] [/Zn]
                         [/In]

                /Dn - define how many SCSI drives are attached.
                      n must be 1 - 7, if n is 1 only SCSI ID 0 drive
                        is checked, if n is 2 only SCSI ID 0, 1 drives
                        are checked.
                      Default value is 7.

                /Wn - define how many seconds to wait time for drive to 
                        be stable during POWER ON time.
                      n must be 0 - 1800.
                      Default value is 5.

                /Sn - set the starting search port access speed level for 
                      printer port. 

                      n must be 0 - 9.
                      Default value is 0 (the fastest level).
                      Note: In order to streaming the tape backup process,
                            please refer to TAPE.TXT file to learn how to
                            use the /Sn parameter to achieve that.

                /Nn - define the new name of the ASPI Manager
                      Default: "SCSIMGR$"

                /An - disable / enable auto request sense function
                      n: 0, disable
                         1, enable (default)

                /Zn - n is a byte-length value
                    bit0 = 1, use the slower handshaking speed with low speed 
                              device
                           0, use the block handshaking speed with device 
                             (default)

                /In - define the adapter card SCSI ID
                      n must be 0 - 7, default value is 7.

        ========================
        Disk Driver (STASPDSK.SYS)
        ========================

          This device driver requires the ASPI device driver. Install the 
          PCMSASPI.SYS driver before the disk driver.

          This driver supports Fixed Hard Disk, Removable Hard Disk,
          Magneto-Optical Disk and etc..

          Installation Format:

                Device = \path\STASPDSK.SYS

          The driver's features include the following:

                - drives SCSI hard disks, magneto-optical drives, and
                  removable cartridge disks.
                - supports on-line disk change for removable drives.
                - compatible with MS-DOS versions 5.0 and above
                - drives up to 7 disk drives simultaneously.


        ==========================
        Disk Utility (WBSDISK.EXE)
        ==========================

          Command Syntax:

                WBSDISK

          The utility's features include the following:

                - disk preformat
                - disk partition

        ============================
        CD-ROM Driver (STASPICD.SYS)
        ============================

          This device driver requires the ASPI device driver. Install the 
          PCMSASPI.SYS driver before the disk driver.

        Installation Format:

                Device = \path\STASPICD.SYS /D:drivename
                           
           The "drivename" stands for the physical CD-ROM drive name
           which should be identical to the "drivename" specified
           in the following MSCDEX.EXE line.  It can be any ASCII string.

        Please install MSCDEX.EXE in AUTOEXEC.BAT file as shown below:

                MSCDEX /D:drivename

        ======================================
        WINASPI.DLL Windows compliant ASPI DLL
        ======================================

        Some of the scanner, tape backup applications require the Windows
        compliant DLL to be loaded.  This DLL indirectly interfaces with
        PCMSASPI.SYS to hardware.  Copy this file to the Windows home 
        directory.

IV.     Technical tips
        **************

    Use this section as supplement to the Trouble Shooting section in the
    manual.


    a.  ASPI compatible applications tested:
        
        CorelSCSI, CorelSCSI Version 2, SCSI Toolbox, Syplus Tape Backup
            Novastor Tape Backup, Gazelle Tape Backup, Conner Backup
            Exec and Adaptec's EZ-SCSI 3.0.

    b.  All of the CD-ROM, Hard Disk, Floptical and Floppy device drivers
        are based upon the ASPI (PCMSASPI.SYS ) device driver.  Make sure
        you have them loaded in order correctly.

    c.  If you are using the PCMCIA/SCcardSI card as a diagnostic tool
        for your SCSI system.  Use the /I switch to set the adapter card 
        ID to any value other than the value of embedded SCSI host adapter.

    d.  HP IIcx Scanjet: After installing both the PCMCIA/SCardSI card
        software and the HP software, remove the "MINI400..." 
        line from your CONFIG.SYS.  Next, verify that the lines below
        are included, and are in the order shown.  Be sure to substitute the
        correct path for the word path below.

            DEVICE=path\PCMSASPI.SYS /D7 S0 W3 Z1
            DEVICE=path\SJIIX.SYS

    e.  If you are using CD-ROM ( ex. Plextor 5028 ) and having problem
        doing "DIR d:" or reading the file, make sure slowing down the
		parallel port speed to /S9.

	f.  To achieve the TAPE drive streaming performance with the ASPI 
        driver and third party tape backup software, please refer to the
        TAPE.TXT file for more detail information.
