You can get the ICN-ISDN-card from:
|
|
|
|
Thinking Objects Software GmbH
|

The card communicates with the PC by two interfaces:
|
|
1. A range of 4 successive port-addresses, whose base address can be
|
|
configured with the switches.
|
|
2. A memory window with 16KB-256KB size, which can be setup in 16k steps
|
|
over the whole range of 16MB. Isdn4linux only uses a 16k window.
|
|
The base address of the window can be configured when loading
|
|
the lowlevel-module (see README). If using more than one card,
|
|
all cards are mapped to the same window and activated as needed.
|
|
|
|
Setting up the IO-address dipswitches for the ICN-ISDN-card:
|
|
|
|
Two types of cards exist, one with dip-switches and one with
|
|
hook-switches.
|
|
|
|
1. Setting for the card with hook-switches:
|
|
|
|
(0 = switch closed, 1 = switch open)
|
|
|
|
S3 S2 S1 Base-address
|
|
0 0 0 0x300
|
|
0 0 1 0x310

The ICN driver may be built into the kernel or as a module. Initialization
|
|
depends on how the driver is built:
|
|
|
|
Driver built into the kernel:
|
|
|
|
The ICN driver can be configured using the commandline-feature while
|
|
loading the kernel with LILO or LOADLIN. It accepts the following syntax:
|
|
|
|
icn=p,m[,idstring1[,idstring2]]
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
p = portbase (default: 0x320)
|
|
m = shared memory (default: 0xd0000)
|
|
|
|
When using the ICN double card (4B), you MUST define TWO idstrings.
|
|
idstring must start with a character! There is no way for the driver
|
|
to distinguish between a 2B and 4B type card. Therefore, by supplying
|
|
TWO idstrings, you tell the driver that you have a 4B installed.
|
|
|
|
If you like to use more than one card, you can use the program
|
|
"icnctrl" from the utility-package to configure additional cards.
|
|
You need to configure shared memory only once, since the icn-driver
|
|
maps all cards into the same address-space.
|
|
|
|
Using the "icnctrl"-utility, portbase and shared memory can also be
|
|
changed during runtime.
|
|
|
|
The D-channel protocol is configured by loading different firmware
|
|
into the card's memory using the "icnctrl"-utility.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Driver built as module:
|
|
|
|
The module icn.o can be configured during "insmod'ing" it by
|
|
appending its parameters to the insmod-commandline. The following
|
|
syntax is accepted:
|
|
|
|
portbase=p membase=m icn_id=idstring [icn_id2=idstring2]
|
|
|
|
where p, m, idstring1 and idstring2 have the same meanings as the
|
|
parameters described for the kernel-version above.
|
|
|
|
When using the ICN double card (4B), you MUST define TWO idstrings.
|
|
idstring must start with a character! There is no way for the driver
|
|
to distinguish between a 2B and 4B type card. Therefore, by supplying
|
|
TWO idstrings, you tell the driver that you have a 4B installed.
|
|
|
|
Using the "icnctrl"-utility, the same features apply to the modularized
|
|
version like to the kernel-builtin one.
|
|
|
|
The D-channel protocol is configured by loading different firmware
|
|
into the card's memory using the "icnctrl"-utility.
|
|
|
|
Loading the firmware into the card:
|
|
|
|
The firmware is supplied together with the isdn4k-utils package. It
|
|
can be found in the subdirectory icnctrl/firmware/
|
|
|
|
There are 3 files:
|
|
|
|
loadpg.bin - Image of the bootstrap loader.
|
|
pc_1t_ca.bin - Image of firmware for german 1TR6 protocol.
|
|
pc_eu_ca.bin - Image if firmware for EDSS1 (Euro-ISDN) protocol.
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have installed the utility-package correctly, the firmware
|
|
will be downloaded into the 2B-card using the following command:
|
|
|
|
icnctrl -d Idstring load /etc/isdn/loadpg.bin /etc/isdn/pc_XX_ca.bin
|
|
|
|
where XX is either "1t" or "eu", depending on the D-Channel protocol
|
|
used on your S0-bus and Idstring is the Name of the card, given during
|
|
insmod-time or (for kernel-builtin driver) on the kernel commandline.
|
|
|
|
To load a 4B-card, the same command is used, except a second firmware
|
|
file is appended to the commandline of icnctrl.
|
|
|
|
-> After downloading firmware, the two LEDs at the back cover of the card
|
|
(ICN-4B: 4 LEDs) must be blinking intermittently now. If a connection
|
|
is up, the corresponding led is lit continuously.
|
|
|
|
For further documentation (adding more ICN-cards), refer to the manpage
|
|
icnctrl.8 which is included in the isdn4k-utils package.
