|
.Nd isdn4bsd driver for EICON.Diehl active ISDN cards
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "daic0 at isa? iomem 0xd8000 irq 10"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports the old Diehl active cards:
|
|
.Em S, SX, SXn, SCOM
|
|
and
|
|
.Em QUADRO .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For a
|
|
.Em QUADRO
|
|
card, the driver will detect the board type and use
|
|
all four ports, each attached as a controller of its own to the
|
|
isdn4bsd system, which can be listed using the daicctl utility.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver interfaces the ISDN card to the ISDN4BSD kernel subsystem.
|
|
All lower layer ISDN control is handled by the card. This should
|
|
allow you to run any national ISDN protocol delivered by EICON.Diehl
|
|
for your card, but the driver has only been tested with the DSS1
|
|
protocol and some parts of the cards interface are ISDN protocol
|
|
dependent.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver is written to conform to the software interface documented
|
|
by Diehl in their
|
|
.Nm ISDN-Karten Benutzerhandbuch
|
|
from 1992.
|
|
.Sh MICROCODE DOWNLOAD
|
|
Every active card needs its own operating software before it can
|
|
work. You have to download this to the card before using it with
|
|
isdn4bsd. Use the daicctl utility to do this, i.e. call
|
|
.Nm "daicctl -d te_etsi.sx 1"
|
|
to download the file
|
|
.Nm te_etsi.sx
|
|
to controller number 1. Use
|
|
.Nm "daicctl -l"
|
|
to list all available controllers (and ports). You have to select the
|
|
correct ISDN protocol file for your ISDN interface, see the Diehl documentation
|
|
for details.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The cards bootstrap process involves another file, which is independent
|
|
of the card type you use and the protocol you run. It is called
|
|
.Nm download.bin
|
|
in current versions of the Diehl software distribution and has to be
|
|
copied to the kernel compile directory under
|
|
.Nm dev/microcode/daic
|
|
and converted into a header file used when compiling the kernel by running
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
in that directory. Your kernel compile will fail and remind you of this
|
|
if you forget to do this. Due to copyright restrictions we cannot distribute
|
|
the driver with this file integrated. But if you own a card, you do have
|
|
the file (or can get it from the Diehl web server).
