MORE INFORMATION

The following are switch-configurable parameters for the Pure Data ARCNET adapter and the conflicts that may result:

  1. The Interrupt Line address may conflict with devices such as the Microsoft Bus Mouse, hard drive controllers, serial and parallel ports.


  2. The Base I/O address may conflict with expanded memory boards.


  3. The Memory Map Address may conflict with the memory addresses used by expanded memory board drivers, 3270 cards, ESDI hard drive controllers, and display adapters.
