Infrared Features Diskette II

Version 1.02
========================================================================


What This Diskette Does
-----------------------
This diskette provides the infrared communication driver to support IrDA
(Infrared Data Association) infrared communication protocol for the
following users.
  - OS/2 Warp family with NDIS
  - Windows for Workgroups 3.11 with Microsoft Windows Network
  - PC-DOS 7.0 with Personal Netware
  - PC-DOS 7.0 with Novell Client Version 4.0
  - Windows 3.10/3.11 with IBM Internet Connect for Windows
    Corporate Kit Version 5.0

This diskette enables or updates the infrared communication function of
the following ThinkPad computers:
  - ThinkPad 380, 380D, 385D, 380E, 380ED, 385ED, 380XD, 385XD, 380Z
  - ThinkPad 560E, 560X, 560Z

(Note)
To determine if you have to update the infrared communication driver or
not, please refer to the "Summary of Changes" section.

The following instructions assume some familiarity with the LAN software.
The installation process installs the basic drivers for each operating
system, then the additional NDIS2 or ODI driver as a part of the LAN
software installation. For detailed installation instructions on the
latter step, refer to the respective LAN software documentation.

[For OS/2 Warp 3.0, 4.0, Warp Connect and Warp Server]

IBM's IrDA for OS/2 provides an NDIS (Network Driver Interface
Specification 2.01) programming interface, and supports the following
software combinations:

     OS/2 Warp 3.0 with TCP/IP 3.0
                   with LAN Requester

     OS/2 Warp 4.0 with TCP/IP 4.0
                   with Peer networking
                   with LAN Requester

     OS/2 Warp Connect
     OS/2 Warp Server

Other applications which use NDIS (or TCP/IP on NDIS) may also be used.

The setup for all of these is similar:

 1. Insert this disk in drive A: and install the base OS/2 Infrared
    drivers by running INSTALL2.EXE. At a command line, type:

      A:\INSTALL2 /S:A:\ /T:x:<target directory> /B:y:

    where x is the target drive and y is the boot drive where CONFIG.SYS
    is.  This will copy files to your hard disk, and edit CONFIG.SYS,
    removing previous IR device drivers and adding new ones.

 2. Install the communications product you are using with Warp, as
    listed in the supported products above.

    In each case select MPTS (Multi-Protocol Transport Services) as the
    transport method.  Configure MPTS by clicking on its icon or by
    typing MPTS on an OS/2 command line.

    Select "Configure" in the first panel. In the second panel, select
    LAN Adapter and Protocols, and click on "Configure".

    If you are using a previous level of Infrared support (such as that
    shipped with OS/2 Warp 4.0) check in the Current Configuration for
    "IBM Infrared NDIS MAC driver".  If it exists, select "Remove".

    If you have the "IBM IrDA NDIS2 driver" previously installed, you
    will need to select "Remove", then "OK", close, and reboot, since
    there are locked files.  Restart MPTS and continue below.

    Under "Network Adapters", select "Other Adapters", then enter the
    path "A:\NDIS\OS2".  Files will be copied onto the hard disk into
    the \IBMCOM and \IBMCOM\MACS directories.  Once the copying
    completes, select "IBM IrDA NDIS2 driver" from the list, and click
    on "Add".
    Under "Protocols", select the higher-level client protocols which
    will be required.  Specify "TCP/IP" for TCP products, or "NetBIOS"
    for LAN Requester/Server and Peer Networking Products.

 3. Edit the individual protocol selections:

    From "Current Configuration", select "IBM IrDA NDIS2 Driver" and
    select "Edit".  To view the allowable values for any field, put the
    mouse cursor in the field, click and press F1.

    Enter a unique Network Address of the form "Xhhhhhhhhhhhh" where "h"
    is a hex character, or the locally-administered LAN address if you
    are connecting through an IR LAN Access Point.  This address must be
    different from your session partner in a point-to-point setup, and
    unique in a LAN setup.

    If you are using a LAN Access Point, you must also configure the
    appropriate Type of LAN Emulation ("Ethernet" or "TokenRing").

    Edit the client Protocol which you selected.

 4. Click on "OK" to close and save your changes.  After MPTS ends, you
    need to reboot your system.

[For Windows for Workgroups 3.11]

 1. Insert the disk in drive A:.

 2. Install the base DOS/Windows driver by running INSTALLD.EXE. At an
    MS-DOS command line, type:

       A:\INSTALLD /S:A:\ /T:x:<target directory>

     where x: is the target drive.

 3. Install Windows for Workgroups. Choose Custom Install. In the
    Network Setup panel, choose "Install Microsoft Windows Network".
    Select Advanced, Drivers and Add Adapter.
    Choose 'Unlisted or Updated Network Adapter' and OK. Specify
    A:\NDIS\DOS as the driver source path and select the IBM IrDA NDIS2
    driver.
    Change the default Network Address for the driver by selecting Setup
    and Network Address.

    Enter a unique Network Address of the form "Xhhhhhhhhhhhh" where
    "h" is a hex character, or the locally-administered LAN address if
    you are connecting through an IR LAN Access Point.  This address
    must be different from your session partner in a point-to-point
    setup, and unique in a LAN setup.

    If you are using a LAN Access Point, you must also configure the
    appropriate Type of LAN Emulation ("Ethernet" or "TokenRing").

[For PC-DOS 7.0 with Personal Netware]

 1. Insert the disk in drive A:

 2. Install the base DOS/Windows driver by running INSTALLD.EXE as
    described in the Windows for Workgroups 3.11 section above.

 3. Install Personal Netware. When asked for 'Primary Network Interface
    Card', choose 'OEM supplied driver' and set A:\ODI as the Source
    path for driver files. Choose configure Primary Interface Card and
    specify your Network Address under 'Optional Node Address'.
    Every ThinkPad should have a unique address.

Note:  The ODI driver only supports the Ethernet Access Point.

[For PC-DOS 7.0 with Novell Client v4.0]

 1. Insert the disk in drive A:

 2. Install the base DOS/Windows driver by running INSTALLD.EXE as
    described in the Windows for Workgroups 3.11 section above.

 3. Install the client software for Novell Netware. In step 4 insert
    this disk and select A:\ODI as the driver location.
    Choose 'IBM IrDA ODI Driver' and set the optional Node Address to
    your Network Address.
    Each ThinkPad should have a unique Network Address.

Note:  The ODI driver only supports the Ethernet Access Point.

[For Windows 3.10/3.11 with IBM Internet Connect for Windows Corporate
Kit Version 5.0]

 1. Insert the disk in drive A:.

 2. Install the base DOS/Windows driver by running INSTALLD.EXE as
    described in the Windows for Workgroups 3.11 section above.

 3. Install IBM Internet Connect for Windows Corporate Kit Version 5.0.
    Select 'Provide LAN access'.

 4. When asked for your network card's device driver disk, insert the
    disk in drive A: and specify A: as the source. You can change the IR
    port's Network Address by editing PROTOCOL.INI.

    If you are using a LAN Access Point, you must also change the
    appropriate Type of LAN Emulation ("Ethernet" or "TokenRing") by
    editing PROTOCOL.INI.

Note:  If you have other LAN adapters that are automatically detected by
the IBM Internet Connection for Windows installation program, the
PROTOCOL.INI binding specification may not be set up correctly. Only the
IBM IrDA NDIS2 Driver should be specified, or you can manually add the
necessary stanza/binding by editing PROTOCOL.INI later.
