Caution: The NCS Communications Driver may have to be changed. If the NCS is installed on a
PC that did not contain the NRT (Network Reporting Terminal), it will use IRQ5 or IRQ7.
The NCS Installation Program sets the IRQ to IRQ5. On Onyx computers, or computers that already
use IRQ5, this must be changed to IRQ7. Please be sure the jumper selection on the NRT-NETPCB
card is set to IRQ7. In addition, please complete the following steps to configure the software:
1. Open a text editor, such as Notepad.
2. Open file ptp20020.ini. This file is located in the \notifier\ncs directory.
3. Look for IRQLevel = REG_DWORD 0x05. Change the 0x05 to 0x07.
4. Save the file, close Notepad.
5. Open the DOS command prompt, and change to the \notifier\ncs directory.
6. Type "regini ptp20020.ini"
7. This completes the software configuration. Reboot the computer for the change to take
effect.
To verify that the NCS Communications Driver is configured correctly, follow these steps in
Windows 2000.
1. From the Start Menu, open Control Panel, then double click on Administrative Tools.
2. Double click on Computer Management.
3. Navigate to System Information, then select Hardware Resources, followed by IRQs.
4. Verify that IRQ7 is displayed, and the Device indicates ptp20020.
