Installing Intel® PCMCIA Faxmodems In Toshiba* Laptop Systems
Toshiba* and Intel both include PCMCIA drivers with their products, Conflicts between some versions of the Toshiba* and Intel drivers can make installing the Intel PCMCIA Faxmodem difficult. Installation is easiest if you have Release 3 of both the Intel and Toshiba PCMCIA drivers, and install the faxmodem for the first time using Intel's INSTALL program. Using Intel's Release 3 software to install the card gives you the full advantages of Intel's Card Manager Software.
The next three sections of this document describe how to tell if you have Release 2 or Release 3.
If you use Toshiba's Release 3 software to install the card:
- The fax and data communications applications shipped with the Intel Faxmodem will not recognize card insertions and removals.
- If you encounter any problems while inserting or removing any PCMCIA card while the computer is powered up, call Toshiba.
Intel® PCMCIA Faxmodem - What Version Of The Card Do I Have?
There are two different releases of the Intel Faxmodem for PCMCIA. The faxmodem cards in each release have the same capabilities, but they use different versions of the AT Command Set. Here's how to determine whether you're using Release 2 or Release 3 of the Intel Card Manager Software.
The Release 2 package:
Has a plastic "bubble pack" for the faxmodem card Is shipped with Intel FAXability and HyperAccess Lite software
The Release 3 package:
Has a flat front with a picture of the faxmodem card Is shipped with WinFax Lite and HyperAccess Lite software OR Delrina 4-in-1
The card in the Release 2 package is compatible with Release 2 AT commands ONLY.
The card in the Release 3 package is compatible with Release 3 AT commands ONLY.
The Cellular Faxmodem is compatible with Cellular Faxmodem AT commands ONLY.
The International PCMCIA Faxmodem is compatible with International Faxmodem AT commands ONLY.
NOTE: The AT Command Set is built into the faxmodem card, and can not be changed with software. The Intel Card Manager software or other PCMCIA drivers on your system have no effect on the AT command set that your card uses. Intel® PCMCIA Faxmodem - What Version Of The Software Do I Have?
