ICNCTRL(8)                Linux System Administration               ICNCTRL(8)



NAME
       icnctrl - configure ICN ISDN adaptor

SYNOPSIS
       icnctrl [-d Driver-Id] action options ...

DESCRIPTION
       icnctrl  is  used  to  setup  the  ICN  ISDN  device driver and for downloading the
       firmware into the ISDN card.

       The use of icnctrl makes sense, if you are using an ICN card only.


OPTIONS
       -d Driver-Id
              selects the S0 interface named by Driver-Id.  Driver-Ids are defined  during
              driver initialisation. See icn(4) for a description of the syntax to be used
              for modularised and monolithic driver versions.  This option must be used to
              identify  the  S0  interface if more than one S0 interface is existent. If a
              single ICN-2B is used, it may be omitted.  If using more than one card, sup-
              port  for the other cards is enabled with the add action of icnctrl. Ids may
              not start with digits or small x, because these values are misinterpreted as
              numeric  parameters  by  insmod.   For loading the module, always the newest
              modutils package should be used to avoid problems during load.

       The following actions may be given to icnctrl.

       add port [id1 [id2]]
              enables support for an additional card in the driver. If  id1  and  id2  are
              missing,  adds  an  ICN-2B with an id given by the system. with id2 missing,
              adds an ICN-2B with an Id given by the user. With both Ids  given,  adds  an
              ICN-4B  with  both Ids given by the user. There is no checking against port-
              conflicts. Ports are checked later during first activation while downloading
              the  firmware  and  can  be changed at runtime. Ids are checked against con-
              flicts, and if a conflict happens, replaced by the system in the same manner
              as  if no Id was supplied. It is not allowed, to add cards, after a load was
              done.

       io [base-address port]
              sets the address of the memory-mapped IO-region and  the  port-base.   After
              loading the icn-module into kernel-space, this command should be used as the
              very first setup, if the hardware settings are different  from  the  default
              settings  below.   If  both  parameters are omitted, prints out current set-
              tings. The default memory address  is  0xD0000,  the  default  port-base  is
              0x320.   An  ICN  card uses 4 port-addresses. The memory address is globally
              used for all cards (cards are mapped on demand), while each card has its own
              port range. Memory range is 16k.

       leased on|1|2|off
              switches  between  normal (dialup) and leased-line mode. Leased-line mode is
              intended for usage with S64K-lines or - if both channels are used - for S02.
              If  the  second parameter is 1 , only one channel is enabled.  If the second
              parameter is 2 or on both channels are enabled. Leased lines do not  have  a
              D-channel.  When  leased-line mode is enabled, the driver simulates incoming
              calls using special "phone-numbers" for calling and called address which are
              generated as follows:

              Calling number:
                     LEASEDx
                             where x is the internal slot-number of the S0 interface. This
                             number starts with 0 for the first S0 interface and is incre-
                             mented by one for every S0 interface configured using the add
                             action.

              Called number:
                     x
                             where x is equal to the channel  number  of  the  calling  S0
                             interface starting with 1.

       load boot-code firmware [firmware2]
              downloads  the  firmware into the card and starts operation. Using this com-
              mand, after loading the icn-module into kernel-space the first  real  access
              to  the  hardware  is  done.  Therefore  the io action above, should be used
              before, if the hardware settings are different from  the  default  settings.
              Usually  the  images  are  located  in  @DATADIR@.   The  boot-code is named
              loadpg.bin.  The firmware depends on the  D-channel  protocol  of  the  ISDN
              line.  For German 1TR6-lines, the firmware is named pc_1t_ca.bin.  For Euro-
              ISDN-lines, it is named pc_eu_ca.bin.  When loading an ICN-4B, two  firmware
              parameters  have to be supplied. The first firmware is used for the upper S0
              connector, the second firmware is used for the lower S0  connector  (towards
              the card’s slot connector).

       dump   is  available  if  the  program is configured using the --enable-dump option
              only. The contents of internal driver variables is dumped on stdout.

FILES
       @DATADIR@/loadpg.bin
              This is the image of the bootstrap loader, which is loaded first, then loads
              the firmware into the card’s memory and starts execution.

       @DATADIR@/pc_1t_ca.bin
              This is the image of the firmware designed for the German 1TR6 protocol.

       @DATADIR@/pc_eu_ca.bin
              This is the image of the firmware, designed for Euro ISDN.
