  Note: Up to four NICs can be installed in a single system. If more than
  one card is installed, each card must have a different Identification
  number.

                            LINK INTEGRITY TEST

                 Setting                                W3

                  Enabled                       Pins 2 & 3 closed

                   Disabled                      Pins 1 & 2 closed

  Note: The link integrity test is only valid when the cable type is
  unshielded twisted pair.

                       NETWORK SEGMENT LENGTH NOTES

  The segment length is automatically detected and configured on this
  card, but may not be on other cards on the network segment. All NICs on
  the network segment must have this option set the same.

                           DATA BUS SPEED NOTES

  On some systems the data bus timing is not truly IBM PC/AT compatible.
  If the card is not initializing, Changing the data bus speed from
  'Normal' to 'Fast' may allow the card to operate properly. To change
  the data bus speed you must use the ICRCNFIG utility that comes with
  the card.

                  BOOT ROM/CHECKPOINT SECURITY CHIP NOTES

  The boot ROM socket accepts an 8K boot ROM or a CheckPoint security
  chip. The CheckPoint security chip supplies virus protection, access
  control, and access logging functions.
