NAME

SYNOPSIS

       avmcapictrl add <portbase> <irq> <type>
       avmcapictrl load <bootcode> [<contrnr> [<protocol>
           [P2P | <dn1>:<spid1> [<dn2>:<spid2>]]]]
       avmcapictrl reset [contrnr]
       avmcapictrl remove [contrnr]
       avmcapictrl trace [contrnr] [off|short|on|full|shortnodata|nodata]
       avmcapictrl addcard <driver> <portbase> <irq> [ <membase> [ <cardnr> ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       avmcapictrl  is  used to register active AVM ISA cards to the kernelcapi system and therewith to the ISDN
       system. You need it also to upload the firmware to any active AVM card. If an error  occurs  please  also
       check the kernel error messages using the command dmesg(8).

COMMANDS

       add <portbase> <irq> <type>
            is  used  to  add an ISA card to the kernel-capi2.0 system.  The portbase can have the values 0x150,
            0x250, 0x300 and 0x340 for the B1 ISA cards, look at the jumper on the card.  For  a  T1-ISA  (HEMA)
            card you can select a wide range of ports.
            irq can be selected from the following values:
            3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 15.
            type can be B1 or T1.

       load <bootcode> [<contrnr> [<protocol>
            [P2P  |  <dn1>:<spid1>  [<dn2>:<spid2>]]]]  is  used  to  load  the firmware to a card bootcode is a
            t4-file. The actual versions of the t4-files for the different D channel protocols can be  found  at
            ftp://ftp.in-berlin.de/pub/capi4linux/firmware/b1/
            You  need  different t4-files for different D channel protocols: b1-1tr6.t4 for 1TR6, b1.t4 for DSS1
            and
            b1-usa.t4 for 5ESS and NI1 (DSS1 is also supported).
            For M1/M2 PCMCIA cards you need m1-s10.t4 or m1-s4.t4 depending on the handy type used.
            contrnr is the number of the controller (card) starting from 1.
            protocol can be DSS1, CT1, VN3, AUSTEL, 5ESS or NI1.
            P2P point to point
            DN1:SPID1 DN2:SPID2 is for the american protocols 5ESS and NI1.

       reset [contrnr]
            is used to reset a card if loading has failed.  This function only makes sense  if  a  card  is  not
            successfully loaded.
            contrnr is the number of the controller (card) starting from 1.

       remove [contrnr]
            is  used  to  remove  a  card  previously  added. You can also remove cards added automatically (for
            example a B1-PCI card).
            contrnr is the number of the controller (card) starting from 1.

       trace [contrnr] [off|short|on|full|shortnodata|nodata]
            is used to trace CAPI2.0 messages. The trace will be done as kernel messages, see dmesg(8).
            contrnr is the number of the controller (card) starting from 1.
            off switch off tracing
            short switch on "one line per CAPI2.0 message" tracing
            on | full switch on "full decode" tracing
            shortnodata switch  on  "one  line  per  CAPI2.0  message"  tracing,  but  exclude  DATA_B3_IND  and
            DATA_B3_REQ messages.
            on | full switch on full decode tracing, but exclude DATA_B3_IND and DATA_B3_REQ messages.

       addcard <driver> <portbase> <irq> [ <membase> [ <cardnr> ] ]
            is used to add a card, this is more generic than add.
            driver currently b1isa or t1isa
            portbase  can have the values 0x150, 0x250, 0x300 and 0x340 for the b1isa driver, look at the jumper
            on the card.  For t1isa driver you can select an wide range of ports.
            irq can be selected from the following values: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 15.
            membase memory address if needed by driver
            cardnr only useful with driver t1isa
