What is the PassageWay Service
Provider?
The PassageWay® Service Provider is a device driver that enables
applications that are compliant with the Microsoft Windows® Telephony
Application Programming Interface (TAPI) (such as PassageWay Telephony
Manager) to communicate with your telephone and your company's MERLIN
LEGEND® Communications System. The PassageWay Service Provider
accepts the basic TAPI requests from your TAPI-compliant application and
translates these requests into instructions to the PassageWay adapter to
control your telephone and interact with your company’s MERLIN LEGEND
system.
The PassageWay Service Provider runs with Microsoft® Windows® 95,
Microsoft Windows version 3.1 or later, and Microsoft Windows for
Workgroups version 3.11 or later and provides you with an interface between
your PC and your company's MERLIN LEGEND system via your telephone.
NOTE:
Microsoft Windows NT® and Microsoft Windows 98 are not supported.

Troubleshooting
Answering Calls
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
answer calls via TAPI applications (for example, Snap Connection).
Problem 1: You cannot answer calls via your TAPI application.
If you are trying to use your TAPI application and find that an incoming call is
not seen by the application, it is possible that the PC link to the MERLIN
LEGEND adapter has not been properly established. To verify whether this is
the cause of the failure, you should restart all of your telephony applications
and try the application again.
Please keep in mind that there are many types of applications that classify as
telephony applications. For example, Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft
Schedule+ are both telephony applications. If either are running, they will
have to be shutdown and restarted.
Problem 2: Your TAPI application does not properly reflect the status of
your phone.
During the use of your application, it is possible that the application may get
out of sync with the phone. There are many reasons why this may occur.
Some of these reasons may be attributed to some of the issues documented
in the above items.
If you are experiencing these problems, such as “phantom calls,” where there
are calls displayed on the application without a corresponding call on the
phone, or the opposite, where there are calls on the phone that are not
displayed on the application, then you should restart the application and any
other telephony application that you have running on your system.
Please keep in mind that there are many types of applications that classify as
telephony applications. For example, Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft
Schedule+ are both telephony applications. If either are running, they will
have to be shutdown and restarted.

Troubleshooting
Making Calls
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
make calls via TAPI applications (for example, Snap Connection).
Problem 1: You are unable to dial from a TAPI-compliant application.
Perform the following steps:
1. Start the PassageWay Configurator and verify that the PassageWay
Service Provider was installed and configured properly.
2. Close all telephony applications, and then run Connect.
3. From the Setup menu in Connect, select Test Adapter, and follow
the instructions on the screen.
If the PassageWay Adapter Test fails, note the error number and refer
If all tests pass successfully, run the TAPI-compliant application.
Problem 2: You cannot make calls via your TAPI application.
If you are trying to use your TAPI application and find that it is unable to
initiate a call or an incoming call is not seen by the application, it is possible
that the PC link to the MERLIN LEGEND adapter has not been properly
established. To verify whether this is the cause of the failure, you should
restart all of your telephony applications and try the application again.

Troubleshooting
Problem 3: You cannot make a call with the speakerphone.
If you are using a TAPI application, like Microsoft Dialer (Dialer is an add-on
package for Windows 3.1x but is provided with Windows 95 to operate your
telephone), you may encounter a problem. You can make calls on the phone
using the TAPI application. However, if the TAPI application is running and
you try to make a call on the speakerphone manually, the line will be
disconnected. This problem is the result of a problem with Microsoft TAPI. To
correct this problem, you should close the offending TAPI application. Or, as
a workaround, you should lift the hand-set first and then turn on the
speakerphone.
NOTE:
This problem will exist with some TAPI applications. One application
that does not exhibit this problem is Microsoft Phone (only available for
Windows 95).
Problem 4: Your TAPI application does not properly reflect the status of
your phone.
During the use of your application, it is possible that the application may get
out of sync with the phone. There are many reasons why this may occur.
Some of these reasons may be attributed to some of the issues documented
in the above items.
If you are experiencing these problems, such as “phantom calls,” where there
are calls displayed on the application without a corresponding call on the
phone, or the opposite, where there are calls on the phone that are not

Troubleshooting
Placing Calls on Hold
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
place calls on hold via TAPI applications (for example, Snap Connection).
Problem 1: When you place an outgoing, ringing call on hold via your
TAPI-compliant application, the call is dropped (that is, disconnected).
You should not place outgoing, ringing calls on hold. The PassageWay
Service Provider will disconnect these calls.
Conferencing Calls
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
conference calls via TAPI applications (for example, Snap Connection).
Problem 1: You are unable to add more parties to a conference.
The MERLIN LEGEND system supports a maximum of five parties in a
conference (including you). The members of the conference is limited to:
a maximum of two internal extensions/intercoms
a maximum of two outside lines
If you have established a conference and there are less than five parties in
the conference, there are times that you will not be able to add more parties
to the conference. If parties that are currently on the conference drop from the
conference, this information may not be properly reflected in the application.
Once this occurs, it may not be possible to add more parties to the
conference.
At this point, you will have to add more parties using the phone. After the
conference is completed, you should restart the application to resync the
application with your phone. This problem will be addressed in a later release
of the PassageWay Service Provider.

Troubleshooting
Problem 2: When you conference an outgoing, ringing call via your
TAPI-compliant application, the outgoing call is dropped, but your
application indicates that the conference exists.
You should not conference outgoing, ringing calls. The PassageWay Service
Provider will disconnect these calls. Even though the call was dropped, your
application may incorrectly indicate that the call is part of the conference.
Problem 3: During a conference call started by another caller, you are
unable to drop/hang up from the call while using the telephone handset.
If you are participating in a conference call that was started by another caller
(that is, you did not start the conference) and you are not using your
speakerphone, you will be unable to use the TAPI application to hang up from
the conference. To hang up, you must place the handset back in the cradle.
Problem 4: You are unable to use the Conference feature.
If your telephone is configured with one bridged call appearance or multiple
bridged call appearances to different extensions, you will be unable to
conference calls using the TAPI application. This situation will not occur if you
have more than one bridged appearance for each number.

Troubleshooting
Problem 5: Your TAPI application completes a conference without a real
conference existing.
If you drop the consultation call or if the party on the other end of the
consultation call hangs-up in midst of setting up a conference, the application
may incorrectly show that the conference was completed. Meanwhile, there is
only one call active on the phone. This is a known problem that will be
addressed in a later release of the PassageWay Service Provider.
If you are experiencing this problem, then you should restart the application
and any other telephony application that you have running on your system.
Please keep in mind that there are many types of applications that classify as
telephony applications. For example, Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft
Schedule+ are both telephony applications. If either are running, they will
have to be shutdown and restarted.
Transferring Calls
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
transfer calls via TAPI applications (for example, Snap Connection).
Problem 1: You are unable to use the Conference and Transfer features.
If your telephone is configured with one bridged call appearance or multiple
bridged call appearances to different extensions, you will be unable to
conference and transfer calls using the TAPI application. This situation will not
occur if you have more than one bridged appearance for each number.

Using the PassageWay Configurator
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
use the PassageWay Configurator.
Problem 1: When you start the PassageWay Configurator and use the
Auto Detect feature (that is, the Find PassageWay Link dialog box), the
PassageWay Link Not Found message box appears.
This message box appears if there is a problem with the connection between
your PC and your PassageWay adapter.
Perform the following steps:
1. Make sure no telephony applications are running on your PC. If any
telephony applications are running, close them.
The PassageWay Configurator - COM Port dialog box appears.

Troubleshooting
Problem 2: When you start the PassageWay Configurator and use the
Auto Detect feature, you receive the message “Device Not Present.”
In configuring the service provider, you may choose to let the Configurator
search for the COM port to which the PassageWay link is connected. All of the
COM ports known to the system will be searched. If the Windows system
comes across a PCMCIA COM port that is not physically there, but is
available to Windows, you will receive the following error message (“Device
Not Present”). The following example is for COM4.
“A PCMCIA Card for the COM4 port is not present in a slot. Insert a card for
the port and select the OK button. You may have to reconfigure the COM
port.”
Problem 3: The PassageWay Link is not always detected.
During the installation, you will be asked if you would like the system to search
for your PassageWay link/adapter. If you choose to have this done for you, it
is possible that the link will not be found. Assuming that you know the proper
serial port, you can use the Auto Detect button on the PassageWay
Configurator - COM Port dialog box to verify that the system can find the
PassageWay adapter. Even though the automatic search did not find the link,
assuming that you are properly connected and there isn't a conflict in the
system, the adapter should be found. This problem will be addressed in a
later release of the PassageWay Service Provider.

Troubleshooting
Problem 4: Your COM (serial) port is not recognized.
If all of the COM Ports that are listed in the PassageWay Configurator - COM
Port dialog box are disabled, then you may have a newer PC that supports
Plug-n-Play (PnP) for the serial ports. The PassageWay software is trying to
identify the location of the COM ports through the System BIOS. If that
information is not there, as seen in PnP systems, then PassageWay does not
know of the existence of the COM ports. If you have PnP, you will have to
access the PC BIOS information to turn off Plug-n-Play for the serial ports.
This problem will be addressed in a later release of the PassageWay Service
Provider.
Installing and Uninstalling the PassageWay
Configurator
This section presents some common problems you might encounter when you
install and uninstall the PassageWay Configurator.
Problem 1: The PassageWay Setup screen does not display properly.
On some PCs, depending on the type of video display adapter that is
installed, some of the Setup screens may not display properly. That is, the
background image for Setup may not be totally clear. This is an interaction
with the video adapter and how the adapter switches from one resolution to
another. This does not last throughout the entire Setup session.
Additionally, on some systems, if you move the current dialogue box
displayed during Setup, it is possible that the painting of the dialogue box in
its new position might also be accompanied with a residual image of the
dialogue box in its old position. This phenomenon does not last and is cleared
once the current dialogue is dismissed. Again, this problem is a result of the
interaction with the video display adapter.

Troubleshooting
Problem 2: You experience problems while uninstalling the PassageWay
service provider.
While running the UnInstaller on Windows 3.1x, the focus may change from
the UnInstaller to the Program Manager. Assuming your Program Manager is
not maximized, you will see the blue gradient screen of the UnInstaller in the
background. Please give focus to the UnInstaller at this point by using ALT-
TAB until you cycle back to the UnInstaller.
For Windows 3.1x, if you are running SHARE and try to UnInstall, you will get
a Share Violation error message soon after the UnInstaller starts removing the
files from your system. Choose the Cancel button (you may have to choose it
about two or three times) and you will be able to continue with the UnInstall.
You will see this error message box twice. This has no known detrimental
impact on your system.
NOTE:
When SHARE is loaded, the two UnInstaller files will not be removed
from the system. This will prevent the removal of the PassageWay
directory.
If you choose the Cancel button while running the UnInstaller, you may not be
able to run UnInstaller again. You may also find pieces of the PassageWay
software still installed. Your best bet at this point is to install the software
again, run the UnInstaller, and allow the UnInstaller to complete its operation.
When the UnInstaller has completed its operation, the PassageWay software
will have removed itself.

Troubleshooting the Connect
Application
This section presents some common problems that you might encounter while
using Connect. For each problem, a strategy is presented that you can follow
to isolate and solve your problem.
Problem 1: Connect displays the message: This application
requires a serial portand terminates.
This message indicates that Connect cannot find an available serial port on
your system. This message will most likely appear immediately after you have
completed the installation of the PassageWay software using the setup
program since this is the first time Connect tries to run.
If you do not have an available serial port (for example, if you have only one
serial port, and this port is being used by your mouse), you will need to add
an additional serial port to your PC in order to use the PassageWay Service
Provider. Your computer vendor can assist you in obtaining the necessary
If you are certain that you have an available serial port (other than a port
being used by your mouse), the available port might be disabled, in which
case Connect will be unable to detect its presence.
If you are able to determine that your PC has no active COM ports, or only
COM1 is active (but is used by your mouse under Windows), you will need to
either purchase an additional COM port for your PC or consult your PC’s
hardware documentation to determine how to re-enable a COM port that
enabling a COM port may require changing the placement of a jumper on
your computer’s system board or running your PC’s setup program.

Troubleshooting
Problem 2: Connect displays its Communications Error dialog box
within a few seconds after it is run.
This message indicates that Connect cannot communicate properly with your
telephone. This message can appear for one of the following reasons:
Your PassageWay adapter is not connected properly to your PC serial
port and/or telephone.
Your PassageWay adapter is not receiving power.
Connect is administered to use a different serial port than the one to
which the telephone is connected.
One or more cables and/or adapters are damaged, not properly
attached, or not compatible with the PassageWay Service Provider.
You should follow the instructions provided in this dialog box to troubleshoot
the problem. These instructions ask you to verify the following items:
The PC-side and phone-side cabling are connected properly.
Insure that the phone cord between the jack marked “Line” on the
telephone and the jack marked “Phone” on the PassageWay adapter is
completely inserted into both jacks. A proper connection is confirmed
by a tactile “click” as the cord is fully inserted.
Also insure that any RS-232 cables and adapters that you might be
using to connect the PassageWay adapter to your PC are NOT null
modem cables (a special type of cable), and that the total length of the
combined RS-232 cabling does not exceed about 40 feet (the length
should be as short as is convenient for your setup).

Troubleshooting
Insure your PassageWay adapter is receiving power (as indicated by
the illumination of the power LED).
If you have verified that the PassageWay adapter is properly
connected to your telephone, yet the LED on the adapter is NOT
illuminated, your telephone system wiring may not support the remote
powering of adjuncts. If this is the case, you should consult you
account representative or authorized dealer to obtain the proper wall
supply to power your PassageWay adapter or to correct any wiring
problems that may be the cause.
Connect’s software-based link test passes.
To assist you in diagnosing problems, Connect contains a built-in link
test procedure. This test can be run directly from the Communications
Error dialog box by choosing the Test button.
If the test procedure concludes successfully, Connect is
communicating properly with your PassageWay adapter over the COM
port you selected, and you should select the Continue button on the
Communications Error dialog box to restore normal operation.
If, however, the test fails, an error number will be provided. Refer to the

Manager, and then repeat the Link test procedure.
Problem 3: Connect will not work on COM ports other than COM1 and
COM2.
By default, many PCs are not configured to permit the simultaneous use of
three or more COM ports. Specifically, most PCs are configured such that
COM ports are grouped into pairs: COM1 is paired with COM3, and COM2 is
paired with COM4. By default, such PCs permit only one COM port from each
pair to be operating at the same time (for example, COM1 with COM2). COM
ports within the same pair will usually conflict with one another and are not
supported (that is, COM1 with COM3, or COM2 with COM4).
If you cannot get Connect to work properly on COM3, check if another device
is using COM1 at the same time. Similarly, if you cannot get Connect to work
on COM4, determine if another device is using COM2 at the same time. If so,
you may need to make some changes to your PC configuration to support
using the PassageWay Service Provider on COM3 or COM4. Refer to
up devices on COM ports other than COM1 and COM2, consult your PC
hardware vendor.

Troubleshooting
Problem 4: Connect occasionally displays its initialization window while
one or more PassageWay applications are running.
Connect displays its initialization window whenever it establishes (or re-
establishes) communication with the telephone. Generally, this window is
displayed only once, at the time when a single PassageWay application is first
executed. However, if a communications problem occurs at any time,
Connect attempts to clear the problem by reinitializing itself, which causes the
initialization window to reappear temporarily. If this occurs while a
PassageWay application is performing a task involving the telephone, the
operation in progress will be aborted and must be restarted manually once
the initialization window disappears. If no task involving the telephone is in
progress during this process, the operation of PassageWay applications is
unaffected.
The chance of a communications problem depends on your PC’s
configuration. The PassageWay Service Provider operates at a data rate of
9600 baud, and it relies on Windows to manage the flow of data through your
PC’s serial port. Depending upon the speed of your PC, the number and type
of applications you are using, and various hardware components in your PC
configuration, Windows will be able to manage serial communications with
varying degrees of effectiveness.
If you encounter frequent communications errors using the PassageWay
Service Provider, your PC’s current hardware configuration may not support
information about choosing serial port hardware that can work reliably at high
speeds under Windows.
Problem 5: Connect will not run. It displays the message: Connect must
terminate due to an unexpected communications errorand
then terminates.
This message indicates that Connect cannot communicate with the COM port
you specified using the PassageWay Configurator. Run the PassageWay
Configurator and select a different COM port.

This appendix provides detailed information about PC serial ports, including
background information about what they are and how they work. It also
explains how Microsoft Windows 3.1 manages serial ports, how to resolve
problems using COM3 or COM4 under Windows, and how to choose serial
port hardware that is well-suited to the PassageWay adapter. If you are

PC Serial Ports
Background
Serial ports (also sometimes referred to as communications ports or COM
ports) are hardware interfaces that permit your PC's microprocessor to
communicate with peripheral devices using a communications standard
called RS-232 (hence, serial ports are also sometimes referred to as RS-232
ports). Many common computer accessories make use of serial ports,
including serial mice, modems, and serial printers.
Under DOS (and Windows, which works cooperatively with DOS), the serial
port interfaces in a PC are uniquely identified by specific device names:
COM1 ("serial communications port 1"), COM2 ("serial communications port
2"), and so on, usually up through COM4. A particular PC might have none of
these devices, some of them, or all of them installed. For example, most PCs
currently on the market arrive from the manufacturer with two serial ports
already installed (COM1 and COM2), often integrated onto the computer's
main system board. Installing additional serial ports (for example, COM3 or
COM4) is usually accomplished by purchasing an add-on card and installing
it into a free expansion slot.
For most purposes (such as configuring software), the generic description of
serial ports provided by their device names is sufficient. For example, during
the PassageWay Service Provider installation procedure, you are asked to
provide the device name of the serial port to which you have connected the
telephone (for example, COM2). Unfortunately, this abstract view of serial
ports is not sufficient for other purposes, notably for troubleshooting
problems: To be able to do this effectively, a basic understanding of serial
port hardware is required. In particular, it is essential to understand the
mechanics by which the computer's microprocessor communicates with serial
port hardware.

PC Serial Ports
The microprocessor/serial port communication consists of two aspects: an
I/O port address and an interrupt request signal (IRQ). The I/O port address
represents a small region of the microprocessor's input/output memory space
that is used to pass data back and forth to the serial port. This memory
region acts something like a mailbox: Outgoing mail (data from the
microprocessor to be transmitted to the peripheral device) is placed in the
mailbox by the owner (the microprocessor) to be picked up by the mail carrier
(the serial port hardware) for subsequent delivery to the destination party (the
peripheral device). In turn, the mail carrier (the serial port hardware) places
incoming mail (data from the peripheral device) into the box to be picked up
by the owner (the microprocessor). This analogy illustrates an additional
important point about I/O port addresses: Just as individual mailboxes help
the residents in a neighborhood keep their mail from getting mixed up, each
device using an I/O port address to communicate with the microprocessor
should have a unique address that does not conflict with that of any other
device.
IRQ Mechanism
The mailbox analogy is also helpful in understanding the IRQ mechanism.
Normally, we place our outgoing mail in our mailbox at any convenient time
before the mail carrier arrives to pick it up. The outgoing mail sits in our
mailbox until the mail carrier arrives, at which time it is picked up and possibly
some incoming mail is placed in the mailbox. Then, some time later, we
check our mailbox and retrieve our new incoming mail. The problem with this
scheme is that it is not very efficient; both the outgoing and incoming mail
spend some time just sitting in the mailbox. A better approach would be if
the mail carrier provided some sort of signal (for example, ringing the
doorbell) to announce his or her arrival, in which case we could hand over the
outgoing mail and pick up the incoming mail immediately.

PC Serial Ports
In the PC architecture, IRQs acts like the doorbell in our analogy: They
provide a method by which hardware devices in the computer can get the
microprocessor's attention to deal efficiently with some process. The serial
port hardware makes use of an IRQ to announce that it is ready to receive
more outgoing data and/or that new data have arrived from the peripheral
device that need to be processed.
Like I/O port addresses, IRQs must generally be unique among the active
hardware devices in a computer system. In the mailbox analogy, the doorbell
is probably not a good signal since virtually anyone could ring the doorbell for
any number of reasons, not just to indicate the arrival of mail. Similarly, if a
particular IRQ signal is used (PCs generally support 16 unique IRQ signals,
denoted IRQ0, IRQ1, and so on, up through IRQ15), the microprocessor must
take the appropriate action for the device associated with that IRQ. If there
is a mix-up, or if more than one device attempts to use the same IRQ at the
same time, a conflict occurs, and the outcome is often unpredictable and
usually undesirable (for example, the computer may "hang"). Because IRQs
are a limited resource, some newer PCs support IRQ sharing, a hardware
mechanism that permits more than one device to make use of the same IRQ,
but most PCs do not. For example, all PCs that use IBM's MicroChannel
Architecture (MCA) support IRQ sharing, as do most PCs that use the
Enhanced Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) design. However, most PCs
in the marketplace -- even new models -- are based on the traditional Industry
Standard Architecture (ISA), which generally does not support IRQ sharing.
NOTE:
IRQ sharing is a PC feature. If your PC supports IRQ sharing, you can
put two COM ports on one IRQ. You will not encounter the types of
complications that this appendix addresses if your PC supports IRQ
sharing.
The specific I/O port address and IRQ that a particular serial port uses is
determined by the hardware configuration of the serial port. Generally, these
parameters cannot be changed for built-in serial ports, but add-on cards
containing serial ports often provide jumpers or switches that can be used to
configure them to use one of several I/O port addresses and IRQ
combinations.

The values in this table play an important part in understanding the "wrinkles"
associated with serial ports: although there is provision for up to four serial
ports, with four unique I/O addresses, there are only two unique IRQs
associated with them (recall that most PCs require the IRQs used by each
active device to be unique to avoid conflicts). To understand why, it is useful
to recall what the PC world was like before the widespread availability of
products like Windows.
When the architecture of the current generation of PCs was first being
designed (for the IBM PC/AT), the concept of multitasking was not nearly as
important in the PC marketplace as it is today. Consequently, since DOS
(before Windows) did not permit multiple applications to run simultaneously
(with the notable exception of certain specialized programs such as mouse
drivers), there was little need to provide a mechanism by which several serial
ports could be operated simultaneously. Consequently, the strategy used
was to conserve IRQs by assigning the same IRQ to more than one COM port
(that is, the COM1 and COM3 ports were both assigned to IRQ4, and the
COM2 and COM4 ports were both assigned to IRQ3). Then, under the
assumption that at most two serial ports would be active simultaneously (for
example, COM1 and COM2, which have unique IRQs), conflicts would not
occur.

PC Serial Ports
Serial Ports Under Windows 3.1
Unlike the DOS-only world of yesterday, today's multitasking environments
like Windows permit the microprocessor to communicate with up to four active
serial port devices at the same time (COM1 through COM4). For example,
under Windows, if you are using a serial mouse (on COM1) within a terminal
emulator program that operates a data modem (on COM2), while using a fax
board (on COM3) to transmit or receive a fax "in the background," you are
using three serial port devices simultaneously. You might even wish to make
a phone call using the PassageWay Service Provider (on COM4) at the same
time, bringing the total up to four simultaneously active serial port devices.
The fact that Windows permits this kind of powerful multitasking does not
guarantee that the underlying PC hardware can support this level of
operation, at least without some customizing at the hardware level. Since
some PCs can support it by default (for example, those that support IRQ
sharing), Windows does not prohibit you from configuring your system and
attempting tasks like the one in the previous paragraph. Unfortunately, most
PCs cannot support this operation by default, and the most likely result of
attempting the above scenario is "hanging" the PC due to an IRQ conflict. On
such systems, using COM1 along with COM2 is generally fine (recall that
these devices have unique IRQs by default), but the addition of COM3 or
COM4 causes the system to fail.
Fortunately, Windows 3.1 permits complete customization of all parameters
involving serial ports through the Control Panel, including configuring
nonstandard I/O port addresses and IRQs (that is, values different from those
in the table -- these parameters can be viewed and/or modified by selecting
the desired port in the Control Panel's Ports icon, selecting the Settings...
button, and then selecting the Advanced... button). This flexibility offers the
opportunity of salvation for owners of PCs that do not support IRQ sharing
who require the use of three or more COM ports simultaneously.

PC Serial Ports
Workarounds and Solutions to the
IRQ Conflict Problem
It is important to remember that the IRQ conflict is a problem in hardware; it
cannot be resolved in software alone. Consequently, there are only three
alternatives for working around or resolving it:
Workaround 1: Configure your serial devices such that you use only
two at any one time, and those two use serial ports with unique IRQs.
This is the simplest workaround to the IRQ conflict problem, but it does not
solve the underlying conflict. The idea is to assign your peripheral devices to
your available serial ports in such a way as to avoid using any devices
simultaneously which might conflict. For example, if you have a serial mouse
on COM1 (IRQ4), a fax/modem card on COM2 (IRQ3), and your PassageWay
adapter on COM3 (IRQ4), you cannot effectively use the PassageWay Service
Provider since you need to use your mouse under Windows while TAPI
applications are running.
A better arrangement would be to move the PassageWay adapter to COM4
(IRQ3), which then could be safely used with your mouse on COM1 (IRQ4).
In this case, the workaround is to avoid trying to use the PassageWay Service
Provider at the same time you use the fax/modem on COM2, since the conflict
now would be over IRQ3 (COM2 and COM4).
Workaround 2: Replace one or more of your serial peripherals with
equivalent devices that do not require a serial port.
The idea with this approach is to eliminate the conflict by reducing the
number of peripherals in your system that require serial ports. For example,
replacing a serial mouse with a bus mouse (that is, a mouse that requires its
own add-on card) would make another serial port available that then could be
used by another device.

PC Serial Ports
Given the scenario described in item (1) above (that is, a mouse on COM1, a
fax/modem card on COM2, and the PassageWay adapter on COM3), you
might buy a bus mouse and configure it to use, say, IRQ2 or IRQ5. This
would then permit you to move the PassageWay adapter onto COM1 (IRQ4),
where it then could be used simultaneously with both the mouse and the
fax/modem.
Likely candidates for conversion from a serial interface to some other interface
include mice (which can be converted to bus mice) and serial printers (which
can be converted to an additional parallel printer port).
Workaround 3: If your serial port hardware permits you to select IRQs
other than the default ones (IRQ3 and IRQ4), make use of one or more
unused IRQs in your system to assign to each COM port a unique IRQ.
This solution is generally not possible for built-in serial ports since these are
usually "hard-wired" and cannot be changed. Although most add-on cards
containing serial ports permit you to change the IRQs assigned to them, many
cards do not let you select IRQs other than IRQ3 and IRQ4. For example, an
internal modem card generally has jumpers or switches that permit you to
administer the serial interface on the card to be COM1, COM2, COM3, or
COM4, but the I/O port addresses and IRQs associated with each of these
configurations are usually fixed to the settings in the table.
Fortunately, some serial port add-on cards do permit you to select IRQs other
than 3 or 4 (the additional choices are often IRQ2 and IRQ5). If your serial
port hardware provides this flexibility — and at least one of the IRQ numbers
available as an option is currently unused in your PC setup — you can solve
the IRQ conflict directly.

PC Serial Ports
For example, consider once again the scenario of a COM1 mouse, a COM2
fax/modem card, and a COM3 PassageWay Service Provider. If the COM3
serial port is located on an add-on card that permits IRQs other than 3 or 4 to
be selected, you could configure the COM3 serial port to use a different
(available) IRQ in your system, say IRQ5. After making the necessary
changes to the card (for example, adding or removing some jumpers or
adjusting the positions of some switches), the last step would be to configure
Windows to monitor IRQ5 rather than IRQ4 for the COM3 serial port -- this is
accomplished using the Windows Control Panel under the "Ports" option (see
your Windows documentation for details).
If you attempt this solution, you must be certain that you do not choose an
IRQ that is in use by some other device in your system -- if so, you will only
trade one type of IRQ conflict for another. You should be aware that many
common add-on cards use IRQs, including network cards and multimedia
sound cards, both of which are commonly used under Windows. Your PC
hardware vendor can assist you in configuring IRQs. You may also need to
consult the documentation for your PC and any add-on cards that are
installed to determine which IRQs, if any, are available on your system.

PC Serial Ports
Selecting an Add-On Serial Port
Card
This section presents advice on how to choose an add-on serial port card for
use with the PassageWay adapter. Because the PassageWay adapter does
not have any unique requirements with respect to serial ports, this advice
applies generically to selecting a serial port for use with any peripheral.
In general, there are two main things to consider when selecting a serial port
for use with the PassageWay adapter:
1. Choose a card that offers the flexibility to configure its serial port IRQs
to values other than IRQ3 and IRQ4 (for example, to IRQ2 or IRQ5).
This capability often proves to be very beneficial, especially if you are
purchasing the card to add a COM3 and/or COM4 port to your
system. As was described at length in "Workarounds and Solutions to
the IRQ Conflict Problem," for PCs that do not support IRQ sharing
(which includes most PCs, unfortunately), the ability to relocate the
IRQ for COM3 or COM4 away from the defaults (IRQ4 and IRQ3,
respectively) represents the only direct solution to conflicts that may
arise when attempting to use COM1 along with COM3 or COM2 along
with COM4 under Windows.
If you know that your PC does not support IRQ sharing, or if you are
not sure, it is a good idea to purchase a card with this capability. If
you know that your PC supports IRQ sharing, this capability is not as
potentially important.

PC Serial Ports
2. For best performance with the PassageWay adapter, choose a card
that has hardware support for high-speed communications.
The PassageWay adapter operates at a data rate of 19.2 Kbps, and it
relies on Windows to manage the flow of data through your PC's serial
port. Depending upon your configuration, Windows may have
problems maintaining high data rates through traditional serial ports.
In these situations, a serial port designed for high-speed
communications can eliminate such problems while providing a
reduced load on the microprocessor (thus increasing the
performance of Windows during data transfers relative to standard
serial ports). In most cases, the price differential for such a card is
quite modest and a worthwhile investment.
Many serial port cards on the market (and most built-in serial ports)
use either the 8250 or 16450 Universal Asynchronous Receiver
Transmitter (UART) as their key component. Although these UARTs
can operate at high speeds, they do not assist the PC's
microprocessor in dealing with high-speed data transfer. Under
Windows, in particular, data can be lost at high baud rates using
these UARTs. If this data loss occurs, the PassageWay adapter
cannot function properly.
Whenever possible, select a serial port card that uses the 16550
UART. This industry-standard UART is an improved version of the
16450 with hardware support to help offload the microprocessor
during high-speed data transfers. Windows 3.1 has built-in support
for the 16550, so no special software configuration is required to
obtain the benefits of the 16550's enhanced capabilities. In addition,
any high-speed peripheral can benefit from the 16550 (for example, a
9.6-Kbps or 14.4-Kbps data and/or fax modem), not only the
PassageWay adapter.
In general, since there is no way of knowing ahead of time if your
particular PC configuration requires an enhanced serial port for the
PassageWay adapter, Lucent strongly recommends that you
purchase a card based on the 16550 UART to insure trouble-free
operation with the PassageWay adapter.
