WaveLAN ISA Adapter WaveLAN ISA Adapter
WaveLAN ISA Adapter
The WaveLAN ISA Adapter, is a standard
“PC Card to ISA bus” adapter that you can
use to install WaveLAN/IEEE PC Cards into
computer devices that do not have a factory-
installed PC Card slot.
The WaveLAN ISA Adapter supports two I/O
addresses:
• 3E0-3E1
• 3E2-3E3 (factory-set default)
For most computers you do not need to
change the factory-set strapping of the
jumper (shown below) that determines the I/O
address.
NOTE:
The WaveLAN ISA Adapter was
especially designedfor WaveLAN/IEEE
PC Cards. Although the adapter will
support most standard Type II PC
Cards as well, using this adapter in
combination with other PC cards is not
supported.
1. Inserting the Adapter
Unpack the WaveLAN IEEE 802.11 ISA Card
kit and verify that all items are present:
• WaveLAN ISA Adapter card.
• Instruction flyer (this document).
If any of the items described appear to be
damaged or missing, please contact your
supplier.

Failing to do so may lead to an electric
shock and cause damage to your
computer and adapter.
