PREFACE
The aim of the document is to describes the Ethernet adapters customization for PCFS families that are
connected to HC3.4 or HC4 NE technology (SSP LINUX IP) and his Ethernet environment. The concerned
families are : S14 (OMT) and S15 (OMT).

1 PREREQUISITES
The PCFS is installed with windows XP. You will have the miscellaneous PCFS CD-ROM.
The Ethernet adapters are Plug and Play : they were recognized at the time of the installation of Windows (or
when installed) and their driver automatically installed.

If this adapter do not exists go to 2.3 chapter.
If it exists, this is the connection to the Ethernet Switch number 2. It is possible to recognize it by unplugging
the cable to the Ethernet switch # 2 : in Network connection window, the adapter appears disconnected (with
a X). Note that the IP addresses used (1 and 2 ) are the same for Switch #1 connection and Switch #2
st nd
