Advanced Information for PC Cards /NOBEEP /STBTIME:n /MDRV:n /EMS /TSIZE:n Specifies not to beep when a storage card is installed. When this parameter is not set, you will hear a beep every time a storage card is installed into the PC Card slot. Specifies the time (from 1 to 21 minutes) until entering standby mode. When the ATA card is not accessed for the time specified by this parameter, the ATA card enters standby mode (only when your ATA card supports standby mode). When this parameter is not specified, standby mode for the ATA card is disabled. Specifies the number of extra drives that can be used in addition to the number of PC Card slots available for the PCMCIA storage devices. When this parameter is not specified, no extra drive is given to the device driver. The extra drives can be activated by the PCMCIA ATA Card Mount Utility. When this parameter is specified, the device driver uses the EMS resources if they are usable. When this parameter is not specified, the device driver does not use the EMS resources. You can specify the size of the table for the device driver data in the resident memory area. When the EMS resources are not usable, the data tables are created in the resident memory area. When the EMS resources are usable, this parameter is ignored. The table size depends on the variable n and is calculated as follows: table size = n × 1024 bytes Specify n in a decimal number. When this parameter is not specified, the device driver creates the table with n=4. Select the variable n depending on the total capacity of the Flash card. The following is an example of the relationship between the variable n and the total capacity of the Flash card: Up to 10MB: n=4 Up to 20MB: n=6 Up to 40MB: n=10 Appendix B.

Advanced Information for PC Cards
/NOBEEP
Specifies not to beep when a storage card is
installed.
When this parameter is not set, you will
hear a beep every time a storage card is installed
into the PC Card slot.
/STBTIME:
n
Specifies the time (from 1 to 21 minutes) until
entering standby mode.
When the ATA card is not
accessed for the time specified by this parameter, the
ATA card enters standby mode (only when your ATA
card supports standby mode).
When this parameter
is not specified, standby mode for the ATA card is
disabled.
/MDRV:
n
Specifies the number of extra drives that can be used
in addition to the number of PC Card slots available
for the PCMCIA storage devices.
When this
parameter is not specified, no extra drive is given to
the device driver.
The extra drives can be activated
by the PCMCIA ATA Card Mount Utility.
/EMS
When this parameter is specified, the device driver
uses the EMS resources if they are usable.
When
this parameter is not specified, the device driver does
not use the EMS resources.
/TSIZE:
n
You can specify the size of the table for the device
driver data in the resident memory area.
When the
EMS resources are not usable, the data tables are
created in the resident memory area.
When the EMS
resources are usable, this parameter is ignored.
The
table size depends on the variable
n
and is
calculated as follows:
table size =
n
×
1024 bytes
Specify
n
in a decimal number.
When this parameter
is not specified, the device driver creates the table
with
n
=4.
Select the variable
n
depending on the
total capacity of the Flash card.
The following is an
example of the relationship between the variable
n
and the total capacity of the Flash card:
Up to 10MB:
n
=4
Up to 20MB:
n
=6
Up to 40MB:
n
=10
