CR-574-B (quadruple speed, tray loading type)
2. Device driver name:
CR_ATAPI.SYS (Version 5.11)
3. Driver description:
[/D:xxxxxxx] ---> Device name option
example: DEVICE=CR_ATAPI.SYS /D:MSCD001
*[/P:nnn] ---> ATAPI base I/O Port Address(hex) option
ex.)DEVICE=CR_ATAPI.SYS /D:MSCD000 /P:nnn
nnn==1F0, 170, 1E8 or 168
Primary connection: /P:1F0
Secondary connection: /P:170
Tertiary connection: /P:1E8(Sound Blaster IDE)
Quaternary connection: /P:168(Sound Blaster IDE)
*[/I:xx] ---> Interrupt number option
ex.)DEVICE=CR_ATAPI.SYS /D:MSCD000 /I:xx
Primary connection: xx=/I:10,11,12,14 or 15
Secondary connection: xx=/I:10,11,12,14 or 15
If you use Sound Blaster IDE, please set following
Tertiary connection: xx=/I:10,11,12,14 or 15
Quaternary connection: xx=/I:10,11,12,14 or 15
*[/W:n] ---> Waiting value option
When PC reads data from CD-ROM drive, Driver insert waiting
value into read cycle one by one.
If you are using a PC that does not support IOCHRDY, please set
this value(waiting value).
example: DEVICE=CR_ATAPI.SYS /D:MSCD000 /W:n
n==0, 1, 2, ... 255
(106usec/1 wait in 486DX2 66MHz)
*[/Q] ---> Non stop option
Non stop(no message <A>bort, <R>etry) in initializing driver.
ex.)DEVICE=CR_ATAPI.SYS /D:MSCD000 /Q
* : You can omit this option.

(D) OS/2 2.1, 2.11 and OS/2 Warp device driver support:
*************************************************************
1. Supported CD-ROM drive:
CR-572-B (double speed, tray loading type)
CR-574-B (quadruple speed, tray loading type)
2. Device driver name:
MKECR57X.ADD (Version 1.11)
3. Driver description:
*[/V] ---> Verbose Mode option
Displays controller status and drive type during OS/2
initialization.
*[/A:n] ---> Adapter Number option
Adapter 0 has default parameters for the primary adapter.
Adapter 1 has default parameters for the secondary adapter.
*[/P:nnn] ---> ATAPI base I/O Port Address(hex) option
This parameter overrides the default base I/O port address for
the adapter indicated. The default I/O address for primary is
(1F0) and for seconday is (170).
If you set this parameter, then, you should set /I: parameter.
*[/I:xx] ---> Interrupt number option
This parameter overrides the default IRQ Number for the adapter
indicated.The default IRQ level for primary is (14) and for
secondary is (15).If you set this parameter, then, you should set
/P: parameter.
*[/NI] ---> No Interrupt Mode( Polling Mode ) option

*[/IOR] ---> I/O Channel Ready Supported Mode option
For the adapter with I/O channel ready, the MKECR57X.ADD driver
can designate the fastest read mode.
* : You can omit this option.
Examples:
; scan to primary and secondary adapter.
BASEDEV=MKECR57X.ADD /V
; scan to secondary adapter with I/O channel ready.
BASEDEV=MKECR57X.ADD /V /A:1 /IOR
; scan to another adapter(I/O address 1E8 IRQ 11) with I/O channel ready.
BASEDEV=MKECR57X.ADD /V /P:1E8 /I:11 /IOR
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CAUTION:
OS/2 Warp has ATAPI CD-ROM filter driver(IBMIDECD.FLT). If problems occur
using the IBMIDECD filter, modify your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
rem BASEDEV=IBMIDECD.FLT
At the end of the file, add the following statement
BASEDEV=MKECR57X.ADD /V
and copy to root directory on the OS/2 system drive.
In this time, if the CR-ROM drive is attached as master to primary or
secondary, modify your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file as follows:
BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD /A:x /I
The /A parameter refers to the adapter number that the CD-ROM is attached
to.The /I parameter indicates that the IBM1S506 driver should not attempt
to initialize the adapter indicated.
