+
+This document describes the eicon driver for the
+Eicon.Diehl active ISDN cards.
+
+It is meant to be used with isdn4linux, an ISDN link-level module for Linux.

+
+NOTE : Since the eicon driver is still experimental, this README file
+       may be incomplete and not up to date.
+
+
+However, the driver should work under following conditions :
+
+Supported Cards
+---------------
+
+- S-Card ISA
+- SX-Card ISA
+- SXn-Card ISA
+- SCOM-Card ISA
+- Quadro-Card ISA
+- S2M-Card ISA
+- DIVA Server BRI/PCI 2M
+- DIVA Server PRI/PCI 2M (9M 23M 30M)
+  (Only analog modem functions of the DSPs are currently implemented)
+
+ISDN D-Channel Protocols
+------------------------
+
+- ETSI (Euro-DSS1) 
+- 1TR6 (German ISDN) *not testet*
+
+
+
+You can load the module simply by using the insmod or modprobe function :
+
+  insmod eicon [id=driverid] [membase=<membase>] [irq=<irq>]
+
+
+The module will automatically probe the PCI-cards. If the id-options
+is omitted, the driver will assume 'eicon0' for the first pci card and
+increases the digit with each further card. With a given driver-id
+the module appends a number starting with '0'.
+
+For ISA-cards you have to specify membase, irq and id. If id or
+membase is missing/invalid, the driver will not be loaded except
+PCI-cards were found. Additional ISA-cards and irq/membase changes
+can be done with the eiconctrl utility.
+
+After loading the module, you have to download the protocol and
+dsp-code by using the eiconctrl utility of isdn4k-utils.
+
+
+Example for loading and starting a BRI card with E-DSS1 Protocol.
+
+	eiconctrl [-d DriverId] load etsi
+
+
+Example for loading and starting a PRI card with E-DSS1 Protocol.
+
+	eiconctrl [-d DriverId] load etsi -s2 -n
+
+
+Details about using the eiconctrl utility are in 'man eiconctrl'
+or will be printed by starting eiconctrl without any parameters.
+
+
+
+Any reports about bugs, errors and even wishes are welcome.
+
+
+Have fun !
