4.5.2ARCNET PARAMETERS
The ARCNET parameters determine the personality of this node and the characteristics of the network
such as:
All nodes connected to the same network should have same settings for the ARCNET parameters.
4.5.3PARAMETER LIST
As part of the D20.H definition file, each of the parameters is defined. The parameter definition defines
which parameter number is associated with the parameter name. It is suggested that the application
programmer use the parameter name and not the parameter number. See the application examples listed
at the end of this manual for an sample use of the parameter definitions.

Description
COM2002x base address of register page Least
Significant Byte. Address of the register page is
the I/O or memory address to which the
COM2002x is mapped. The LSB and MSB make
up the base address for the COM2002x registers.
COM2002x base address of register page Most
Significant Byte.
For combined MSB / LSB parameters the range is
0x0000 - 0xFFFF. The valid values depend on the
host system.
