The board driver is implemented as 2000 kernel device driver and is equipped with a protocol-indepen-dent device-interface (OPEN, READ, WRITE, CLOSE).

For synchronization of the available driver commands, 2000 standard mechanisms are supported, enabling a trouble-free integration of the driver into the 2000-multitasking/multithreading-concept:

Synchronous (waiting) driver commands can be executed in separate threads, as no CPU load is required in the waiting mode.

Asynchronous (non waiting) driver commands use system event flags. Therefore, they can be easily integrated into event controlled environments.

For ISA-bus boards the driver supports the access in the 1 MB and 15 MB address range. If various boards are operated, a shared interrupt is supported. This guarantees an optimum use of the available system resources. The simultaneous use of ISA-bus and PCI boards is also possible.
