AWS34XX.SYS

From EDM2

Emulation of 3420, 3480, 3490, 3490E drives on 3803, 3480/3490 units, using SCSI tape drives.

DEVICE=AWS34XX.SYS /ID=xxxxxxx
/ID=cccccc
Assigns the device manager name, used in the EMIO Configurator and DEVMAP file. The three supported values are AWS34X0, AWS34X1, andAWS34X2.
/T
Displays diagnostic tape device information during start-up, showing which tape devices are available and confirming which device was requested and allocated by AWS34XX.SYS. CONFIG.SYS processing will be paused until you press Enter.
The /T is a very useful option that should be used if you add an additional SCSI adapter or tape device. It will help you figure out what devices the AWS34XX device driver detects, and which parameters to put in CONFIG.SYS. After you have figured out what values of id,ai to place on the AWS34XX line, then you should delete the/T so the system doesn’t pause and wait for Enter every time it is rebooted.

Examples

DEVICE=d:\P390\AWS34XX.SYS   id,ai /ID=AWS34X1
DEVICE=d:\P390\AWS34XX.SYS  /ID=AWS34X0
DEVICE=d:\P390\AWS34XX.SYS  /ID=AWS34X1
DEVICE=d:\P390\AWS34XX.SYS  /ID=AWS34X2
