LANCP$HELP.HLB  —  SET  DEVICE  Qualifiers (Ethernet Devices), /MEDIA
       /MEDIA=value

    Selects the cable connection. Normally, the selection is made
    during device initialization using a limited autosensing
    algorithm that selects twisted pair, but fails over to AUI
    (Attachment Unit Interface) if twisted pair does not appear to be
    functional. Thereafter, a cabling change would require a reboot
    of the system to take effect. This command allows you to change
    the selection without rebooting.

    Acceptable values are AUI (10Base2, 10Base5), TWISTEDPAIR
    (10BaseT), and AUTOSENSE (reperform the limited autosense
    algorithm). The default value is AUTOSENSE.

    Some devices, such as the DE435, require a jumper change on the
    Ethernet card to switch between 10Base2 and 10Base5 (thinwire and
    thickwire). Other devices, such as the DE434, DE436, and DE500,
    have only twisted pair connections.
