If you install more than one UltraPort, UltraPort SI or UltraPort Express host card, or install 
additional cards at a later date, the following warning messages will be displayed (they 
appear immediately following the driver initialisation messages shown on 

Note

Display of these messages and update of Speed Node and Init files only occurs 
once after installation of additional cards. This takes place during system start-up.

 

The speed node file has been updated to include 
the revised number of ports.

Your old Speed node file is retained with the 
file name shown in the message. 'nnnnnnnn' 
is a unique number so that previous Speed 
node files are not lost on updating.

 

You now have additional entries in the Speed 
init file, existing entries are retained 
unchanged. The automatic init file update is 
necessary to make any additional nodes 
available in the Speed Port Configuration 
tool.

Hint

If you have modified your Speed node file, (for example you may have changed the default 
permission for security reasons), you may wish to re-instate the previous node set-up for 
existing Speed ports. 

If you have not modified your Speed node file or do not require to retain the old settings you 
may safely delete the file shown in the first message.
