message.
Peripheral Setup
Serial 1: Enabled
Serial 2: Enabled
Parallel: Enabled
FDC: Enabled
HDC: Enabled
l Serial 1
If you’d like to the on board serial port 1 for COM 1, set
this option “Enable”.
But, when you install the external
card to use another serial port for COM 1, you should
select “Disable” on this option to disable the on board
serial port.
l Serial 2
Set this option “Enable” if you want to use the on board
serial port 2 for COM2. Like as serial 1, you should also
disable this option when you install the external card to
use another serial port for COM2.
Note
Although you need only the on board serial 2 port for
COM2, do not disable the serial 1. If you disable serial 1
and enable aerial 2 when you don’t have any external I/0
adapter, the serial 2 automatically set to CDM1.
l Parallel
If you use on board parallel port, enable this option.
However if you want to use another parallel port using
external I/O card, you should disable this option.
