The motherboard frequency is adjusted through the DIP switches.
The white block represents the switch position. The illustration below
shows the ON and OFF positions of the switches.
The option to set the CPU core bus frequency multiple is available only
on unlocked CPUs. If you are using a locked CPU, setting the switches
does not produce any effect.
Set the CPU frequency only to the recommended settings. Frequencies
other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies are not guaranteed to
be stable.
The default CPU external frequency is 100 MHz. If your CPU supports
200/166/133 MHz external frequency, adjust the DSW settings before
installing the motherboard to the chassis.
The DSW switch tells the clock generator what frequency to send the
CPU. This allows the selection of the CPUs external frequency (or bus
clock). The bus clock multiplied by the frequency multiple equals the
CPUs internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed).
