type ES P EED
only and
press

<+>

To change the speed when you see this display, press the +
or - key; then press

The processor speed you set remains in effect until you

command, or the SETUP program; or until you press the
RESET

Entering the ESPEED command In a batch file
You may want to run the ESPEED program by including the
command in a batch file. For example, if you have a program
called SLOWDOWN which requires a slower processor speed,
you could include the following commands in a batch file to
start the SLOWDOWN program:
ESPEED L
SLOWDOWN
You could name the batch file SLOW.BAT. Whenever you
need to run the SLOWDOWN program, insert the program
diskette in drive A. Then type
SLOW
and press
Enter. The
computer changes the speed to low and starts the
SLOWDOWN program.
See your MS-DOS manuals for instructions on creating and
using batch files.
