Setting the Serial Interface
The built-in serial port in your computer is set to act as the
primary port (COM1). If you install an option card that
provides an additional serial port, that port automatically
becomes secondary (COM2). However, if you want the port
on the card to be COM1, select
COM2
for the built-in port.
If you install a card (or cards) that provide two additional
serial ports and you want them to act as the primary and
secondary ports, select
Disable
for the built-in port.
Note
Be sure to set any jumper(s) on the card(s) to indicate
whether you want the port(s) to be primary or secondary.
Setting the Disk Drive Controllers
If you are using the standard drives that came with your
computer, the hard disk drive controller (HDC) and diskette
drive controller (FDC) should be set to
Enable.
However, if you install an option card that provides a
controller for a diskette drive or hard disk drive, you need to
disable the built-in controller.
