lnstallation / Support Tips

Power

This computer has an automatic input voltage sensing power supply (between 115V, for USA and Canadian use, and 23OV, for use in other countries). There is no manual switch

Setup

-When installing a hard disk drive, be sure to consult the drive type table for the drive type parameters (geometry) which fit the drive you are installing. You can also select a type with parameters having lesser values, as long as they do not exceed the maximum capacity (in MB) of your drive. If there is no match for your drive, enter the exect parameters using the User Defined option.

Software Problems

-When installing a copy-protected software package, first try the installation at high speed. If this does not work properly, try switching to low speed for the installation If you are still unable to load the program at high speed, try loading at low speed and then switching to high speed.

For the Equity 486DX2/50 PLUS, high speed is 50 MHz. For the Equity 48&3X/25 PLUS, high speed is 25 MHz. Both systems simulate 8 MHz at low speed.

-When using a software package that uses a key disk as its copy-protection method, try loading it at high speed. If this does not work, enable Auto Speed in Setup on the Reference diskette.

Power-on Password

-Make sure that you do not forget the Power-on password you set up. If you do, it wilI be necessary to disable it by moving jumper JP5 on the main circuit board to position B.

Mouse and Keyboard

-When connecting the mouse and keyboard, be careful to plug them into the proper ports. Although they are physically identical, they are not interchangeable, and damage may occur to the ports or the main board.

Installing Floppy Disk Drives

-When installing a floppy disk drive as drive B, remember to set the drive select jumper to the second position and attach the pass-through connector on the floppy drive controller cable to the drive, not to the end connector.

-If the drive does not function normally, make sure that the drive type has been correctly selected in Setup. Also check that any necessary drivers have been installed correctly.

-If you have installed two floppy disk drives, remember that the computer will boot from drive B when a disk is inserted indriveBandnodi.skisinsertedindriveA.

Installing Hard Disk Drives

-It is recommended that a l&bit, AT-type hard disk controller be used if you are installing a drive that cannot use the embedded IDE interface. lnstalling a 16-bit interface wilI override the embedded IDE port and disable it, freeimg the standard base l/O address and lRQ(s).
