Post-installation Setup

After you install an option card (and replace the main unit’s cover and reconnect the power cord and peripherals), you may need to run the Setup program on the reference diskette to update the configuration information. For example, if you add a hard disk, you need to tell the computer that it has the additional drive. See the Diagnostics section of this manual for instruc- tions.

You may also need to add some commands in the configuration file on your system disk. See your MS-DOS manual for instructions.

When you finish installing an option and reconfiguring the system, you should test the option if possible. Some options come with their own test programs, and you can test others using the diagnostics programs on the reference diskette that came with the Equity II+. These include:

Expansion memory

80287 numeric coprocessor

Serial and parallel ports

Monitors and display adapters

Disk drives.

See the Diagnostics section of this manual for instructions.
