Appendix A
Setting the DIP Switches
The DIP switch settings on the Apex provide your computer
with information about its configuration. Each time you turn on
your Apex, it checks the settings to determine the type of
monitor and the type of interfaces in use. The DIP switches are
located on the back panel of your main unit:
These switches are preset for you by the manufacturer. However,
read this appendix to become familiar with the DIP switch
settings and to check that the settings match your system’s
setup. If you add optional devices to your system, you may need
to alter the DIP switch settings.
NOTE
Set the DIP switches only while your computer is off. Software
programs check the settings only when you turn on the Apex, so
changing the settings while a program is running has no effect.
The Apex has four DIP switches. To turn a DIP switch on or off,
use a hard, thin object, such as a small screwdriver, to flip the
switch to the appropriate setting.
