Setting the Auto Speed Function
The Equity 386SX can operate at 16 MHz or simulate an
8 MHz operating speed. The 16 MHz speed is high and the
simulated
8
MHz speed is low.
You
can use the
CPU SPEED
switch on the computer’s front panel to select either speed.
(See “Selecting the Operating Speed” in Chapter 3.)
You’ll probably use high speed for almost all your operations.
Some copy-protected application programs, however, require
the computer to run at the low speed while accessing the
program on a diskette. These programs also usually require you
to leave a key disk-the diskette that contains the copy
protection-in the diskette drive. If you use a copy-protected
program often, you may want to enable the Auto speed
function.
