POWER-UP PROCEDURE
The following C3 Maestro power-up procedure is
recommended:
1. If the PC and/or monitor are equipped with a
voltage selector switch, verify the switches are
positioned correctly. The power supply within the
Audio Tower automatically switches itself and
therefore no voltage selection switch exists.
2. Verify all power switches are in the off position.
3. Connect the PC, video display monitor and the
Audio Tower to a 120 or 230 Vac source. Some
computers are equipped with a receptacle on their
rear panel for the monitor's ac power connection.
Refer to the PC and monitor documentation as
necessary. Extension cords should not be used with
the C3 Maestro console system.
4. Verify all equipment is properly grounded.
5. Power-up the Audio Tower.
6. Power-up the PC and its monitor.
7. Continue with the software installation and set-up
procedures that follow.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION AND
SET-UP PROCEDURE
NOTE
Unless otherwise noted, all procedures in this
manual should be performed in the order presented.
PC CMOS SET-UP PROGRAM
C3 Maestro software is factory-installed on the PC's
hard disk drive and the software is configured properly for
standard installations. Therefore, during a typical console
configuration, the information in this section may be
bypassed.
All PCs used with the C3 Maestro store start-up
configurations in CMOS memory. This information is read
by the computer's BIOS and it may be changed by executing
a set-up program during the PC's boot process. Execute the
PC's set-up program only if a built-in (main board) COM1
port must be disabled/enabled or if documentation included
with the PC deems it necessary for some other reason.
NOTE
Time and date will be correctly set by the
CEC/IMC Manager (MOM PC) when the console
is on-line with the CEC/IMC.
Hewlett-Packard Vectra 25N & 486SX/25
Typically, the set-up program is started by pressing
<F2> when prompted with "
For Setup press F2
now
" or "
Setup=F2
" during the boot process. COM1 is
disabled by setting "
Serial Ports/Port A
" to "
Off
".
An HP 486SX/25 computer should also have its "
Serial
Port B
" set to "
COM2 2F8H INT3
". Ensure change(s)
are saved before rebooting/resetting, typically by pressing
the <F3> function key.
Data General Dasher 386SX
This PC's set-up program is started by pressing
<Ctrl><Alt><Ins> during the boot process. There is no need
to disable COM1 since the built-in port supports both RS-
422 and RS-232.
Experience has shown these computers can lose their
CMOS settings on rare occasions during power-ups.
Therefore, the following configuration information is
presented:
Hard Disk 1:
Type 17
Base Memory:
640 KB
Extended Memory:
1408 MB
Board Memory:
640 KB
Memory Relocation:
Enabled
The Logic Board will not function properly if the
"
Memory Relocation
" setting is disabled.
Data General 386SX/25A (Acer)
The set-up program is started by pressing
<Ctrl><Alt><Esc> during the boot process. COM1 is
disabled by selecting the "
System Security Setup
"
and then setting "
Serial Port1 Control
" to
"
[Disable]
". Press <Esc> twice to save the change and
reboot.
Compaq 386S
This PC's set-up program is not used to disable the
built-in COM1 port. Instead, COM1 is disabled by setting
the main board's DIP switch SW2 positions 4 and 5 both
"ON". Refer to the PC's documentation for additional
details.
