General Software® BIOS
The General Software® BIOS in CPB902 is an adapted version of a standard BIOS for IBM PC
AT-compatible personal computers equipped with Intel®x86 and compatible processors. BIOS
provides low-level support for the central processing, memory, and I/O system units.

power is switched off.
