10. SQUARE A7 : SET UP
This mode is designed to enable you to set up board positions to solve chess problems or to set
handicaps by removing or entering a piece, as well as changing the positions of pieces. In SET UP
mode the computer's legality check as to the movement of pieces is disabled and you can enter,
remove or change positions of any piece. However you cannot set up an incorrect position, e.g.
play without both Kings or with more than one King for each colour . . . etc.
