BIOS Setup Information
AMDY-7002 is equipped with the Phoenix BIOS stored in Flash ROM. These BIOS has
a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration
easily. This type of information is stored in CMOS RAM so that it is retained during
power-off periods. When system is turned on, AMDY-7002 communicates with
peripheral devices and checks its hardware resources against the configuration
information stored in the CMOS memory. If any error is detected, or the CMOS
parameters need to be initially defined, the diagnostic program will prompt the user
to enter the SETUP program. Some errors are significant enough to abort the start up.
