MicroDrive Turbo 6 ReActiveMicro
There is nothing needed to use the
MicroDrive Turbo
in Slot 7. It is already defaulted
to Your Card . There is also no need to change the Startup Option if it is set to Slot
7
or
Scan
.
If, however you want to use the MicroDrive Turbo in Slot 2 you will need to change
the Slot setting to Your Card .
And if you would like the Apple II
GS
to boot the
MicroDrive Turbo
in Slot 2 then you
will also need to change the
Startup
Option to
Slot 2
.
Be sure to press

when done to save any changes.
☛
The
Startup
Option in the Control Panel allows you to control how the Apple
II
GS
looks for bootable devices when powered on. Scan will tell the Computer
to look from Slot 7 to Slot 1.
☛
Selecting Slot X, ( X refers to the Slot number) will tell the computer to ONLY
boot that Slot. If no bootable devices are found, then the Apple II
GS
will report
Check startup device !
☛
You can however tell the II
GS
to boot from another Slot by breaking into
BASIC (hold down the

key and press the
 Reset
key), then type
PR#X and press the

key, ( X refers to the Slot number).
☛
The
MicroDrive Turbo
allows the II
GS
to skip trying to boot it by holding down
the

key on boot.
