Changing the System Configuration with SETUP
Your PG 740 configuration is set for working with the software supplied with
the unit. You should only change the preset values if you have modified your
PG 740 in any way or if a fault occurs when the unit is powered up
.
The SETUP program is in the ROM-BIOS. Information on the system
configuration is stored in the battery-backed RAM of the PG 740.
You can use SETUP to set the hardware configuration (for example, type of
hard disk) and define the system characteristics (for example, CPU speed).
You can also use SETUP to set the time of day and date.
If incorrect SETUP data are recognized when booting the system, the BIOS
prompts you to
S
start SETUP by pressing F2 or
S
continue booting by pressing F1.
On completion of the startup test, the BIOS requests you to start the SETUP
program with the following screen prompt:
PRESS
<
F2

to enter SETUP
Start SETUP as follows:
1. Reset your PG 740 (warm or cold restart).
2. Press the F2 key as long as the BIOS prompt is on the screen.
The F9 key sets all the default parameters.
The various menus and submenus are listed on the following pages. You can
get all the necessary information you need for the SETUP entry selected from
the “Item Specific Help” part of the relevant menu.
