Appendix B BIOS Setup
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) provides a basic level of
communication between the processor and peripherals. In
addition, the BIOS also contains code for various advanced
features applied to the PXIe-3985 controller. The BIOS setup
program includes menus for configuring settings and enabling
PXIe-3985 controller features.
B.1 Starting the BIOS
1. Power on or reboot the PXIe-3985 controller.
2. Press the <Delete> key when the controller beeps. This
should be concurrent with the main startup screen. The
BIOS setup program loads after a short delay.
3. The Main menu is displayed when you first enter the
BIOS setup program.
The main BIOS setup menu is the first screen that you can navi-
gate. Each main BIOS setup menu option is described in this
user’s guide.
The Main BIOS setup menu screen has two main frames. The left
frame displays all the options that can be configured. “Grayed”
options cannot be configured, “Blue” options can be.
The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key legend is
an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected
in the left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will
accompany it.
CAUTION:
Changing BIOS settings may result in incorrect operation and
possibly an inability to boot. If this occurs, follow the instruc-
tions in Section 2.2.5: Clearing CMOS to clear CMOS and
restore default settings. In general, do not change a BIOS set-
ting unless you are absolutely certain of the consequences.
NOTE:
NOTE:
In most cases, the < Delete > key is used to invoke the setup
screen. There are several cases that use other keys, such as <
F1 >, < F2 >, and so on.
